 "Wisdom is gained at the Commanders Table.  Come to feast, and to learn."

 MAP TOPOGRAPHY:
 ============

 I have included C_A_P's excellent Metal World tilesets, in this battlemap upload.  That is why the file is so large for downloading.  Also are included his anims, and other files.

 T
 This battlemap has moderate variable winds, with thermal vents for war. Good metal values were used, along with higher tidal.  Normal gravity.

 Incredible detail has gone into the creation of them.  For example, meticulous use of the "void height" tool has been used on the platform, seawall, and track facings.  There are no ramps on any of these.  Everything on these battlemaps has been gone over and re-checked for accuracy and quality.  There is a lot of diversity in them, enjoy what you see and experience.

 These battlemaps are used in both Multiplayer and in Skirmish Mode.  You can have any type of battle option available to you on this battle map, whether it be naval, air, or land battles.  Everyone can have a full and complete base to operate out of.  This is a battle map you can thoroughly enjoy for learning the strategic and fine art of war.  You are challenged for logistics, supplies, planning, and skillful combat.  It was designed for the classic and full scale game of warfare.
  
 COMBINATION TILE SETS USED:

 C_A_P's Metalworld Water tilesets, metal features, and Oxygen features.

 You are going to find that C_A_P's tiles are fun to work with, and can give you a world of new options for battlemap creations.  He did a quality job when he created these.  Pass these around to others so they can create as well.

 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
 ============

 This battlemap has three levels of playing settings: Network/Hard, Medium, and Easy with their own AI's in Skirmish mode.  This is an excellent battlemap for Multiplayer use by groups and clans.  Have fun with this one.

 Execute the "AI.zip" and put in your C:\Cavedog\Totala\AI file the following AI's:

AiLaHo Advanced AI.txt
H A L - Multiversal War AI.txt
McnTerra.txt

 Place the additional .ufo and .ccx files from the "Totala.zip" file into your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory.

 I do recommend you get the 500 unit patch at TAMEC, and the 5k patch.  One note concerning the 5k patch, when installed, do click on the "patch.bat" found in your your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory.  I have discovered the the 500 unit patch works well with the NO CD program (found at TAMEC), but the 5k patch does require you to use the Total Annihilation CD for use.  You will push the limits of the 500 unit patch to annihilate your opponents.  The 5k patch with 5000 units is for exceptionally fast systems. 

 You must have, in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory, either The Core Contingency or Battle Tactics expansion packs installed in order to use this battle map.

 Final Note and piece of advice.   Just pray that you don't get caught in the middle.
