Choices 2.3 — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Choices 2.3 is a medium underground map for four players, each playing one general in a desert maze, with each side using two factions. The author's framing is that Lady Celaine has hired the player to test which creatures make the strongest armies and which skills suit a leader best, so the player gathers skills and forces below ground before battle. The map covers 72 by 72 tiles, is almost entirely sand with a small share of water, and is set at Normal difficulty. Red fields Tower and Inferno, Blue Castle and Stronghold, Green Rampart, Fortress and Conflux, and Orange Necropolis and Dungeon. There are no teams, and victory comes from defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Notable features include a placed Endless Sack of Gold, several Black Dragon and Water Elemental stacks roaming the maze, and a number of Nomad dwellings.

Author's description

Lady Celaine has hired you to determine which creatures make the best army and which skills are best taught to the leaders. As one of four generals, your heroes will learn skills and assemble a force of your choosing below ground. You will then do battle within a vast desert maze.
