Hail to the King — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Hail to the King is a large Armageddon's Blade map measuring 108 by 108, played on an underground level at expert difficulty. According to the author's description, the hero is betrayed, thrown into the dungeons, and must uncover what happened in order to win back a lost throne. Four colors take part, but only one can be human, while Orange, Purple, and Teal are controlled by the computer, and no teams are set. Red fields Castle, Orange mixes Castle, Dungeon, and Stronghold, Purple uses Necropolis, and Teal combines Necropolis with Fortress. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and losing a particular hero ends the game. Rock covers about 40 percent of the land and water about 8 percent. Notable finds include an Angel dwelling, several placed artifacts such as the Orb of the Firmament, nine monoliths and portals, and sixteen timed events.
