Hercules — HotA 1.5.0+
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Hercules is a large underground-enabled map for Horn of the Abyss 1.5.0 or later, rated Expert, that spans 108 by 108 tiles across two levels. Its author describes Hercules trying to return to Olympus, overcoming a series of obstacles set by Hades, and facing him in a final battle, all under a five-month time limit. The map holds eight players, with one human slot and seven computer-controlled colors, and no teams. Each color plays a different faction, from Inferno and Conflux to Necropolis and Fortress. Victory requires capturing a specific town, while the game is lost if the 140-day limit runs out. Rock covers nearly half the terrain, with dirt, highlands and water making up most of the rest. Players will find twelve towns, ten placed heroes, nine mines, and the Grail, along with a range of wandering monsters and several named artifacts.
