Battle for Power[FFA Hardcore] — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Battle for Power is an extra large 144 by 144 map with an underground level, set at the Impossible difficulty. Up to eight human players can take part, with no teams. Each player controls one of eight factions: Rampart, Castle, Tower, Inferno, Fortress, Stronghold, Dungeon, or Necropolis. Computer opponents start with fifty percent more army than on a standard map. Players can win by eliminating every rival or by capturing the phoenix castle at the centre, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Grass covers about a quarter of the land, water roughly 14 percent, and sand and swamp about 9 percent each. Expect 34 towns, wandering Azure Dragon and Phoenix stacks, 113 mines, 48 seer huts, and 42 monoliths and portals.
