Epsilon City (2-6)

Aro · Alcohol Fueled **Joined**: 10 Sep 2006

Welcome to Epsilon City, so named for being chronologically the fifth region with established
GloboTech government. The city is especially important for the corporation as its ports
provide them with a shipping monopoly in any nearby seas. The city harbor is famous as it
was succesfully defended from invading fleets in wars through history. Coastal artillery
emplacements remain intact to this day, some saying they might still be operational.

In recent months, Tiberium has made several outbreaks in and outside the city.
As most of their local forces were caught elsewhere quelling riots and securing
Tiberium-infested areas, GloboTech was forced to request GDI in securing the
Tiberium outbreak. They accepted, but with different intentions: Nod had also been interested
in the recent outbreak, and knowing the value of the city as well, they were prepared to fight
for ownership over the region. GDI took defeating the Nod threat as their primary objective,
forgetting the civilians and securing the infestation.

The current situation: The countryside is all but abandoned as farms are consumed by Tiberium.
GloboTech has ordered civilians to stay indoors during nighthours. All
entries to the city are carefully monitored. A total of 6 MCVs have been spotted moving towards
the region. Tensions are high.

I say there is severe lack of space at the 'crimson' starting location.

Not really, I removed a bunch of trees because of that reason. Plus you can easily get rid of the rest with Scatterpacks, Flame Tanks and other effective tree-killers. What you have left is a nice squarish area of grass and pavement, obstructed by only a handful of light posts and benches #Tongue

The trees don't concern the AI, I've seen it build pretty, big bases on that spot.

Btw, everyone note that the spotlight towers actually cast light to the sea, unlike what you see in the megamap. I forgot to update the mega after I had fixed them.

Good, and the minimap looks excellent.

Oh man look at that sexy red tiberium pit, with a sweet Globotech base on top.

Shame you can't allied with the AI in TS, as this is a nice teamplay map Smile

Lots of eye-candy. Love it.

Looks like a great map, but more suited towards online play because it isn't as suited for FFA.

Isn't this codeable, though it might be difficult?

I mean, Red Alert 2 Yurí's Revenge has Ares and the likes, which greatly enhance modding possibilities.

Thanks for the feedback. Smile

Allying with AI is already possible in vanilla YR. No, it's not possible in TS at the moment.

I actually meant RockPatch and now Ares allows more than 9 countries, allows reverse-engineering, killdriver warheads, vehicle alphalights, additional superweapons, and many things from Tiberian Sun removed in orginal RA2 and YR (waterstate function from Ares, for example and Rockpatch allowed EMP already).

There's hyperpatch, but it hasn't been released (to the public) yet.

Hopefully things like that will be possible in the relatively near future.

this one looks pretty freakin sweet. I'd be worried that bottom left would have less build space, but it's hard to tell from the minimap
