Kingdom of Thousand Islands — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Kingdom of Thousand Islands is an Extra Large underground-enabled map for Armageddon's Blade, built for five players where Red and Blue are computer-only and up to three humans can join, split into four teams. The author describes a long war in which one kingdom, having grown too strong for its neighbours, is finally challenged by a single hero who breaks its long-held invincibility. The setting is a 144 by 144 field, roughly a third of it water and nearly half rock. Factions are Inferno for Red, Necropolis for Blue, Tower for Tan, Castle for Green and Rampart for Orange. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Thirteen towns, eight placed heroes, sixty-five mines and several artifacts, including the Boots of Speed and the Orb of Inhibition, are scattered across the islands, with wandering Dragons and Devils guarding the wider world.
