Hydra (Ò) — HotA 1.8.0
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Hydra is a hard single-player map on a medium 72 by 72 underground level, played as Rampart with no teams and only one human player. The story has a lone hydra destroying your village and killing your family, and your task is to kill it while it is briefly stuck in one place. Rock covers about half the map, with grass and a smaller share of water. The map includes three towns, fifteen mines, three seer huts, two creature banks, the Grail, and several artifacts. Victory requires defeating one specific monster, and you lose if you have no towns and no heroes left.
