Only the Strong Survive — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Only the Strong Survive is a large underground map of 108 by 108 tiles for Restoration of Erathia, rated expert. Its story, paraphrased, describes Underworld Necromancers overrunning the overworld, turning most of its weaker folk into skeletons and holding others captive, while a legendary sword may restore order. Five colors play, four of them open to humans and Green left to the computer, grouped into three teams. The factions are Tower, Inferno, Necropolis, Dungeon and Castle. Victory requires transporting a specific artifact, and the game is lost if 168 days pass. Expect 19 towns, 38 mines, and wandering Archangels, Chaos Hydras and a Black Dragon.

The Underworld Necromancers have struck with a vengeance never before seen. All of the weaker inhabitants of the overworld have been taken... Most killed and made into skeletons. Some kept prisoner for even more diabolical experiments. Legends tell of a magical sword that can restore order.
