 "The perspective of things, may not always be what they seem to be."

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

 What I have created for you, in using C_A_P's excellent Metal World tilesets, is the KrogAir Trilogy battlemaps for your use.  You will find in this trilogy "KrogAirAlpha," "KrogAirBravo," and "KrogAirExpress."  Each has their own distinctive styles and gameplay.

 Each battlemap in this triloy have moderate variable winds, and some 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.

 C_A_P has set a standard showing that if you create quality tile sets, you can have a quality battle map with them.  He, along with Datanut (and a few others), have created outstanding tiles for use by the TA Community for creating quality pieces if the time and patience is used to do so.  I'm grateful to C_A_P, Datanut, and the others for giving us map creators the tools to use, so you in the TA Community can enjoy what we present.

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

 Each battlemap in this KrogAir Trilogy have their own start positions.  All three have three levels of playing settings: Network/Hard, Medium, and Easy with their own AI's in Skirmish mode.  These are excellent battlemaps for Multiplayer use by groups and clans.

 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 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.   Enjoy the diversity, and be motivated or challenged to create your own quality battlemaps.
