The Imp — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Imp is a small underground map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 36 by 36 with two levels, and it is rated hard. Two players take part, Red as Rampart and a computer-only Tan as Dungeon, so only one human can play. There are no teams. The victory condition is to transport the Orb of Silt back to Stillwater, and the defeat condition is losing a specific hero. Grass, rock and subterranean ground make up most of the terrain, with a little water. Players will find a mix of wandering monsters, including a Cyclops King, a Cavalier and an Infernal Troglodyte, along with the Clover of Fortune, the Shield of the Yawning Dead and several other artifacts, three seer huts, and ten monoliths and portals.

Author's description

The Annoying Imp has somehow un-woven the protective forcefield around Stillwater and has spirited away the Orb of Silt. Bring the Orb and the Imp back to Stillwater to win.
