Bay of Broken Ships — HotA 1.3.0+

The Bay of Broken Ships is a medium 72x72 surface map for Horn of the Abyss 1.3.0 and later, rated for expert play. Water covers about 40 percent of the map, with dirt, swamp and sand making up most of the remaining land. Two players take part, Orange playing the Cove and Purple playing the Necropolis, but only one seat is open to a human, while Purple is controlled by the computer. There are no teams. Victory comes from flagging every creature dwelling, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone. The map holds three towns, eight mines, two seer huts, nine creature banks and a range of placed artifacts, including the Talisman of Mana and several boots and rings. Wandering Mummies, Wraiths and Gremlins roam the bay.
