Terra Incognita — HotA 1.3.0+
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Terra Incognita is a medium 72 by 72 underground map for Horn of the Abyss 1.3.0 or later, rated Impossible and built for three players, with one human player allowed and two computer-only colors, Tan and Teal, alongside Orange. There are no teams. Tan plays Fortress, Teal plays Tower, and Orange is random. Water covers about two thirds of the surface, with swamp, sand and snow making up the rest. Victory comes from capturing a specific town, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds four towns, fourteen mines, five seer huts, ten creature banks and two monoliths or portals, plus a set of wandering stacks drawn from pirates, sea witches, nixes, genies and others. Placed artifacts include the Crown of the Five Seas and the Royal Armor of Nix.
