The Lord of War — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Lord of War is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map for Restoration of Erathia, with an underground level and water covering about a quarter of its surface. Its story follows an ancient warlord who first explored the continents and united them, though the description portrays him as a barbarian rather than a peaceful ruler. Eight players are set, with one human player allowed and seven computer colors, and there are no teams. Red begins with both Tower and Dungeon, while the other colors each field one faction, including Stronghold, Fortress, Inferno and Necropolis. Difficulty is Impossible. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a specific hero's loss ends the game. Notable finds include the Grail and the Crown of Dragontooth.
