Chess Master — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Chess Master is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles for four players, with at most four human participants and two teams. Players receive random factions, and the goal is to defeat all enemies, while a player loses once all towns and heroes are gone. The map is built mostly from rock, snow, and lava, with dirt covering a smaller share and no water at all. The description calls it a straightforward elimination match and hints that hidden events are only visible in the editor. Notable features include four towns, one starting hero, and wandering Pikemen, Black Dragons, and Diamond Golems. Elemental dwellings, several named artifacts, mines, seer huts, creature banks, and monoliths and portals are also scattered across the terrain. Difficulty is rated Hard.
