Mission 3 — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Mission 3 is a Hard scenario for Armageddon's Blade on a medium 72 by 72 map with an underground level. Much of it is rocky ground split by water, and the story sends the hero after a brood of giant behemoths related to Razor Claw, which are raiding villages and defiling temples. Two players are set up, but only one can be human: the Tan Stronghold player faces a computer-controlled Tower force in Blue, and there are no teams. Victory requires defeating a specific monster, while losing a particular hero ends the game. The map includes five towns, three starting heroes, 21 mines, 10 creature banks, thirteen placed artifacts such as the Red Dragon Flame Tongue, and six monoliths and portals.
