Artifact Island (Allied) — RoE

Artifact Island is a medium 72 by 72 map with an underground level, built for six players with five able to be human, and it plays as a four-team game with one computer-only purple side running a Dungeon faction. The other five colors start with random factions. Victory comes from eliminating every enemy, and a player loses once all towns and heroes are gone. Water covers about a third of the surface, with grass, subterranean ground and sand making up the rest. Nine towns, forty mines and 181 random monster stacks fill the land, alongside wandering Mighty Gorgon, Thunderbird, Red Dragon and Naga Queen stacks. Ninety artifacts are scattered across the map, and the Grail is among them. Dwellings hold Vampires, Troglodytes, Beholders, Medusas and Serpent Flies, and ten timed events add further change.
