Shar's War — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Shar's War is a large underground map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 108 by 108 tiles across two levels. It is set on rocky and grassy ground, with a small share of water, and is rated for expert play. Five players take part, but only one seat is human; the other four colors Tan, Green, Orange and Teal are computer-controlled, and there are no teams. The factions in play are Rampart, Stronghold, Castle, Inferno, Conflux and Tower. The author's description frames the story as a hunted hero trying to topple a corrupt ruler, and the goal is to defeat a specific hero, while the player loses if a specific hero is lost. Along the way are wandering troll, swordsman and cavalier stacks, placed artifacts such as the Crown of the Supreme Magi, and ten monoliths and portals.
