Le Desert des Geoglyphes — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Le Desert des Geoglyphes is an extra large, 144 by 144 map for Armageddon's Blade with an underground level, rated normal difficulty. It hosts seven players, four of whom can be human, while Red, Tan and Green are computer-only; the teams are arranged into five groups. The factions include Necropolis, Dungeon, Conflux, Castle, Fortress and Stronghold. The author's description retells the Orpheus myth on the ancestral lands of the Nazca people, pitting Waris, Sicans and Nazca descendants against each other over a sacred desert of geoglyphs, with a Spanish colonist arriving unexpectedly. Terrain is mostly rough and rock, with dirt and about ten percent water. Among the many placed items are the Grail, ten named artifacts such as the Titan's Gladius, and wandering monsters, dwellings and 34 towns. Victory requires defeating a specific hero, and the game is lost if time runs out after 336 days.
