Important: You must have patch 1.5 or later to use this mod. Download it at www.scourgeofwar.com/downloads.shtml

To install the mod, open RandomMaps5b.zip after downloading it, and drag the two folders from the zip into your Mods directory. (Click here for a screenshot of installing the mod.)

Then start the game, go to your Modifications menu, and enable RandomMaps5 and GCM_Terrain4. The maps will be available in your Sandbox menu and the terrain will be enhanced.

I'm assuming these are the maps that were in the latest GCM update?

Right.

There will be more of course that are included in the launcher, but I don't like to do too many updates in a row.

They don't use any packages at all, since there are no buildings or fences. So they should be usable with SOWGB or SOWCV standalone without anything else.

Thank you Garnier

The mini maps are exceptional and, to me, look to be a real step forward from your previous Random map MM's.

Just going off memory, the tones are reduced and more easy to the eye and, more importantly, the elevations/hills are much more pronounced.

Now I will know just where to site my Grand batteries. Also useful for scenario design.

G-Man - The screen-shots look great , you have made an excellent blending of the varies color's.

These should prove to be very good maps for the Napoleon Group, also!
