Tale of Two Lands — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Tale of Two Lands is an Extra Large map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 144 by 144 tiles with an underground level. Four players compete, and all four may be human, with no teams and random factions for each side. The map centers on two landmasses at war, and the best approach is to seize one before crossing to the other. Rock covers about half the terrain, with water, dirt and lava making up the rest. Eight towns, 41 mines and 24 creature banks are placed across the map, along with 159 random monster stacks, the Grail, and artifacts such as the Helm of Chaos. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Difficulty is Normal.
