Haboob is a random map in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition.
Description[]
โ | An incredibly open and spacious desert with little to no opportunity to secure your resources. Forests are sparse, exposed and challenging to defend. | โ |
—In-game description |
As the in-game description implies, Haboob is a very open map, as there are almost no trees at all outside of the few large forests. There is a large circular forest placed directly between each pair of adjacent players, and a thick layer of trees surrounding the outer map edge. Players start with the typical starting resource deposits, and have Rhinos or Elephants instead of Boar. In the center of the map is a pyramid, which may be partially collapsed. A Relic always generates near the pyramid, with the remaining Relics generating roughly evenly spaced in a circle slightly further away from the middle than the starting bases.
Trivia[]
- Haboob is a word derived from Arabic, and is used to describe a type of intense dust storm.
