szachownica — RoE

Szachownica is a small 36 by 36 underground-level map for Restoration of Erathia, rated Impossible, with eight computer-controlled players and room for only one human. There are no teams. Blue plays Rampart, Red plays Castle, Tan plays Tower, Green plays Inferno, Orange plays Necropolis, Purple plays Dungeon, Teal plays Stronghold, and Pink plays Fortress. Grass covers about half the land, with swamp, sand, and water making up the rest. The map holds eight towns and sixty mines, and dwellings for a range of creatures from Pikemen to Dendroid Guards. A single timed event is scheduled. Victory requires defeating every enemy, while the human player loses by losing all towns and heroes.
