Finally finished this short little map. I came up with this idea a few weeks ago but didn’t really have time to do anything with it.
Basically, what sparked an idea for me was the fact that units in Age of Empires III slow down when attacked. I thought it’d be interesting to see that used as a tactic for some kind of game.
Here’s a quote from the description:
The basic goal is to reach the Llama at the end of the path before anyone else.
Killing nature units will make you faster and the XP you gain will help you level to better units. Every kill gains you 0.1 speed. At certain levels of XP, you will transform into a Halberdier, then Hackapell, then Nootka Warchief, and finally an all-powerful Learicorn.
Do whatever it takes to get to the Llama first. Skip all nature units if you wish. Poke each other to slow each other down. Find holes in the wall to sneak your way through. Anything works!
