Beachhead — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Beachhead is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles, rated hard, for two players, each controlling one human side. Red plays as Dungeon and Blue as Tower, with no teams and no computer-only colors. Rock covers about half the surface, with grass, water, and sand making up the rest, and the author's note frames the scenario as a seaborne assault on a shoreline. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing every town and hero. Each side starts with two towns and two heroes. The map holds a dense scattering of wandering monsters, including many Master Gremlins and Infernal Troglodytes, along with dwellings for Genies, Nagas, Giants, Beholders, Medusas, Manticores, and Red Dragons. Eleven named artifacts are placed on the map, plus two random ones.
