This is a two map pack. First map lets you start in any corner up to four players. The four outer estates have oil, the five inner estates have iron and stone. The second map makes this a five player map by making the middle estate playable. This can be a very challenging map, especially if started at Duke level! ;)

One of the my most frequently played maps. Good job.
Nice comment,but not a proper review. Review retracted, but left for demonstrative reasons. Be sure to read the Review Guidelines and write more to support your scores by citing features from the map, gameplay, and story.

It was a fairly straight forward map to Play. It is certainly fun and tough. I played with the maximum number of opponents and was constantly harrassed. After gaining my first estate I had to fight to keep it. There were many defensible paths to each estate and a well planned army was required to keep estates. My first crack at this map required two, five hour days to become king...
Balance: 3
Creatively balanced...Not all estates start with the same available resources but each starting position has it's unique advantages. Everyone starts with lots of wood but if you want stone or iron you're going to have to get nasty and take it from estates towards the middle of the map...

Sometimes simple is perfect. A good map has lots of estates and good starting positions. While the eye candy is fairly elemental the battles are raged in a strategic nirvana...
Map Design: 4
A two map set with a variety of good strategic positions... Highly recommended! A+++
Story/Instructions: 3
Other than how to unpack the map I don't really think there were any. The description is what made me download the map...

Hi thomasp69,
I really like your map and it's a kingmaker with lots of space for building yet the terrain is perfect at the same time.
Would you allow me to post this on my own stronghold 2 website?
