Rivers is a map in Age of Empires II.
Description
Players are isolated by narrow rivers; numerous shallows must be guarded at all cost. - Map description
Rivers is a semi-aquatic map, highly similar to Highland, and should be played accordingly. This map features a land with multiple rivers dividing the region, with all players being divided by rivers, whose lands are accessible by shallows.
While the shallows can be walled to deny access to land units, players may pragmatically choose to build Docks and embark armies with Transport Ships instead, thus potentially nulifying this tactic.
