Au Porte de la Mort — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Au Porte de la Mort is a large underground map, 108 by 108 tiles, built for five players with no teams and no computer-only colors, so all five seats can be human. The author's stated goal is to hunt down the Archangels hiding in the underground passages. Players receive random factions, and victory requires defeating one specific monster, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers almost half the surface, with water making up about a fifth and patches of grass and lava filling the rest. Wandering monsters range from War Unicorns to Gold Dragons and Power Liches, and the map holds 45 mines and 14 creature banks alongside several dwellings and a long list of artifacts.
