Tears of the Dragon — HotA 1.5.0+

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Tears of the Dragon is a huge underground map of 180 by 180 tiles, built for Horn of the Abyss 1.5.0 and later and rated Impossible. Its premise, as the author describes it, is that a Leviathan stuck on a reef threatens to collapse the known world, and the only remedy is to find a vial holding the titular tears and carry it across the Ancient City of Lublin. Six players are placed, with four slots open to humans and two reserved for the computer, grouped into five teams. Factions include Necropolis, Conflux, Tower, Castle, Rampart and others, with one slot randomly assigned. The map is about 40 percent water, and the rest is largely subterranean ground, dirt and grass. Wandering dragons, hydras and griffins roam the land, and the Grail is placed on the map, alongside many artifacts and creature banks.
