The land of Mordor — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Land of Mordor is an extra large Heroes III map for the Restoration of Erathia version, measuring 144 by 144 and including an underground level. Four players, each controlling one faction (Dungeon, Rampart, Castle and Fortress), can all be human, and there are no teams, so every rival must be defeated to win. Losing all towns and heroes ends a game. The map is hard, and its author describes it as a war-focused place where peace is unlikely. Its terrain is mostly rock, grass, subterranean ground and dirt, with about 8 percent water. Among its features are 10 towns, 193 random monster stacks, 92 random artifacts, 42 mines, 9 creature banks, 4 seer huts and the Grail, plus several placed artifacts such as the Golden Bow.
