I agree with you. Honestly, I was kind of just trying to get the maps made, but
yeah, the storyline might be a good idea. I will think about how that will go.
Thanks man, good stuff!
I don't want to mess with the current maps, but I will make some more, and if
you come up with map ideas, I can certainly try to put them in.

Yeah, I ment objects wich are able to block sight. In ambushes that could be
usefull. And for the bosses, maybe you included this already with the special
characters. I ment enemies wich are harder or have other skills than the
regular units. BTW: Is there a story wich connects the maps? And have the
characters a background story like in zombie house? That could be interesting
as well. I’m enjoying stories in games, because with them, you know why you are
doing what you do. And they can make the game more exciting and motivating.

Hmmm, I am not sure what good the trees would be.
You mean something to block sight, like for an ambush? I could add in an
ambush map where the player has a group of united allies against a passing
force, if that is where you were headed... Actually, that doesn't sound half
bad.
AS for hte bosses, I do have special characters in the axis and allies map,
butthat is sort of broken.
What did you have in mind? I'm all ears, grin.

Here are just a few suggestions of mine for the map pack:
1. Maybe you could put in some bosses, some smaller and some larger ones
between the regular Maps.
2. In some situations, it could be usefull if you could hide a unit or a
group of units. For this, objects like trees could be used.
What do you think?

Wow, war lords sounds amazing. Seems that a lot is going on in this map pack
and it sounds very interesting and complex. Great work, keep it up.

Is this map pack the one available for download from within the game?
if not, could you maybe repost the link to get it? I think it got buried for
me. snuffles I've been looking forward to playing the new maps. grins I'll
give you a slightly used clown nose and three popped balloons.
Okay.. two popped balloons, I was hoping you wouldn't notice the third was
mostly nonexistent.
