Minimap of Central Asia
“ | Central Asia is an arid, mineral rich region. Players will find defending their town relatively easy, but establishing control of the resource rish regions of the map will be important. Teams are separated by two shallow rivers that flow from a grassy plateau to the Aral Sea. In the plateau and along the river banks, players can find Gold Mines and lush vegetation. In the northwest, players will find roaming animals to hunt and Salt Mines. | ” |
