 The road to overcome all, is always the hardest to journey.

 MAP TOPOGRAPHY:
	This battlemap has plenty of wind, metal, and thermal vents for war.  Exellent for various multi-styled combos.  Used in both multiplayer/skirmish mode.  Has settings for Easy, Medium, Hard, and Network 1.  Each setting has their own start positions and AI's.

 COMBINATION TILESETS USED:
	Desert, New Desert, Earth Desert, Evergreen, Earth, and Greenworld.  All are found at TAMEC's site ( www.tamec.org ).

 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
 	I would recommend using WinZip to extract this "Warriors Road.zip" file (and remember where you extracted it to): saving the "warriors.jpg" for viewing, "warriors.txt" to read, and this unique battlemap "Warriors Road.ufo" to be placed directly in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory.

I have included two files that you can install to make this game more interesting to you.....and keep you on your toes.

The first is the very excellently drafted "AirLand_SH.txt" AI file created by noted Tileset creator and author Slowhandd.  It works very well with this map.  I recommend you creating a file called AI in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory, then installing the "AirLand_SH.txt" AI file into this newly created AI file.  You will see an enhanced warfare that is enjoyable and aggressive.  This AI is set to be used in the Hard and Network modes of this battlemap.

Further, if you want heavy combat conditions, add also the AIBoost.ufo into your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory, and be prepared to fight.  This will enhance the Easy and Medium settings of this battlemap, utilizing their own AI's and start positions. 

After unzipping and installing the above files, then reboot your system, and reload the game for gameplaying.

Another recommendation is your having TAMECHeavy in your C:\Cavedog\Totala directory.  You must have either The Core Contingency or Battle Tactics expansion packs installed in order to use this map.
