Thirty-Eight Original Maps for Asian Dynasties with 1 Town Center, 1 Covered Wagon +5 TC Limit, 1 Mango Grove Rickshaw. A normal Build meant for NR30 TREATY. Changes, and 100 Starting Resources!
These maps I've added just 1 Covered Wagon and 1 Mango Grove Rickshaw. Booming is easier on these maps!
Map are same; only units and resources added. I have also chosen only the most playable maps.
These are for meant for 30 Minute Treaty. Rush could work, as well as FFA or 20 Minute Treaty.
Gates are enabled for the AI on all these maps.
I recommend using these maps in place of the original for all games against my AI.
------
April 12, 2022: Added one new map: Ceylon. Fixed Silk Road market to always spawn.
December 25: Added seven new maps: Amazonia, Andes Upper, Bayou, Caribbean, Great Lakes, New Unknown, Unknown.
These Maps are included not part of the map pool "Age Maps".
June 17: Fixed bug with AI not playing always on Himalayas and Himalayas - Upper; install these maps again if you have a previous downloaded version.
Age Honshu properly places Covered Wagon and Mango Grove Rickshaw always.
April 4: Age Honshu properly places Native Settlements while still placing other units.
I found out how to do this from int avoidAll2.
Added Pampas, Plymouth and Rockies
April 5: Age Rockies always places Covered Wagons

Games played on this mode are great for Treaty 20 if you have 50% handicap for human players and 15% for Computer Players on Hard (1.25 x 1.15 = 1.4375 bonus)! For Expert Comp Stomps I advise 10%-20% Handicap bonus for Computer Players and 50% for human players.
Handicap improved creation of building speed, trickle rates, how many resources you get from trees, mines, berries, hunts, fish, and how much faster you get them. It also improved technology research speed! So if you wanted to play a Treaty 30 but with less time to spend on the game, give yourself a bonus along with other human players, and have Treaty 20 instead to save time.
With Hard on 15% bonus, on Age Maps, the AI always gets to Age 5 by 21-22 minutes.
