Frigid Lake is a random map in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition.
Description[]
With the ice vanishing around the players, food is easily accessible and plentiful; however, their towns are left exposed and unprotected from enemy raids.
Each player's Town Center is surrounded by a small area of shallows containing two groups of tuna that can be harvested by Villagers for an early food boost. Buildings cannot be placed on these shallows, and if a player's Town Center is destroyed, it cannot be rebuilt in the same location. In the center of the map is a small lake filled with fish with a ring of shallows around the outer edge.
