SwampKing — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

SwampKing is a small 36 by 36 underground map for Restoration of Erathia at Normal difficulty. Four colors take part, with Dungeon, Tower and two Fortress factions, and no teams. One human player can join, while Red, Blue and Green are computer-controlled. The premise is that rival lords are at war, but the player's side has lost its mines and a castle to a rebellious half-brother who must fall first. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and losing every town and hero ends the game. Terrain is mostly subterranean, with rock, swamp and dirt covering much of the rest. Highlights include six towns, twelve random artifacts, the Grail, 29 mines, three creature banks and twelve monoliths and portals.
