A Stab in the Back — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
A Stab in the Back is a large map of 108 by 108 tiles with an underground level, and its terrain is mostly rock, with grass, snow and water making up the rest. Seven players take part, and only one of them can be human, with the other six colors run by the computer. There are no teams. The factions are Stronghold, Castle, Fortress, Rampart, Inferno, Tower and Dungeon. The premise is a betrayal that shatters a fragile truce between two rival orders. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map includes eleven towns, sixty mines, seventeen creature banks, eight monoliths and portals, and fifteen placed artifacts, among them the Golden Bow and the Cards of Prophecy.
