Battle for Power — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Battle for Power is a two-player Heroes of Might and Magic III map set on a medium 72 by 72 grid, with an underground level included. It is rated hard and supports two human players with no computer-only colors and no teams. Both sides start with random factions, and victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing every town and hero. Rock covers the largest share of the terrain, followed by grass, water and sand. The map holds five towns, two starting heroes, and a range of wandering monsters, including Arch Devils, Black Dragons and Efreet Sultans. Players will find eight tomes of magic-related and utility artifacts, along with mines, creature banks, monoliths and portals. The author describes it as a blend of two earlier maps, Battle for Honor and Desert War.
