Gdansk XIXm — HotA 1.7.1+

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Gdansk XIXm is a giant, underground Hard-difficulty map for Horn of the Abyss, set a century after an earlier Gdansk story. As the author tells it, a comfortable mayor has grown lazy, and old friends arrive to shake him up, so the city must be saved through a total-war approach where attacking is the best defense. Six players share the map: one human seat and five computer-only colors, split into two teams. The Tower, Stronghold, and Castle factions are in play. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and losing a specific town ends the game. The map holds 36 towns, 57 mines, 32 seer huts, and the Grail, along with placed artifacts such as the Hellstorm Helmet. Rock covers about half the terrain and water about 12 percent.
