A Fistful of Dinars — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

A Fistful of Dinars is an extra large, hard map for four players, each controlling one faction: Castle, Stronghold, Tower, and Necropolis, with no teams and no computer-only colors. It spans 144 by 144 tiles on the surface, is roughly 39 percent water, and is mostly grass with a small share of lava. The story follows Xena, who must locate the Grail ahead of the others. Winning requires finding the Grail and building a Grail structure in the town of Ambrosia, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds five towns, six placed heroes, one Angel wandering stack, and the Helm of Heavenly Enlightenment, along with the Grail itself, 28 mines, and three creature banks.
