Lush Lava River Type: TA Map World: Lush/Lava Created by: AndrewAce3158 Requirements: CC, v3.1 patch Players: 2, 4 Map Size: 16 x 16 Memory: 16MB File Size: 1.34MB Start Positions: 10 --General A recent eruption has spewed a river of lava through this lushious forest. The lava has begun to cool and unstable rocky bridges now provide access to the other side. --Resources Wind is much stronger than solar. It has a minimum of 12 and a maximum useable output of 30. Because the wind speed has an actual maximum of 39, it will spend most of its time at the high end. There is a reasonable amount of metal near the start positions, but if you're looking for a larger metal economy you will have to spread out quite a lot over you're side. --Strategy Use construction vehicles to quickly cover your side. Cover the two lava bridges as soon as you can, but don't think that will stop your opponent. Hovercraft can still cross the red hot lava. When you send your land based armies to attack keep a careful eye on them and make sure they don't get too close to the lava. --Artificial Intelligence The AI will attack after around 9 minutes with small armies of rocket kbots. After a few minutes they'll be backed up by missile vehicles and missile hovercraft. They are the only offensive units the AI will use. The AI will cover its side fairly quickly. --Tools Used • Annihilator - main map construction • TAEB - minimap rendering • Notepad - AI creation, editing OTA settings • HPI View/Pack - inserting AI ReadMe last modified: 26/03/02 For a more up-to-date ReadMe visit: www.tauniverse.com/AndrewAce3158 or alternatively: www.geocities.com/andrewace3158
