2 sides — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

2 Sides is a large 108 by 108 Armageddon's Blade map with an underground level. The author suggests the Expert start condition and describes the map as balanced so that both sides have equal chances. It is built for two skilled human players and is expected to take more than one day to play. Three players take part: Red plays Necropolis, Blue plays Castle, and Pink plays Conflux, which is computer-controlled only. There are no teams. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock, with grass, dirt, and lava, and about five percent water. The map has seven towns, 42 mines, and the Grail, along with dwellings guarded by golems and dragons and artifacts such as the Crown of the Supreme Magi and the Helm of Chaos.

Author's description

The map should be very good balanced so both sides have the same chances. The map is designed for 2 skilled HUMAN player! Calculate more than one day for playing this map :-) I suggest "expert" as start condition. Most of the text is in german but not important. Arne.Mauri@t-online.de
