Ralkor, the Liberator — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Ralkor, the Liberator is a large 108 by 108 underground-enabled map for one human player against seven computer colors, arranged in four teams. The eight players are split across Castle, Dungeon, Necropolis, Fortress, Stronghold, and Inferno, with two Castle and two Necropolis starts. Terrain is mostly rock, grass, dirt, and rough ground, with a small share of water. The story centers on a hero sent to stop a tyrant, and the win condition is carrying a particular artifact to its destination, while losing means the loss of a specific hero. The map holds fifteen towns, twenty heroes, a Grail, and many monsters and dwellings, including Beholder and Evil Eye groups and dwellings offering Green Dragons and Iron Golems.
