Swamp Thing as Inferno — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Swamp Thing as Inferno is a large underground map measuring 108 by 108, rated Hard, for three players with only one human seat; the other two colors, Green and Orange, are computer-controlled. The Inferno player faces a Tower and a Fortress opponent, and the author notes that the computer gets easier access to the rich areas of those sides, while the human starts with a pair of capable heroes. Teams are not used. Rock covers close to half the terrain and water about a third, with some swamp. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds ten towns, four starting heroes, and a Grail, along with many mines, creature banks, seer huts, and monoliths. Notable finds include eight Angel stacks among the wandering monsters and a set of named artifacts such as the Dragon Scale Shield and Boots of Speed.
