Five Corners — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Five Corners is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles, rated hard, for eight players grouped into four teams, with all eight seats open to human players. Each player begins with a different town, covering Rampart, Castle, Stronghold, Fortress, Necropolis, Inferno, Tower and Dungeon. The land is mostly rock, with sand, lava and grass making up much of the rest, and only a sliver of water. Victory comes from obtaining one specific artifact, while a player is eliminated once they lose every town and hero. The map holds the Grail, six placed artifacts such as the Sword of Hellfire and Angel Wings, wandering Zombie, Lich and Infernal Troglodyte stacks, and dozens of mines and creature dwellings.
