The Arena - The Chaos Castle — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Chaos Castle is a large underground map for eight players, measuring 108 by 108 tiles and set to Impossible difficulty. It was made for the Armageddon's Blade expansion. All eight seats can be human-controlled, and there are no teams or computer-only colors. Red plays Inferno, Blue Castle, Tan Tower, Green Rampart, Orange Necropolis, Purple Dungeon, Teal Stronghold, and Pink Fortress. The goal is to capture the castle in the middle of the map, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Grass, rough ground, snow, and water cover the surface, with water making up about 13 percent of the tiles. The 27 towns, 124 mines, and wandering Ice and Water Elementals are spread across the map, and the Grail is among the placed objects.
