A Touch of Beauty's Grace — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
A Touch of Beauty's Grace is an extra large 144 by 144 map with an underground level, built for the Restoration of Erathia version of Heroes of Might and Magic III. The author pitches it as a practice run before Heroes 4 and warns that it is meant for experts, advising players to keep the original settings. It is set on Impossible difficulty for eight players in total, with two human seats at most and six computer-only colors. Two teams compete, and the factions are Castle, Tower, Stronghold, Inferno, Fortress, Dungeon, and Necropolis, with Tower appearing twice. Victory and defeat both hinge on specific heroes rather than standard conditions. Terrain is roughly a third water, with rock, subterranean ground, and snow making up much of the rest. Notable features include two placed artifacts, the Lion's Shield of Courage and the Still Eye of the Dragon, and three wandering Archangel stacks.
