Pushkin vs. Dantes — HotA 1.8.0

Pushkin vs. Dantes is a two-player duel on a medium 72 by 72 map with an underground level. Both players are human-controlled, there are no teams, and Red and Blue each get a random faction. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. Rock covers about 39 percent of the map and water about 26 percent, with grass and subterranean ground making up most of the rest. Each side starts with a hero, and four towns are on the map. Scattered across the land are 19 mines, 8 seer huts, 5 creature banks, and 28 random artifacts, with wandering monsters such as an Azure Dragon, a Behemoth, and a Mighty Gorgon. The author's note evokes a misty night over hilly countryside, which sets a moody tone.
