Megalopolis — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Megalopolis is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map for Armageddon's Blade with an underground level, rated Expert. It supports four players, with one human seat and three computer-controlled colors, arranged in two teams. The factions in play are Castle for Red and Tan, Tower for Blue, and Necropolis for Purple. Victory requires capturing one specific town, and a player is defeated after losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock and grass, with water and dirt covering the rest. Across the map sit twenty towns, nineteen heroes, and a large number of wandering monsters, including several Master Genie and Champion stacks. Notable placed artifacts include the Titan's Gladius and Titan's Cuirass, and the author sets the scene as a land broken by a long, unfinished war.
