The Lord of the Rings — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Lord of the Rings is an extra large underground-enabled map measuring 144 by 144 for six players, all of whom may be human, split into two teams. The author frames it as a war in Middle Earth in which the player chooses between a good alliance of the Red, Blue and Tan players and a dark alliance of the Green, Orange and Purple players. Factions include Castle, Rampart, Fortress, Inferno, Necropolis, Tower, Dungeon and Stronghold, with the Blue and Purple players each starting with two. The map is rated Hard and is about 48 percent rock and 15 percent water. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses when all towns and heroes are gone. Terrain includes 20 towns, 19 placed heroes, 128 random monster stacks, 58 random artifacts, 53 mines and two timed events, with a Green Dragon as a dwelling creature.
