Map type and generation

Planning a match
Check shore access and fish before committing to docks; on mixed land-and-water layouts, keep enough land defense to protect the economy while the fleet contests fishing or crossings. Identify the few usable entrances and secure them deliberately. Walls and narrow routes can buy time for an economy, but they also make the contested opening or cut-through especially important. Compare your opening plan with the actual spawn and scout report before choosing a build order.
How to use this reference
A central rainforest is ringed by fish-rich shallows, with smaller ponds scattered across the map. Players begin with fewer Sheep than usual, while Boars help offset the plentiful aquatic food. Scout the shoreline and landing points early; a route that is safe for ships may still expose a transported army when it reaches land. Prioritize a safe Town Center site with nearby food and wood, then scout outward once Villager production is stable. The map’s resource layout affects which expansions are sustainable and where an opponent is likely to contest control. Pool scope: Standard.
