A Bow Of Hope — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
A Bow Of Hope is a large 108 by 108 map with underground levels, set loosely around Ancient Greece. The author admits it is not strictly accurate geographically or historically, but it lets five mythical heroes pursue their own quests, and many of the monsters are drawn from the myths that inspired the series' creatures. Five players can all be human, with no teams. Four colors start with random factions, while Green plays Tower. Victory comes from acquiring a specific artifact, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about 35 percent of the terrain and water about 28 percent, with subterranean ground and grass also common. Expect 14 towns, 105 mines, the Grail, and a scattering of named artifacts and wandering Minotaurs.
