Seven Keys to Necropolis — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Seven Keys to Necropolis is a large 108 by 108 underground map for Restoration of Erathia, set at Impossible difficulty. It supports eight players, with one human player and seven computer-controlled colors, split into two teams. The factions in play are Tower, Castle, Stronghold, Fortress, Necropolis, Rampart and Inferno, with the Purple side combining Castle and Dungeon. The goal is to capture a specific town, and the player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map is built mainly from rock, with water covering about 14 percent of its surface. Its 21 towns, dwelling creatures such as Wood Elves, Unicorns and Medusas, and placed artifacts including the Crown of the Supreme Magi and Sword of Hellfire give the guarded quest its substance. Wandering Titans, Pit Fiends and Ancient Behemoths guard the way.
