Arena. R2TA. — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Arena is a small 36 by 36 map with an underground level, built for two human players with no teams and no computer-controlled colors. The author describes it as resembling the RTA arena from Heroes V. Both players start with random factions on Impossible difficulty. Victory requires flagging the single mine on the map, and a player loses if time runs out after seven days. The terrain is mostly grass and rock, with a smaller share of subterranean ground. Four towns and four heroes are placed. Phoenix stacks are the most common wandering monsters, at 26, alongside archangels and several dragon types. Notable features include Titan's Thunder, Angelic Alliance, 66 random artifacts, eight seer huts, and twelve monoliths and portals.
