Apocalypse — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Apocalypse is a small 36 by 36 map for Armageddon's Blade, played on a surface and underground level and set up for eight players, all of whom may be human. There are no teams, so every player fights alone, and each colour starts with a different town: Castle, Stronghold, Inferno, Fortress, Rampart, Dungeon, Tower and Necropolis. The map is set at Normal difficulty and is mostly grass with a large share of subterranean ground. Victory comes by accumulating creatures, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone. The map carries a number of wandering stacks, including Azure Dragon dwellings and a Crystal Dragon, along with mines, seer huts, monoliths and portals. The author's own summary asks players to bring their king three Azure dragons or to defeat their opponents.
