Catch a Faerie — AB

Catch a Faerie is a large Armageddon's Blade map measuring 108 by 108 tiles, played on the surface and set at Impossible difficulty. Its premise is a mad emperor's offer of a noble title, a duchy and great wealth to anyone who brings him faerie dragons for his zoo, which sets off a hunt across the land. Eight players can take part, with up to four controlled by humans, grouped into five teams. Four colors are computer-only, and Tan, Orange, Teal and Pink start as Necropolis, Inferno, Stronghold and Fortress, while the rest are random. Water covers about 44 percent of the map, with lava, dirt and swamp making up much of the remainder. Victory comes from accumulating eight creatures, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The Grail is placed on the map, along with 59 mines and several artifacts.
