Might & Magic IX — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Might & Magic IX is a large underground map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Armageddon's Blade, measuring 108 by 108 tiles and set on a single level below ground. It supports eight players, with up to three controlled by humans, and the other five colors are computer-only. There are no fixed teams. Factions include Castle, Tower, Rampart, Stronghold, and Necropolis, with Castle the most common choice. Rock covers nearly half the terrain, with water around a quarter and grass making up most of the rest. Nine towns, fifty-four mines, and a Grail are placed across the map, along with wandering monsters, dwellings, and several powerful artifacts. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. The difficulty is set to Normal.
