Dyrektywa — HotA 1.6.0+

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Dyrektywa is an extra huge underground map by YeahBunny for Horn of the Abyss 1.6.0 and later, measuring 216 by 216 and playable on both the surface and the underground. It is rated Expert and holds eight players, with four colors reserved for computer control and up to four human players. There are no fixed teams. The factions are Castle, Rampart, Fortress, Tower, Inferno and Necropolis, with two players each on Castle and Rampart. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Roughly a third of the map is water, with rock, lava and highlands making up much of the rest. Notable features include 40 towns, 220 mines, a Grail, and several artifacts placed on the map, along with many wandering monsters and creature banks. The author's description is a political, satirical framing rather than a story.
