Cave of Gerfrex v1.4 — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Cave of Gerfrex v1.4 is a small underground story map for In the Wake of Gods, set on a 36 by 36 board with a single level below ground. It is built for four players, but only one can be human, and the other three are computer-controlled. Red plays a Dungeon, Blue and Tan field Strongholds, and Purple leads a Necropolis; Blue and Tan share a team, and the map has three teams in total. The premise is a race against a necromancer's undead army, with the game ending if the clock runs out, and winning requires defeating one specific hero. Terrain is mostly dirt, rock and subterranean ground, with a little water. Players will find wandering stacks of Grand Elves, Wood Elves, Medusas and Walking Dead, plus several artifacts placed around the map, seven monoliths and portals, and three seer huts.
