Narn Ascention — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Narn Ascention is a large underground map for four players, each playing on their own with no teams and no computer-only colors, so all four seats can be human. It is set on a 108 by 108 grid, with two levels, and is pitched at normal difficulty. Each player receives a random faction, and the victory goal is to acquire one specific artifact, while a side is eliminated once it loses all of its towns and heroes. Rock covers about a third of the terrain, with water, swamp and snow making up most of the rest. Players will find 26 towns, 16 starting heroes, and many guarded sites such as mines, seer huts and creature banks. Wraiths and wights roam in large numbers, and several dwellings offer strong troops like Genies and Wyverns. Eight artifacts are placed by hand, alongside 38 random ones.
