Criss Cross 4 — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Criss Cross 4 is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles for four players, with two teams and up to four human players. Its premise, as the author frames it, is a struggle between angelic and demonic forces who try to keep their realms apart from open war. Players start with random factions, and the map is rated Expert. A player wins by defeating all enemies and loses by losing every town and hero. Subterranean ground, rock, dirt and water make up most of the terrain. The map holds nine towns, along with wandering Crusader, Arch Mage and Gold Golem stacks. Notable finds include a number of artifacts such as the Angel Wings and several Tomes of Magic, plus thirty mines, fifteen seer huts and fourteen creature banks.
