Aftermath is a random map in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition - Dawn of the Dukes.
Description[]
| โ | The remnants of a previous battle remain as players try to rebuild their empire and control the still-standing buildings that will aid the players economy. | โ |
Aftermath surrounds each player with heavily damaged and collapsed Stone Walls, reminiscent of Arena or Fortress. Medium-sized forests dot the map, which have a unique (purely cosmetic) burning tree type. Starting resources are standard, though the stone deposits generate outside the walls, making them harder to defend. Between each player is a gaia-controlled Trade Workshop, which can be captured by a player who moves a unit close to it. Once captured, a Trade Workshop generates a trickle of 20 food, 20 wood, and 20 gold per minute, but it must be defended, as any enemy unit that moves close to it will convert it for that player.
