Rise of the Wizard King — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Rise of the Wizard King is an extra large map for Restoration of Erathia, measuring 144 by 144 tiles, with an underground level and a Hard rating. Eight players take part, though only two can be human, and the game is organized into five teams. The factions in play are Castle, Necropolis, Inferno, Rampart, Dungeon, Tower, Stronghold and Fortress. The story describes a peace among the kingdoms of Vallaria that fails after two years, when Thoran, the Wizard King, arrives. Rock covers about 45 percent of the land, with water near 20 percent, snow 10 percent and grass 8 percent. The map holds 48 towns, 46 heroes, 119 mines, 57 creature banks and the Grail, along with artifacts such as Titan's Gladius. Victory requires defeating one specific hero, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes.

Author's description

After long and terrible wars, the kingdoms of Vallaria finally succeeded in settling their differences. Intended to last for many years, a peace treaty was signed. It lasted only two. The reason? The arrival of Thoran, the Wizard King.
