If you create a room in the multiplayer area, you can populate the room with AI instead of players and play a custom battle.

Are all of your maps multiplayer only? Or can they also be played in custom battle?

i've downloaded this map as well as others and it does not show at any way in shogun 2
i've tried custom and on-line battles by checking and unchecking the key building and it doesnt appear ANYONE of the custom maps i've got
when i suscribe to the maps they didnt download anything so i dont know what to do

I love this map!!!

You should do a map like Nagashino

THIS MAP IS FREAKING AWSOME

(1) Once you setup a barrier that you want troops to use for cover (tree logs, bamboo fences, barrels, wagons,...) you need to put zone(s) (white wireframe closed area) on the side(s) that you want troops be be able to line up and get cover in. Once you have a zone, you need to put inside the zone(s) EF Lines (yellow color). There are several types of EF Lines. Low wall = units crouching. High wall = units standing. Unlike Zones, the EF line does not need to close (ie: you don't need to connect the end back to the beginning point). Note that at the mid section of the EF line is a little cross section pointing in the direction that troops will be facing.

(2) The EF line is what your troops will line up on - I suggest putting 2 or 3 EF lines pointing in the same direction behind one another within the zone (to deal with larger unit sizes - otherwise the over flow of troops will just stand in a square group behind the covered troops - which looks bad and invites canon fire). Make sure that your first EF line is not too close to the edge of the Zone (or else the zone will not read the line correctly and will thus not work as intended). Now, play testing versus the AI, i noticed that cav could charge through certain barriers (perhaps because my zones were close enough that the barrier became invisible to the AI. My solution with that has been to put a "No-Go Zone" (red wirefram box) surrounding the barrier itself (just in front of the zones).

how did you make it so that you could take cover behind wood and rocks?

nice

thanks

Hi Volvomstone - this map has "key buildins" - the buildings filter is the same as rain/fog/snow, but it only appears in the multiplayer battle list area of the game, not the Custom Battle area. You need to host a game and then configure the battle. You do not have to play with other live players - just set a password to keep other players from joining when you host the battle in the battle list. Also, you can play "Classic" game if you do not have an advanced multiplayer avatar.

can someone help me i subscribed to this map but its not showing up?

BIDON

*oops i meant the night/rain/fog filters

I have never heard of or seen this filter, i have the rain/snow/fog filters for custom game maps but that is all...

Not at all Saxton - you have a point - melee builds are a little hard on the map at the moment. I am thinking of making some of the forested areas in mid field a little denser, and maybe giving some of the flat areas a few small hills or gulleys. As for making the map appear - it has key buildings on, so remember to go to the multiplayer battle list and check the key buildings filter.

well in that case, excuse my ignorance Mr Bengal ;)
However, the map doesnt seem to appear on my map list, i have subscribed, and other downloaded maps have appeared but not this one. Am i missing something? (P.S I also have fall of the samurai)

Nice maps mate :P

I tried to have balance here, adding a lot of shrub for skirmish units, and a dozen denfensive positions for ranged units to cover from in mid field (bamboo walls, log barriers, shield curtains, rocky outcrops). The size of the map is quite big - you will not be able to hit the enemy camp with your artillery, from your starting position (even in first person mode). Yes, the camps offer defenses, but if your opponent takes the field and all the buildings, they may well win. So, one should be careful if they are tempted to camp.

excellent map, would say based on the pictures it is mainly for artilllery/cav
