Middle-Earth v1.5 *Release* — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Middle-Earth v1.5 is a Heroes of Might and Magic III map set in Middle-Earth, where players fight as champions of the West. The map is extra large at 144 by 144 tiles, includes an underground level, and is rated Expert. Eight players can all be human, split into two teams, with one faction per colour: Tower, Castle, Stronghold, Rampart, Inferno, Necropolis, Conflux and Dungeon. Rock covers about a quarter of the land, water nearly a fifth, with grass and snow making up much of the rest. The map holds 45 towns, 131 mines, 38 monoliths and portals, and 34 creature banks, along with artifacts such as Armageddon's Blade and the Angelic Alliance. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone.
