Description

Current version is emp_coast_b5.

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.
