il - heart — RoE

Il - Heart is a medium 72x72 map for four players, all of whom can be human, with no teams and no underground level. Players start with random factions, and the set-up is built around direct combat between human opponents rather than computer play. The author's note points to a single prize: the castle on the Heart island, whose capture is described as a fast route to victory. Terrain is mostly grass, with lava, snow and water making up the rest, and the map is rated Impossible. Scattered across it are 26 mines, nine creature banks, 43 randomly placed artifacts and 239 random monster stacks, along with dwellings holding powerful creatures such as Angels, dragons and Behemoths. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player is eliminated after losing every town and hero.
