Gold Pile — HotA 1.7.1+
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Gold Pile is a small 36 by 36 map for Horn of the Abyss 1.7.1 and later, built by Griffin Rider and rated easy. It has a single level and supports four players, with one human seat and three computer-controlled colors: Blue, Tan, and Orange. Blue plays Cove, Tan plays Fortress, Orange plays Dungeon, and Pink plays Rampart, and there are no teams. Most of the ground is swamp, with water covering about a third of the map. The win condition is to reach one million gold, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Four towns, nine heroes, two mines, four seer huts, and three creature banks are placed around the map, along with a Breastplate of Brimstone, a wandering Boar and Chaos Hydra, and dwellings holding Gorgons and Serpent Flies.
