Buried Treasure — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Buried Treasure is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles for four players, with no teams and every seat open to a human leader. Each player begins with a random faction, and the map is built largely from rock and dirt, with water covering about 17 percent of the surface and rough ground making up another tenth. Victory comes from acquiring a specific artifact, the Titan's Gladius, while a player is eliminated once they lose every town and hero. The map holds ten towns, along with three placed artifacts (Boots of Levitation, Spellbinder's Hat, and the Gladius itself), 32 random artifacts, 33 mines, and 12 creature banks. Wandering monsters include Naga Queens, Minotaurs, and Red Dragons, and two timed events add further pressure.

Author's description

The Titan's Gladius has finally been located after vanishing from this region for centuries. Unfortunately, you're not the only person with this information, and three other leaders have vowed to get there first!
