Epic Battle — RoE

Epic Battle is an extra large 144 by 144 map for eight players, all of whom can be human, with no teams and no computer-only colors. It includes an underground level and is rated hard. Each player begins with a different town type, covering Tower, Stronghold, Dungeon, Rampart, Inferno, Fortress, Necropolis, and Castle. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The landscape is dominated by rock, with water covering about a sixth of the surface and subterranean and grass tiles making up much of the remainder. The map holds fourteen towns, eight heroes, many mines and creature banks, and scattered random monster stacks, including wandering Infernal Troglodytes and Evil Eyes. Dwellings house Beholders, Red Dragons, and elemental creatures, and about ninety-four random artifacts are placed across the map.
