Search For The Grail — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Search For The Grail is a medium 72x72 map with an underground level, rated hard, for four players, of whom only one can be human. The author's description says the Grail is hidden somewhere in the area and that the player must find and retrieve it while rival forces search for it too. The map is built for the Restoration of Erathia version, with Rock covering about 42 percent of the terrain, water 24 percent, grass 17 percent and swamp 9 percent. Three computer-only colors, Red, Purple and Teal, face the human player, with no teams. Red, Blue and Purple have random factions, while Teal plays as a Fortress. Victory comes from building a Grail structure, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Notable features include four towns, 22 random monster stacks, 8 random artifacts, 28 mines, four creature banks and two monoliths or portals.
