Allies — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Allies is an extra-large, two-level underground map for eight players arranged in four teams of two, all of whom can be human. Its author's description frames it as a world thrown into a widespread war after the natural balance is disrupted. Each player controls a different faction, with Castle, Tower, Fortress, Stronghold, Rampart, Dungeon, Necropolis and Inferno all represented. The map is about 23 percent water and largely rock, with grassland making up much of the rest. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing every town and hero. Roughly two dozen towns, eight heroes and a Grail are spread across the map, along with numerous wandering monster stacks, mines, and artifacts such as the Crown of Dragontooth and the Titan's Cuirass.

Author's description

The world is in chaos. Something has upset the balance of nature, and it will eventually pit the entire world into a savage war on many fronts. (jonahnynla@mindspring.com -- 2 vs 2 vs 2 vs 2 XL 2-level game)
