Rivers maps for Beyond All Reason
Rivers cut across the land. Crossings are the chokes; the water itself is a lane.
Rivers runs water across a land map, usually more than one river, with fords and dry crossings in a few places. Armies queue at the crossings; hovers and amphibious units do not.
A river map is a land map with a few extra rules about where you can drive.
Made for: 8×8 to 32×32, up to 16 players. Every map is mirrored, so both sides get the same ground and the same metal.
!genmap 4v4 RIVERS in a room.What to build on a rivers map
Ground
Crossings are the chokes. Watch for the shallow fords the minimap does not show.
Air and sea
Hovers shine, ships rarely fit, air ignores the rivers altogether.
Economy
Metal on both banks; the far bank is the one you fight for.

Offline, against the AI

In a room
Type !genmap 4v4 RIVERS (or 1v1, 2v2, 3v3) in the room chat. Everyone in the room gets the same map by name, nobody sends a file.
