Iceland — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Iceland is a medium-sized, two-level map of 72 by 72 tiles with an underground level, set in a landscape where volcanic eruptions have raised a new mainland from the sea. Four players can take part, all of them human-controllable, with no teams and no computer-only colors, and each side starts with a random faction. Rock, snow, and water make up most of the surface, while subterranean terrain covers a smaller share. Players win by defeating every enemy, and they lose once they have no towns and no heroes left. The map is rated hard. Scattered across it are five towns, 31 mines, six creature banks, two seer huts, and ten monoliths and portals, along with 82 random monster stacks, a wandering Giant and Gold Golem, and placed artifacts including the Armor of Wonder and the Diplomat's Ring.

Author's description

The Volcanoes have erupted, and there is a mainland formed, so each island team decides to investigate it, but to their surprise it looks like it was inhabitated before. The sooner you get there the better because everyone is interested in it.
