Beowulf — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Beowulf is a medium 72 by 72 underground map for four players, with no teams and no computer-only colors, so all four seats can be human. Red and Blue play Castle, Green plays Rampart, and Purple plays Dungeon. The scenario is set in a swampy, cursed land where a great treasure lies inside an ancient town, guarded by dragons, and the author describes it as a difficult challenge for only the strongest hero. Victory requires capturing one specific town, and a player is eliminated once they lose all their towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock, with grass and swamp making up the rest. Notable features include a Bone Dragon and a Royal Griffin among the wandering monsters, along with 38 randomly placed artifacts, 16 mines, and 4 creature banks.
