Infantry only maps, are they possible to do?

As the title says, is there way to disable tanks and cap heavy infantry for Infantry only maps?
Is this possible to do in Map Editor to put it per map or do I have to mod the mod?

The simplest method would be to create maps where there are choke points that prevent vehicles of a certain size or larger to traverse through, but allow infantry to funnel through whatever gaps you give them.

You would have to warn players via the title that vehicles are not allowed.

That said, I'm not sure a lot of people will like the concept of that - vehicle play is quite important.

Not in the world builder, might be by modding buy the means you couldn't play with anyone else.

No vehicles, except manticores :)

I mainly play against AI and the end game tends to become miniature Kursk tank squad battles, which are boring to me.
I want to see more mass infantry battles, so that AI would also make use of the infantry too. I guess I have to take a look into modding tools and find a way to make this as a addon.

Could it be possible to make this as a Victory Condition: Annihilate - Infantry Only, Victory Point Control - Infantry Only etc.?

No matter where you are, be it in a mine, a space hulk's corridors, the warp, within a fortress, in a ship's deck, or in the webway, a manticore missile will always find its way to you.
