New Ensemble Studios Random Map "Shipwreck" for Age of Empires II: The Conquerors | |

Think of Shipwreck as a reversed Migration: all players start in the middle of the map, where resources could quickly run out. Across a shallow lake is an outer ring ripe with resources to plunder. The decision is how soon to abandon the shipwreck island and move to the outer island--a lack of wolves and jaguars makes this decision a little trickier than in most maps. Establishing a foothold on the outside means you can grab all of the turkeys and look for the best locations for gold and stone. However, not only must you coordinate this exodus with your teammates, but you risk losing your initial Town Center and any unclaimed resources in the middle. Typically, one player or team heads for the outside quickly while another grabs all of the resources on the inner island. Because there are so many shallows across the lake, defenses are deceiving. Those in the middle or the outside can be attacked from any direction. | ||
