Land Before Time — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Land Before Time is an Extra Large underground map for Armageddon's Blade, set at Expert difficulty for four players, all of whom can be human, with no teams. Red plays Castle, Tan plays Tower, Purple plays Necropolis, and Teal plays Inferno. The description presents a lull after a great war, during which each lord withdraws to recover before a renewed fight for dominance. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about a third of the terrain, followed by lava, dirt, grass, and a little water. The map has thirteen towns and six pre-placed heroes, with wandering Titans, Black Dragons, and Phoenixes among its monsters. Placed artifacts include the Boots of Speed and Titan's Cuirass, and there are 103 mines.
