Quest for Magic 4 — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Quest for Magic 4 is a large underground map for Restoration of Erathia, set on a 108 by 108 board with 8 player colors, of which 7 can be human and Pink is computer-only. The author describes a final war over the lands of Mordor, where eight peoples have been raised for generations and wizards are trying to conquer everyone. Teams are arranged in four pairs, and each color plays a different faction: Inferno, Castle, Stronghold, Rampart, Dungeon, Necropolis, Fortress, and Tower. Rock covers about 40 percent of the map and water about 19 percent, with the rest split between grass and subterranean ground. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. The map holds nine towns and five starting heroes, plus wandering Arch Mages, Water Elementals, and Battle Dwarfs, along with many mines and creature banks.
