Hourglass XL — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Hourglass XL is an extra large underground map for two players, with a 144 by 144 layout that is meant for one-on-one games. It is played on the Restoration of Erathia version and rated Impossible. Each player may be human, there are no computer-only colours, and no teams are set. Orange and Purple both receive random factions. A player wins by defeating all enemies and loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about 35 percent of the terrain, with subterranean ground, grass and water making up most of the rest. The map holds 10 towns, 284 random monster stacks, and 52 mines. Notable features include two Diamond Golem stacks and two Mighty Gorgon stacks wandering the map, plus placed artifacts such as the Orb of Inhibition and the Tome of Fire Magic.
