This is a 5 player map that is designed to to be fair to all players. All players start locations are supplied with more than enough Iron, Stone, Forestry and Natural Defenses. It will not be so easy to just walk into anyones base due to the limited access routes and good defensible postions. Sit back, relax and build your castle well.
Tested this online with a couple of friends and it ran great. For my first map I sure did one hell of a job I would say. Enjoy.
If any of you find anything wrong with this map I would really appreciate the feedback.
Playability: 5
Great for a LOOONG game! Pick the maximum number of opponents to get the maximum thrill!
Balance: 5
Equally balanced and ready for large elaborate castles. Be careful grabbing estates. You have to keep them!
Creativity: 3
So So, as far as creativity goes. Have seen this type of map before. This one is done exceptionally well but again: Seize the choke points and you're virtually home free.
Map Design: 4
It's great if you want to play a long game but after the initial AI rush there isn't alot of attacks going on. The choke points make the map fairly easy once the econ is running and the knights are in production... A bit repetitive: Hopping (and slaying) from estate to estate...
Story/Instructions: 3
Was there any? Who cares?
Additional Comments:
There are similar maps out there that are done better but this was a fun diversion. I will definitely be keeping this one!
