—Map description |
Inner Circle is a special random map introduced in Age of Empires II HD: The African Kingdoms.
Overview[]
Inner Circle is a very special map. It puts all players in very close proximity to each other circled around a mass of mountains in the center of the map which is otherwise very open. All players are given a lot of animals to gather from at the game start, allowing for a quick development. These facts make Inner Circle a map with very high intensity from the game start.
Environment[]
The center of the map has a dirty terrain and features the mountains and all the players. The rest of the map is grassy with large jungle forests, small lakes, Gold and Stone Mines, and a few Crocodiles.
Starting resources[]
The following resources are found close to every player's starting Town Center and can freely be gathered at the game start. As trees as a source of wood are easily accessible on every map and hard to pinpoint to a number, they are not listed here.
- 6 Goats
- 5 Zebras
- 4 Gold Mines
- 3 Stone Mines
Relics[]
The number of Relics found on the map varies strongly. 4-8 Relics may be found on the map, all of which are rather far from the center.
