Heart Of Steel — HotA 1.8.0
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Heart Of Steel is a large underground map for Horn of the Abyss 1.8.0 and later, spanning 108 by 108 tiles and rated Impossible. It supports four players, with two human seats at most, and the two computer-only colors, Green and Orange, are paired against the others in two teams. The factions in play are Dungeon for Red and Blue, Castle for Green, and Inferno for Orange. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and the game is lost if time runs out after 112 days. Water covers about 44 percent of the map, with rock, subterranean ground and lava making up most of the rest. Notable features include two Minotaur and two Minotaur King stacks roaming the map, placed artifacts such as the Ring of Infinite Gems, the Sword of Hellfire and the Targ of the Rampaging Ogre, and 17 mines.
