Just made some new maps but I cant get the troops start where I want them to start.

In my new castle map I start with the attackers in the castle!

Now I tried deployment flags, but with no success.

Please help.

Cheers,

Lafayette

anybody?

in other words, how do you set spawnpoints for all armies in a custom map? is it even possible? and how do you do that with castles? so that the defenders actually start in their castle?

You can't set the spawn points. There's a thread somewhere which explains where the deployment circles are.

If you created a castle then the first defender will beam up in it and the rest will appear as reinforcements. If they're all appearing in the usual circles then you haven't made a valid castle. The walls have to touch and there has to be at least one enclosed area with a gate model. Use the 'snap to corners' option to place walls, it's the only guarantee that it'll work.
