Black Forest Map
GBPirate has published a new CoH2 map inspired by Age of Empires and the real-life Black Forest.
This map is a tableau of sights of the Schwarzwald in southwest Germany. Designed for a competitive matchup, Black Forest should play fairly similar to most balanced maps in the 2v2 automatch pool. Find the map on the
Steam Workshop here and check out this
video preview here.
