Anti-Hero — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Anti-Hero is a medium 72 by 72 map with an underground level, set for Impossible difficulty in Armageddon's Blade. Six players share the field, but only one can be human. The other five colors are computer-controlled, and the players form two teams. The factions are Conflux, Castle, Inferno, Rampart, Necropolis and Fortress. The author's description frames the scenario as an anti-hero who wants to reduce all of humanity to skeletons. Victory comes from accumulating creatures, and the player loses if a specific hero is lost. Grass, swamp, rock and sand cover most of the terrain, with little water. Notable features include the Grail, 151 goblin stacks, 21 towns, and placed artifacts such as the Pendant of Free Will and the Orb of Inhibition.

Author's description

Once in a thousand years a real hero, a saviour is born. Each year, thousands of would-be heroes are unleashed. You, the Anti-Hero, belong to the latter category. I created you to wipe out all differences between mankind, in fact to wipe out mankind. Make them equal, turn them all into skeletons.
