Quartet — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Quartet is a small underground map for four players, each playing a different side in a long-running dispute over a patch of land next to their own territories, where a legend says the Grail is buried. Every player may be human, there are no teams, and all four start with the same seven factions available. Victory comes from building a Grail structure, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone. The terrain is mostly rough and rock, with the rest subterranean, and there is no water. Wandering monsters include a Thunderbird, an Angel, a Gorgon and a Troll, and the dwellings hold Skeletons and Vampires. The map also holds 23 random artifacts, 29 mines, 9 creature banks and 34 monoliths and portals.

Author's description

Четыре повелителя все время вели войны против друг друга. И все это из-за ничтожного клочка земли, примыкающего к их владениям, где, согласно легенде, закопан Грааль. Кто его захватит тот и победит в этой затянувшейся войне.
