1. Instructions on how to play (If you want a summary,
skip down to the bottom):

You start with 3 basic forces.
-Hero
-Troops
-Reinforcement Point

All of these are essential to your survival. If your hero
dies, then all your units are automatically destroyed.

Your reinforcement point is like a barracks, with a few
differences. The first being, you can buy items here. A
potion of healing and an ankh of reincarnation. The
handy thing about reinforcement points is that you can
capture them if you damage them below 250 health. Dont
forget you can train supply wagons from your reinforcement
point, which give a large aura of regeneration to friendly
units in the area. Their rate of health regeneration is
increased by 300%.

Your troops are the main attacking force. This map is not
a hero wars, so your hero is limited in his ability. One
tactic is to just keep your hero out of battle altogether
so there is no danger of him getting killed. Of course,
if you do this, your troops do not get benefits from your
hero.

If you are ever in an emergency, type -reinforce to get 10
troops appear around your hero. You can only do this once,
so use it wisely.

Some people have complained due to all heroes having same
stats and abilities, however I have implemented this because
I wanted the skill of this map to come down to how you use
your troops.

2. Income

Income is received per minute based on the number of supply
bases your team owns. There are 5 per team, and no more can
be built. Every minute, each player on that team receives this
formula of gold:

5 x (Number of bases on that team) = Gold received every minute.

So obviously aiming for supply bases is an effective tactic.
Players will also receive 1 gold per troop they kill, and 50
gold per officer they kill.

3. The Fire and Naval Attack

I. Fire Attack - the fire attack can be performed by Team 1, as
was performed by Wu in real life. A list of effects:

-Disables Shu reinforcements for a while.
-Wu get 50 bonus troops.
-The supply base in the Shu camp is burnt down.

II. The Naval Attack - this is performed by Shu and will only
be available if Liu Bei retreats. Liu bei will only retreat
from the camp if either the fire attack is performed or if
Liu Bei himself is attacked.
The Naval attack causes a surprise Shu attack to commence in 
Wu's main base, and also creates a passage for Shu troops to
travel from the Castle shore straight to the Wu main base.
One strategy is for Shu players to have troops ready by the
castle, and when the naval attack is ready, they send all
their troops in at once to appear at Wu's base to blitz them
and kill Sun Quan before Wu can react.
The naval attack allows a constant flow of Shu footmen to
attack Wu's main base. To stop this flow, the reinforcement
point at the castle shore must be captured.

I hope you enjoy the map as much as I enjoyed making it.
