Firebirds — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Firebirds is a large Heroes of Might and Magic III map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 108 by 108 tiles and offering both surface and underground levels. It supports six players, two of whom can be human, with the other four controlled by the computer, and no teams are set. The factions are Castle, Rampart, Conflux, Fortress, Tower, and Dungeon, one per player. Rock covers nearly half the terrain, with grass, water, and swamp making up most of the rest. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds twelve towns and nine starting heroes, scattered wandering monsters, twelve dwellings with a mix of creatures, and a Grail. Badge of Courage and Cards of Prophecy are placed artifacts, and the map includes 32 mines, 13 creature banks, and 10 monoliths or portals.
