Above and Below — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Above and Below is a large Armageddon's Blade map on a 108 by 108 grid, with an underground level and a Hard difficulty setting. Four players, each playing a different faction (Conflux, Castle, Rampart and Tower), can all be human, and there are no teams. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone. Sand, snow, rough ground and lava each cover roughly a quarter of the land, with about 10 percent water. The world holds eight towns, 48 mines and 38 monoliths and portals, along with four seer huts and twelve creature banks. Wandering armies include Faerie Dragons, Magic Elementals and War Unicorns, and an Azure Dragon guards a dwelling. Several named artifacts are placed on the map, including Armageddon's Blade, and the Grail is present too.
