Rumble in the Bogs — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Rumble in the Bogs is a medium underground map measuring 72 by 72 tiles, built for Restoration of Erathia and set at Normal difficulty. Five players take part, with one human seat and four computer-controlled colors, and there are no teams. Red plays Dungeon and Pink plays Inferno, while the other players receive random factions. The premise is that you must first remove a nearby rival, then cross a swamp to reach richer territory beyond. Rock covers about 44 percent of the map, with grass, swamp and water making up most of the rest. Nine towns, 28 mines and a Grail are placed across the terrain, along with several named artifacts and 26 random ones. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes.

Author's description
