The Archangel — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Archangel is an extra-large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles, set at Impossible difficulty, for eight players with only one human seat and two teams. The author's description, written in Danish, tells of a peaceful land whose protecting angel vanishes, letting demonic forces flood in; the player's task is to find the missing Archangel and destroy the devil's knights. Victory requires defeating one specific hero, while losing a specific town ends the game. Factions include Rampart, Fortress, Castle, Inferno, Stronghold and Tower, with several colors assigned random towns. Water covers about a fifth of the terrain, with rock, rough ground and grass making up most of the rest. The map holds 48 towns, 13 placed heroes, 67 mines and the Grail, along with wandering stacks of Titans, Chaos Hydras and Black Dragons, and a number of named artifacts.
