Five Brothers — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Five Brothers is an extra large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles, set in the Restoration of Erathia setting. Its author's description says that after the death of a king, his realm was split evenly among five brothers, and that rivalry over the whole kingdom led to war, with the player taking on one brother to defeat the others. The map supports five players, all of them human, with no teams and no computer-only colors. Each player starts with a different town type: Castle, Stronghold, Tower, Fortress and Rampart. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about half the map, with water, rough ground and snow making up the rest. Fourteen towns, forty-one mines and eight creature banks are scattered across it, alongside wandering stacks of Archangels, Champions and Crusaders, plus dwellings and many artifacts.
