Pandora's Box — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Pandora's Box is a medium underground map for four players, each human-controllable, with no teams and no water. Set on a 72 by 72 tile battlefield, it asks players to search through many containers to find the one holding the Sword of Judgement, which is the victory goal. The factions are Castle for Red, Necropolis for Blue, and Dungeon for both Green and Orange, and the difficulty is rated Expert. Terrain is mostly rock and dirt, with some subterranean ground. The map holds six towns, a large set of random monster stacks, dragons roaming as wandering armies, and a scattering of mines, creature banks, and monoliths. Players lose by losing all their towns and heroes.
