Map of emp_coast

Overview of beach area

Description

Map and terrain textures made by Tysn

This map features classic empires gameplay set in a coastal area. There are 2 paths out of each base, one of which branches early to create 3. The middle there is a capturable bunker, which is designed to be very defendable and provide overwatch on the two resource points to the north and south of it.

Contains 10 resource nodes and one captureable flag.

Change Log

• Added a cabin to the western canyon area

• More trees/rocks/shrubs overall to increase the amount of cover on the map
