Mushrooms — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Mushrooms is a large underground map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Restoration of Erathia, measuring 108 by 108 tiles, with a Normal difficulty setting. It is built for five computer-controlled players, with room for only one human player, and there are no teams. The factions in play are Inferno, Necropolis, Dungeon, Rampart and Stronghold, one per player. The goal is to defeat a specific monster, and the player loses if a specific hero falls. Water covers about 45 percent of the surface, with rock and dirt making up most of the rest. The map holds five towns, nine heroes, and two creature banks, along with ten mines and ten monoliths or portals. Scattered across it are a Black Dragon and a Grail, plus a set of placed artifacts, including the Golden Bow and the Shield of the Damned.

Author's description

The President has heard about some particularly effective mushrooms growing underground. They are called "Black Dragons". You have been sent to bring him back some samples. As you set off you wonder: "Why would mushrooms have a name like that?".
