Magic Islands — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Magic Islands is an Extra Large 144x144 map for Armageddon's Blade with an underground level. Six players are set up, five of whom can be human, with the sixth color reserved for the computer and fixed to a Dungeon town. The other five colors start with random factions, and there are no teams. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The landscape is mostly rock and water, with about 35 percent water and a sizable subterranean section. The author's description tells of five nations on islands who once were friendly, then turned against each other over the treasure guarded by a devil beneath the earth. Notable features include Armageddon's Blade, the Golden Bow, the Vial of Dragon Blood, and the Grail, along with 16 towns, 8 heroes, and many mines and creature banks.
