Age of Antheon - Galactic Empires
BETA

-This is an open beta of a map I'm making based off of the gaming concepts of another map known as RotD2 (By Spectre[YP]@USWest and 7ED@USWest) I made this from scratch because I don't know how to unlock maps, I also don't have any demo videos because I don't know how to use Camtasia correctly, it records a black screen w/ purple colors and semi-apparent white outlines. Go figure.

~Please submit ANY feedback for balancing suggestions etc. it is GREATLY appreciated, ideas for new gaming systems accepted as well!

STORYLINE/INTRODUCTION
The open expanse of space, known only to those who dare venture forth and explore it. Six factions, each different in culture and way of warfare each vye for power in this intense battle for control over the Milky Way. During this map expect fierce computer resistance, this is only to harden you for the trials ahead when human players embark on warfare to decimate your race.

Come on I need some feedback I base my maps on what people want out of it, a brainstorming of ideas and unit stat suggestions.

Sorry to sound like an idiot but this looks confusing. Downloading now. I'll see if I can play it. No promises though.

OoooH I've seen this before...

I was okay with it. I find the Space Design could be improved somehow.
For example, when a person goes into a planet... How would he control which way to enter? (or maybe you've got this covered without me remembering)

I also thought gameplay was a bit slow.. but this is akin to all diplomacies... D:

However, this is interesting. I'll play again to see if you've improved this :D
