LIMES INFERIOR (HotA 2026 pl) — HotA 1.8.0
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
LIMES INFERIOR, a large 108 by 108 underground map by SPROCKET for Horn of the Abyss, is set at Impossible difficulty and supports eight players, with one human seat and seven computer-controlled colors. Players are grouped into six teams, and the factions include Stronghold, Fortress, Rampart, Dungeon, Inferno, Necropolis, and Tower. Lava covers about a fifth of the terrain, with dirt, swamp, rock, and some water. The map holds 44 towns, 168 mines, and the Grail, along with dwellings, guarded seer huts, and placed artifacts such as the Boots of Speed. To win, a player must defeat all enemies within a year, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The author notes that the one-year limit does not apply at the 80 percent setting.
