Poczatek Imperium — HotA 1.3.0+

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Poczatek Imperium is a large two-level map of 108 by 108 tiles, playable on the surface and underground, built for eight players who can all be human. The author's description frames it as a quiet region where eight rival states compete for conquest and one of them grows into a new empire. Each player starts with a random faction, there are no teams, and computer-only colors are not used. The map is rated Expert. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player is eliminated once they lose all towns and heroes. Subterranean, grass, water and dirt cover most of the terrain. Highlights include sixteen towns, eight seer huts, sixty-five mines, eighty creature banks, and seven monoliths and portals, along with several named artifacts such as the Shield of the Dwarven Lords and the Endless Sack of Gold.
