    Why not play TA inside empires!
    Disclaimer: This map never actually even got started properly I just heightmapped it. I was gunna work on it more but I'm terrible at hammer so I gave up.

    Is that the gayest map in spring?

    You know the one with the two dick shaped mountains pointing at each other?

    It would be but I can't work hammer for shit to finish it, and nobody would be bothered making it.

    Also it wouldn't be, it's too big to work in empires.

    I removed about 50% of the res nodes and kept the more important strategic ones.

    I more meant the entire scale, empires is much smaller scale than TA.

    True, but the attack routes can work the same, and because TA combat is calculated real time (like empires) the height advantage and map balance will hold up with our system too.

    Ehh, not really, in TA people can actually hit, in empires people generally can't.

    It isn't like TA where you can build a line of defences and expect them to hold for a while, in empires choke points are what matter, preferably ones long enough to accomodate some melee between tanks.

    Thats why I added the bridge in the centre, the natural cliffs also work to funnel tanks while water allows for infantry mobility and hiding places.

    The map definitely needs foliage though.
