And Into Lore — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

And Into Lore is a small 36 by 36 map with an underground level, rated hard, for four players who can all be human, with no teams. Rampart, Conflux, Tower, and Stronghold each hold a seat. The story concerns a stolen artifact tied to a legendary lumberjack, and the goal is to find it and carry it to a destination. Players lose if the 28-day limit runs out. Dirt covers most of the land, with water making up about 30 percent and grass the rest. Notable features include 16 mines, five towns, five seer huts, and four monoliths and portals. Wandering monsters include a Diamond Golem and a Green Dragon, and Water Elementals guard their dwellings.

Author's description

It's a sad day for the American logging industry: sawmills have gone union, the shipper's guild has declared war over floating logs clogging the river, new age environmentalists are planting weeds, and worst of all, the axe of mighty Paul Bunyan has been stolen. Can you find it?
