Birth of a god — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Birth of a God is a medium-sized underground-and-surface map of 72 by 72 tiles for Armageddon's Blade, rated hard, with eight players in total, of which only one can be human and seven are computer-controlled. The six teams pit the human-controlled color against a mix of castle, necropolis, inferno, tower, conflux, rampart and fortress forces, with the Teal player fielding several factions at once. The map is built around a single hero's journey to find and defeat a specific enemy god, and losing that hero ends any chance of victory. The player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Terrain is mostly grass, rock, snow and swamp, with about nine percent water. Highlights include twenty Ancient Behemoth stacks, sixteen Cyclops King stacks, a Grail, fifteen named artifacts, nine towns and twelve monoliths and portals.
