The Arena — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Arena is a small two-player underground map measuring 36 by 36, set on Normal difficulty. Both seats are meant for human players, and there are no teams. Each side receives a random faction, and the design is a simple capture-the-flag variant in which the armies you build and the rival you face determine the outcome. Victory requires transporting the Badge of Courage, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock, with sand, dirt, and grass covering the rest, and there is no water. Seven towns, eight heroes, eight random artifacts, nine monoliths and portals, and three timed events are spread across the underground.
