Hostile Takeover — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Hostile Takeover is a large underground map of 108 by 108 tiles, set for Armageddon's Blade on Normal difficulty. Five colors take part, with Red controlled only by the computer, so up to four human players can join. There are no teams. Red plays as Dungeon, Blue as Tower, Green as Rampart, Orange as Fortress, and Purple as Stronghold. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and the game is lost if the 336-day time limit runs out. The terrain is mostly rock, with swamp, snow and grass making up the rest. Notable features include five towns, fourteen heroes, and a Grail on the map. Players will also find seven named artifacts, ten random artifacts, and wandering monsters such as Mummies and Storm Elementals, along with several creature dwellings, mines, and seer huts.
