Forrest Dragons II — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Forrest Dragons II is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles for four players, with no teams and no computer-only colors, so all four seats can be human. Red plays Dungeon, Orange plays Stronghold, Purple plays Fortress, and Teal plays Inferno. The map is set on the Restoration of Erathia version and is meant for normal difficulty. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and the game is lost if the timer runs out after 84 days. Rock covers about 41 percent of the terrain, with grass, water, and swamp making up most of the rest. The landscape holds nine towns and wandering monsters, most often Green Dragons, along with placed artifacts such as the Titan's Cuirass and the Pendant of Courage. Four mines are not included in that count; the map also contains 26 mines, four monoliths or portals, and twelve timed events.
