Place in My Documents - My Games - Age of Empires III - RM3
Then run Age of Empires III: Asian Dynasties and select "Custom Maps" in Single Player or Online to play.
I recommend online play with these maps.
To get the new treasures to work:
Either install:
N3O Added Pack Mod:

Gates for AI Mod + Proto Mod:

These maps are also good on games without Treaty, starting in Colonial Age. It helps the AI gain a foothold and give a challenge, while not requiring the player to wait for a time interval to get into action! With Rush games, it is good to begin in Colonial Age rather than Discovery Age to ensure that all players have a chance to winning!
