With Act of Aggression on its final run, we have decided to bring some of our people back on Red Dragon to accede to one of the community’s main request:
NEW MAPS
They will come in two kinds: alternate versions of existing maps, with a different level design (orientation, zones, …) and brand new ones. It is the latter ones which are of interest here, proposals for the former ones will be discussed later.
Over time, many people have been requesting that we port their favorite maps from Escalation or AirLand to Red Dragon, and today we have decided to oblige them. Due to major changes in the map making process between the various Wargame installments, porting EE or ALB’s maps to RD isn’t an easy trick. Technically, it amounts to the same work for our level builders as doing a new one from scratch.
But since we are now committed to making new ones, we have decided that the opportunity to bring those classic maps to Red Dragon was too good to be missed. We have also decided to let YOU chose which ones.
YES, YOU CAN!
The link below will allow you to vote for your 5 favorite EE/ALB maps, among a pre-selection we have made of 15 of them. We can’t say right now how many of them will be made, but we will start with the most popular ones, going down the list as much as we can. Keep in mind that those maps you will elect will be remade with the same general and level design, but with Red Dragon‘s graphic assets: hence a German or Scandinavian pine trees forest will become an Asian palm trees one …
CLICK HERE TO VOTE (and remember: only once, but for 5 maps).
If you have a hard time remembering what such or such map looks like, I suggest you visit this site for EE‘s maps, and this one for ALB‘s. Our thanks for the creator of those pages … 🙂

July 14, 2015 at 11:13 amGlad to see more maps! Especially, classics from previous games. Personally, I like to have been able to vote for Bergen, I really enjoyed the fighting in the towns. More urban fighting would be excellent!

July 16, 2015 at 8:11 pmSounds awesome guys! AOA looking great, glad to see that RD is not being forgotten. Does this mean there are not going to be any “new” maps (not EE or ALB), just the ported ones? Or will there be a mix of ported and brand new? (plus the redesigns on existing RD maps)

July 17, 2015 at 4:41 amNew Faction Ideas: North and South Vietnam, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan.
New map Ideas: Any snow maps, or maps that are not in asia and contain european/middle-eastern style buildings/plants.
New troop ideas: Airplanes that para-drop infantry with parachutes. Carpet bombing airplanes like a B-52 that drops hundreds of bombs.
Navy Ideas: Add submarines, and battleships, which are huge and cost 1000 or more but wreck entire mountain sides. Aircraft Carries which spawn with loads of aircraft inside them.

July 20, 2015 at 10:52 pmPlease, pleeeease. Just open it up to steam workshop!
Letting the community build their own maps and making their own skins, etc. Would literally boost the number of active players by 1000% (yes I’m serious) and the number of new players would increase aswell. The game would be unstoppable with steam workshop and community made stuff.
Please I beg you, do it.
