Barrier Ridge is a new random map for Single-player or Multiplayer use. Several people had asked me to re-create the AOM map Jotunheim for AOE3, so here is my version of a map that plays like that old standard. Of course walls will not last as long in this game with the various siege options available. This is a map only for 2 team play - FFA play will possibly give you a really screwed up start.
The map is rectangular, with players starting along the more distant ends of the longer dimension, which is 1.6x the shorter dimension (and size varies, like the standard ES maps, by player number). This map is only slightly larger than the standard ES maps, and smaller than the ES 'large' series. There is a central mountain ridge which is broken only by a single pass, the only way to gain access to the enemy on the opposite side. |
