Rumble in the Bogs2 — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Rumble in the Bogs2 is a medium-sized underground map measuring 72 by 72 tiles, built for the Restoration of Erathia version and set at Normal difficulty. It supports five players, with up to two human participants and three computer-controlled colors, and it has no teams. The Necropolis-led Orange player sits as a fixed opponent, while the remaining colors begin with random factions. Victory comes from defeating every enemy, and a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. The terrain is mostly rock, with grass, swamp, and water making up the rest. The author describes a neighbor who must be removed before the player crosses a swamp toward the riches beyond. Nine towns, several wandering monsters such as Black Dragons and Medusa Queens, dwelling creatures including Gnolls and Lizardmen, and 26 randomly placed artifacts fill the map, along with 18 mines and four monoliths or portals.
