Irrational Hostility — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Irrational Hostility is a small 36 by 36 map for Armageddon's Blade, with an underground level alongside the surface. Four players can take part, all of them human, with no teams and no computer-only colours, and each side starts with a random faction. Victory requires defeating every enemy, and a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. The terrain is mostly subterranean and snowy, with dirt and rock making up the rest. The map holds five towns, 45 wandering monster stacks, 29 mines, two creature banks, 11 randomly placed artifacts, and dwellings for Unicorns. The author's note frames the setting as a long peace that has left the kingdom's armies weak and in need of a fight.

Author's description

Over the years there has been peace. The lack of war has weakened your armies and brought the morale of your kingdom down. It is time to liven things up....well, get to work.
