-3.9. Tropic
-
-* Region:
-
-* Characteristics:
-- Characterised by jungle with lots of forests and and usually open clearings/passage ways.
-- Has an abundance of animal life on it, including dangerous ones.
-- Abundantly endowed with wood, but except in one case, Paradise Lost, it is always a surprise as to how well endowed the tropic map will be with either stone or ore.
-- Except for rain forest types that are always wet or have rainfall at any season, is characterised weather-wise as having only 2 seasons in the year, "summer" as the dry one and "winter" as the rainy one, divided equally.

-Tropic Land types:
-3.9.1. Cameroon
-
-- Characterised by the deepest, densest, darkest 'rain forest' jungle terrain.
-- Foot units cannot move through forest on this map.
-- Raining miserably most of the time with few periods of bright sunshine, the ground is a saturated sponge that slows movement.
-- A dense jungle 'knock-off' of Black Forest in AoK otherwise having much the same characteristics.
-3.9.2. Paradise Lost
-
-- Represents the legendary Lost Mines of Solomon region of the Great Rift Valley of East Africa.
-- Characterised by occasional high mountains.
-- Includes volcanoes and cliff escarpments.
-- Includes waterfalls, rivers, lakes that are usually connected by the rivers.
-- Open areas of meadow prolifically populated by animals for food along with some that are dangerous.
-- Dense and highly floriferous forests.
-- Perpetual springtime or summer with frequent but not overwhelming rains during winter (that lasts half the year).
-- Well endowed with all resources wood, stone and ore.
-- This map is the highest resourced and most eye-candied map in the regular game.
-
-Tropic Water types:
-3.9.3. Congo River
-
-- Characterised by a large broad river running through the basically flatland map, with navigable tributaries running off it to either side.
-- Dense jungle terrains and clearings to either side of the rivers.
-- This map must be played as a watermap as there are no passages between clearings and settlement areas which are accessible only via waterways.
-- There are no shallows, rapids, or waterfalls on the broad Congo River or its relatively large tributaries to bar watercraft passage.
-- It can rain pretty frequently year-round on this map but not to the extent of that seen on Cameroon; it is always 'green'.
-- Crocodiles can occasionally be a hazard to hominid units on this map immediately adjacent to and along watercourse banks.
