Old Legends — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Old Legends is an extra-large underground-enabled map for Restoration of Erathia, measuring 144 by 144 tiles and rated Hard. It supports eight players, with one human slot and seven computer-controlled colors, arranged into six teams. The factions in play are Tower, Castle (twice), Rampart, Stronghold with Fortress, Necropolis, Dungeon and Inferno. Terrain is mostly rock, lava, water and snow, with water covering about sixteen percent of the surface. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses once every town and hero is gone. Notable features include twenty-two towns, a Grail, and a set of placed artifacts such as the Crown of the Supreme Magi and the Orb of Tempestuous Fire. Wandering wraiths, elementals and wood elves roam the map, and timed events are scheduled throughout play.
