The Wall

nn_lb1

The Wall has been built to separate the desert from the local capital Ten-Rasha, run by Tau. Because of this wall, Ten-Rasha is a tourist attraction, famous for the views of wild orcs. However, the mob has made several attempts of attacking the walls (quite some tourists were beheaded during the attacks), so locals decided to decrease the Orc's numbers a bit.

The author says this map has been in his mind for several years now. Initially inspired by Outer Reaches (surprise, surprise), the map follows a slightly different layout and a different node setup as well, so the gameplay is quite different. You can launch attacks through the opponents back door, for example.

The map could be slightly imbalanced as far as ranged combat goes (arty and Tau updates), but on the other hand, turtling will not help you in this offensive layout.

Last but not least, the AI seems to have slight issues with this map as it doesn't rush a lot. It seems slower than usual.

misc

- your usual 2 player battleground
- the layout is roughly reminiscent of Outer Reaches. However, the map itself is really different in terms of gameplay and node setup.
- you may try to rush to get another early lp up
- The Ai is quite defensive here in lower difficulty levels... I wonder why?
