Quest for Magic — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Quest for Magic is a large underground map measuring 108 by 108, played at Normal difficulty for four players, all of whom can be human, with no teams and no computer-only colors. The factions are Stronghold for Red, Fortress for Blue, Castle for Green, and Inferno for Orange. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about half the map, with water around 18 percent and grass and dirt making up much of the rest. Ten towns are placed, and the map holds 37 mines, 17 creature banks, 11 monoliths and portals, and three seer huts. Highlights include a set of wandering monsters such as Dragon Flies, Halberdiers and Crusaders, and placed artifacts including the Shield of the Dwarven Lords and the Endless Sack of Gold.
