I want to make a map, one intended for multiplayer, probably aow2 maybe aow1.
The things that occur to me as requiring consideration are;
-early invasion with lowlevel troops should be possible, but investing into higher level troops should also be possible
-there should be chokepoints, but there should also be open areas and alternate routes
-there should be some recruitment sites with unique troops, but not so much that they overwhelm the whole point of investing into cities and training t3s/t4s.
-There should be some sort of Escher-style moebius-strip teleport network somewhere. I don't know quite what I mean by this, but I'm sure it would be cool
-There should be valuable holdings in the middle of the map, but also some great cities to be captured recessed somewhere deep in the edges.
-What if one level had cities, another had limited/small cities and mines, another had recruitment sites and mana? and these three levels were largely self-contained with exits that are heavily guarded?
Anyway, I want to make a map but I don't quite have a concrete idea about it, anyone got suggestions?
