These will give you 7 Map Sets, with different starts:
Bombard Maps, Dave's Maps, Holy Maps, Regicide Maps, Sword's Maps,
Market Maps, Town Center Maps
My goals with these creations:
The point being to create custom map mode starts that are seeded and work every time, with a special theme for the map sets, without changing the way the game is played. Also with kinder starts, the other player has a chance to win, so they can risk their starting units to either gain a decisive advantage, or to defend their base with the intention of going later on in the game.
These ideas are in infancy, and the example map modes published are a thing of things to come.
The idea also with adding just a few extra units, is to make something that everyone can enjoy.
