Going Underground — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Going Underground is a Hard, large 108x108 map for Armageddon's Blade that takes place on an underground level, with no author credited. The premise is a retreat: the player's side has been overpowered and must flee into a long-forgotten underground empire said to reward a sharp-minded hero with great treasures. Four players share the map, with one human seat and three computer-controlled colors, split into two teams. The factions are Castle, Tower, Stronghold and Necropolis. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about 42 percent of the terrain and water about 30 percent. Notable finds include the Grail, ten placed artifacts, and several wandering stacks such as Rust Dragons, Angels and Pit Lords.

Author's description

Your enemies have grown too strong and, shame or not, you have to flee. The long forgotten Underground Empire could be a good hiding place. A place also full of challenges where, as legend says, a hero with a sharp mind will be rewarded with unimaginable treasures.
