Hello everyone!
This time I'm bringing you a pack of eight modified versione of "The Unknown" map. Each map is based on the rms that already exists in the original game but each of them has a set of triggers that add a twist to it.
I also added a randomly selected lighting setting. They vary whether it's a hot, medium or cold map and for each temperature there are nine different light settings.
If you already downloaded the maps from other thready, please note that I updated all of them so they might not be compatible with these versions in multiplayer.
Enjoy!
1. Age of Humans
This map comes with a ban of almost all myth units. You still get them from aging up and these few are very strong so make sure to make good use of them. You can still use favor since it was added ad an additional cost to heroes and siege weapons.
2. Army Alarmy
A map I already uploaded to this forum. All units take up less population and are a bit weaker that usually. Defensive buildings are buffed a lot, also you generally have a higher popcap.
3. de-op
This map disables most "powerful" units like Age 4 myths, Elephants etc. Balancing was very difficult and I carefully made sure that no culture would turn out to be too strong but it's not guaranteed so let me know if you have suggestions here.
4. Heroism
On this map you won't be able to go past the heroic age. It's very straightforwardso not much to say about it.
5. Notech
This is a very experimental map where all techs except for ages are disabley. Myth units cost more favor to make up for their strength.
6. Relictime
This map has no relics placed but ALL relics (except the pegasus, lions and monkeys) active for all players right from the start. The Ai seems to like that a lot and tends to be strong here.
7. Simply Defensive
A map where most defensive upgrades are already active right from the start. Also the four myth defense upgrades (Athenian Wall, Safeguard, Sundried Mudbrick and Titan Shield) are active for all players.
8. TitanMania
You like playing with titans but once you used it the game is boring? Well say no more, I got the right thing for you! This map enables you to instantly place another Titan Gate once your Titan is dead or the current gate is destroyed. You still have to research the first one normally and the health of Titans is halved to 3500.
Note: normally Ai don't use the Titan Gate power multiple times so unless you have a modified Ai this is more of a multiplayer scrpit.
Update (21.12.2021):
9. Speedy
This is a map that takes the name to a new level. Player 1 can use chat commands to modify the speed of all units on the map. It also affects range and LOS of units. Higher speeds help units that are usually slower like siege weapons and giants, slower speeds help briniging out advantages of cavalry.
So these are all maps contained in this pack. Have fun and let me know what you think!
