Canberra v1.2 (easy) — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Canberra v1.2 (easy) is a large, surface-only map of 108 by 108 tiles for Armageddon's Blade. Its premise is a satirical one: the player must win unanimous support from the whole population to reverse a 2000 Australian tax. Five colors take part, with up to two human players and three computer-only colors. There are no teams. Red and Purple play Dungeon, Green and Tan play Rampart, and Orange plays Castle. The land is mostly dirt and grass, with some rough ground, snow, and a small share of water. Victory comes from flagging all creature dwellings, and a player is defeated after losing all towns and heroes. Notable features include the Grail, many wandering dragon flies, and placed artifacts such as Angel Wings and the Endless Sack of Gold.

Author's description

On July 1st, 2000, the Australian Government introduced a Goods and Services Tax. This is one of the worst things that a democratic government can develop: high taxes, excess paperwork, and no privacy. To reverse the decision you must show you have the unanimous support of the entire population!
