Dead Forest — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Dead Forest is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles, rated Expert, built for a single human player against one computer-controlled Dungeon opponent in Red, with Rampart in Blue, and no teams. It pits an elf heroine, Wren, against a spirit raiser who threatens the world, as she searches for the Old Peoples. Victory requires defeating one specific monster, and losing one particular hero ends the game. Terrain is mostly rock, grass and dirt, with some water. Notable features include two towns, eight seer huts, nine monoliths and portals, three mines, and wandering orc groups, along with the artifacts Dead Man's Boots and Equestrian's Gloves. The map is intended for Impossible difficulty with gold or resource bonus.
