A Song of Ice and Cannon Fire — HotA 1.7.3
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
A Song of Ice and Cannon Fire is a medium 72 by 72 map for Horn of the Abyss 1.7.3 and later, with an underground level included. It is set for eight players, of which only one seat can be human, and the other seven are computer-controlled. Players form two teams. The factions in play include Castle, Rampart, Cove, Dungeon, Factory, Inferno, Fortress, and Conflux, spread unevenly across the seats. Water covers about sixteen percent of the land, with grass, rock, and sand making up most of the rest. The map holds eighteen towns and thirty heroes, along with three mines, nine seer huts, and twenty-five monoliths and portals. Two placed artifacts, the Mystic Orb of Mana and the Talisman of Mana, stand out among the objects. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and the game is lost if time runs out after 84 days. Difficulty is set to Impossible.
