#2 - Blood! The Vampire's Tale — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

This Expert-level underground map for Restoration of Erathia uses an extra large 144 by 144 board. The story has the player waking after centuries of hunger and seeking a key item to regain vampiric strength. Three colors take part: Red plays Necropolis, Blue plays Castle, and Green plays Rampart. Only one seat can be human, and Blue and Green are computer controlled. The players form two teams. Victory requires transporting a specific artifact, and defeat comes from losing a particular town. Rock, water, and grass cover most of the terrain. The map holds 14 towns, 23 mines, 16 seer huts, and 13 monoliths and portals, and wandering centaurs and iron golems are common. Artifacts such as the Boots of Speed and the Cape of Velocity are placed around the map.
