RacesWar2 — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

RacesWar2 is an Extra Large map measuring 144 by 144 for Armageddon's Blade, with an underground level and Normal difficulty. It supports eight players, all of whom can be human, with no teams. Each player starts with one of eight factions: Tower, Castle, Necropolis, Rampart, Dungeon, Inferno, Fortress, or Stronghold. The author describes it as playable with two to eight players or as a single-player game, and says each race has its own advantages and drawbacks within its territory. Grass, water, subterranean ground, and lava make up most of the terrain. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. The map includes 48 towns, the Grail, Armageddon's Blade, 141 mines, 48 seer huts, and 29 monoliths and portals.
