Ancient Heroes — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Ancient Heroes is a medium 72x72 map for four players in Armageddon's Blade, played on both the surface and the underground, at Normal difficulty. Each of the four players controls one faction: Castle, Rampart, Fortress, or Tower. Every player can be human, and there are no teams. The story centers on dragons that once slew the land's great heroes, and each kingdom blames the others. Victory requires defeating a specific monster, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock and grass, with water covering about twelve percent. Wandering threats include a Ghost Dragon, a Rust Dragon, and a Water Elemental, and the map holds the Grail along with numerous artifacts, mines, and monoliths and portals.
