The Alornian Dispute — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Alornian Dispute is an extra large underground map measuring 144 by 144 tiles for Restoration of Erathia, set at normal difficulty. Its backstory has Belgarath imprisoning the sleeping Torak somewhere in Cthol Murgos instead of Belgarion confronting him at Cthol Mishrak, while the Tolnedran king's actions strain relations among the Alorn realms and Taur Urgas plans to strike west. Eight players, all of whom can be human, form three teams, with Castle, Rampart, Fortress, Tower, Inferno, Necropolis and Stronghold among the factions. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers half the terrain. The map holds 18 towns, 10 placed heroes, 213 random monster stacks, 84 mines, and artifacts such as the Boots of Speed.

Author's description

In this scenario, Belgarion never traveled to Cthol Mishrak. Instead, Belgarath imprisoned the sleeping Torak to somewhere in Cthol Murgos. The king of Tolnedra, Ran Borune XXIII, broke the relations between the other Alorns. Taur Urgas took the chance and will eventually attack west.
