Mountain Pass — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Mountain Pass is a small two-level map on a 36 by 36 grid, with an underground level included, rated Hard. Two players face each other, both playing the Castle town, and both slots are human, with no computer-only colors and no teams. The stated aim is to defeat all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. The setting is a border dispute between two small kingdoms, where cyclops have blocked the road and the sides must either go around the mountains or take the caverns. Terrain is mostly subterranean, grass, water, and rock, with water covering about 13 percent of the map. Notable features include four water elementals, two cyclops groups, a black dragon, and a Sea Captain's Hat placed on the map. Four towns and four heroes are placed, with 28 mines and 11 monoliths or portals to move between areas.
