Death of a Hero — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Death of a Hero is a medium 72x72 underground-level map for four players, with two human slots and two computer-only colors, Red and Purple, forming two teams. Red plays Inferno and Purple plays Necropolis, while Green and Teal are random. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The author describes a small island in the Grais Sea where a fallen villain may be gathering an army, and the map is rated Hard. Rock, grass, subterranean, and water tiles make up most of the terrain. Notable features include six towns, a Grail, a Red Dragon and Water Elemental dwellings, and several Legion artifacts placed around the map.
