BetaWorld — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

BetaWorld is a large 108 by 108 map for eight players, set on both the surface and an underground level, and it is rated for expert play. Every player has a different faction, from Necropolis and Inferno to Stronghold, Fortress, Tower, Castle, Rampart and Dungeon, and all eight seats can be human. There are no fixed teams, so each side plays for itself. Victory requires defeating every enemy, while a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. Rock covers most of the terrain, with water, grass and subterranean ground making up the rest. The map holds nine towns and eleven heroes, along with many wandering monsters, including fire elementals and black dragons, plus a range of placed artifacts and mines. The author's notes describe a neighboring king seeking a unified leader.

Author's description

Eight factions all agree that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, even in places where there is no grass. A distant king in a neighboring province is willing to open up a trade route as soon as a leader rises to tame the land and offer a safe and united front to negotiate.
