Lands of Illusion — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Lands of Illusion is an extra large, underground-enabled map for six players, all of whom can be human, with no teams and random factions for every side. Its premise is a shipwreck: after a powerful Elementalist casts a spell that scuttles your boat, your army washes up on a strange island and must sail uncharted waters to get home. Nearly half the map is water, with rock covering much of the rest. The map is rated Hard. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses when all towns and heroes are gone. The map holds six towns, a Grail, and eleven Sea Serpent stacks among its wandering monsters, along with eleven creature banks, 43 mines, and 26 monoliths and portals. Eleven unique artifacts are placed on the map, including the Necklace of Ocean Guidance.

Author's description

When a powerful Elementalist casted the "Scuttle Boat" spell upon you and your troops, you ended up shipwrecked and washed up on a strange island. Now you must navigate the uncharted waters of this world en route to returning to your native land.
