Snowlord — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Snowlord is an extra large underground map for five players, with only one human seat and four computer-controlled colors: Blue, Tan, Green and Orange, alongside the human-playable Red. It spans 144 by 144 tiles and is rated Hard. Red plays Castle, Blue Tower, Tan Inferno, Green Castle and Orange Necropolis, and no teams are set. Snow covers about a fifth of the ground, with water making up roughly a quarter. A win requires defeating one specific hero, while a loss comes when all towns and heroes are gone. The map holds 36 towns, 103 mines and 33 monoliths and portals, plus artifacts such as the Trident of Dominion and Armageddon's Blade. Wandering stacks include Angels, Champions and Steel Golems, and the author's brief text hints at a betrayal among lords in the year 1204.
