Archery vs. Flight — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Archery vs. Flight is a large two-player underground map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 108 by 108 tiles, and it is played on Normal difficulty. The author frames it as a playful contest between the Archery Guild and the Flight Guild, asking which side would come out on top. Red plays the Dungeon faction and Blue plays the Tower, with no teams and two human players at most. Victory requires defeating every enemy, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock and grass, with water covering about nine percent of the map. Among its 22 towns and 29 mines, the map offers several artifacts, including the Golden Bow and a number of luck and swiftness items, along with four seer huts and seven creature banks.

Author's description

Everyone is familiar with the argument about whether a titan could defeat a black dragon in one-on-one combat. When the Archery Guild does battle with the Flight Guild, this and many other questions are answered. Who will be victorious? Rangestrikers or flyers?
