A Mapping Bonanza

by on 6th Dec 2012

Both charted and uncharted territories await you. In Elemental: Fallen Enchantress there is a world to discover, and never has this been more true than with the new Map Pack that Stardock Entertainment has now released.

Here's why you should take to the wilds and investigate:

This map pack adds new stamps to the game, adding more variety to the generated random maps. It also includes maps designed by Stardock. They introduce new challenges, dangerous threats and worlds to explore.

• The Wildlands - 10 Wildlands on one map. Can any empire rise in a world ruled by monsters?
• Anthys - Play across the entire world of Elemental on this map that is over twice the size as the largest maps in Fallen Enchantress.
• Clash - Play against a single opponent on a balanced map, or discover a ship and explore the nearby islands.
• Crucible - Four opponents with a common area between their starting positions, can you hold the center and take out your enemies?
• Dust Bowl - A dangerous map with few fertile positions. But the land isn't empty, hordes of monsters have claimed it.

The aforementioned pre-made maps permit a range of possibilities that the random map generator can't replicate:

For example, (...) the Anthys map (...) is over 5X bigger than the normal large map. A normal large map fills up with 8 players. With Anthsys, over a dozen players would have lots of room to expand.

We also have boats on these maps that players can take to sail out to areas and explore the seas for hidden islands and treasures. Pre-made maps also let us do crazy things like have a map where it's all Wild Lands all the time with everyone trying to survive and ultimately conquer them.

If you find these possibilities enchanting go grab the pack directly over at the game's site or through Steam.
