Running With the Devil — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Running With the Devil is a large 108 by 108 map with an underground level, set in the In the Wake of Gods version and rated Expert. Five colors take part, but only one can be human. Red and Pink play Inferno, Blue plays Castle, Purple plays Dungeon, and Teal plays Necropolis. No teams are set. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses if one specific hero falls. Water covers about 29 percent of the terrain and lava about 18 percent. The map contains 20 towns, the Grail, 59 mines, and 23 monoliths and portals, with wandering Medusa Queens and Royal Griffins among the roaming armies. Hero levels are capped at 11. The premise is comedic, as a player is thrown out after trying to streamline a routine.

Author's description

Wow! The big guy really blew a gasket! All you wanted to do was add some efficiencies to the system, standardize routines, and document procedures. But the next thing you knew, Michael and his cronies were swinging their swords and showing you the door! {(Ver. 1.1)}
