Fertile Land — RoE

Fertile Land is a large underground map, 108 by 108 tiles, for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Restoration of Erathia. It is designed for one human player against three computer-controlled colors, Red (Tower), Blue (Castle), and Tan (Rampart), with a Dungeon-aligned Green also present. The stated goal is to capture all fifty mines, and the game is lost if the timer runs out after 336 days. The author describes a river the rivals have blocked, which must be crossed to reach the western lands. Rock covers about forty-one percent of the terrain, with sand, rough ground, and lava making up much of the rest. Nine towns, dwellings holding creatures such as Medusas and Minotaurs, and a Grail are placed on the map. Fifteen named artifacts, including the Endless Sack of Gold, and many wandering monster stacks, including Black Dragons and Diamond Golems, add to the challenge.
