Dogs Of War — RoE

Dogs Of War is a large 108 by 108 map for Heroes of Might and Magic III, built for the Restoration of Erathia version and including an underground level. Eight players compete on it, all of them human-controllable, and they are split into four teams. The factions are Inferno, Castle, Stronghold, Necropolis, Fortress, Dungeon, Tower and Rampart, one per player. Water covers roughly 55 percent of the surface, with smaller patches of grass, sand and dirt. Victory requires defeating every enemy, and a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. The map holds 26 towns, 97 mines, 208 random monster stacks, 126 randomly placed artifacts, and eight wandering Archangel stacks. The author's note is a call to arms that sets the tone of a full-scale war.
