Spheres of power — RoE

Spheres of Power is a small 36x36 map for five players on the surface level, with no teams and no computer-only colors, so all five seats can be human. The Restoration of Erathia version is used, and the difficulty is set to Normal. Red plays Fortress, Blue plays Tower, Tan plays Inferno, Orange plays Rampart, and Purple plays Necropolis. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Grass, lava, dirt, and snow cover most of the land, with about nine percent water. The author describes nine groups of Giants that discourage early fighting, the Grail is hidden in Red's area, and each nation starts with a different advantage, such as a built capital, an army, higher-level heroes, or a citadel town. Ten random monster stacks, ten mines, and a creature bank add to the exploration.
