The Hive(update) — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Hive(update) is a medium two-player map measuring 72 by 72, with an underground level included. It was built for the Restoration of Erathia version and is set to Impossible difficulty. The author describes it as their first map, blending desert warfare with a showdown-style game. Both players are human, there are no teams, and each side has a random faction. Six towns and two starting heroes are placed. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. The terrain is mostly grass, rock, and subterranean ground, with some rough areas and about nine percent water. Wandering monsters include Efreet Sultans, Royal Griffins, and several dragon types. The map also holds fourteen placed artifacts, including the Tomes of Fire, Air, and Earth Magic, along with 24 creature banks and 16 monoliths and portals.
