The Lovers — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Lovers is a large underground map measuring 108 by 108, played on Normal difficulty by up to four players, with only one seat open to a human. The other colours, Orange, Purple and Pink, are computer-controlled, and there are no teams. The factions in play are Tower, Necropolis, Rampart, Stronghold, Castle, Fortress, Inferno and Dungeon. Water covers about 42 percent of the terrain, with dirt, grass and snow making up much of the rest. Victory requires seizing the Titan's Gladius, while the game ends if the hero Adelaide falls. The map also asks players to rescue a cleric's beloved before rivals reach them. Notable features include 29 towns, 120 mines, 15 monoliths and portals, and wandering Naga Queens and Master Genies.

Author's description

Find the Titan's Gladius to win. Rescue the lover of the cleric, Adelaide, before your neighbours or the dastardly Pink. This is your quest. If you do not rescue the lover, Adelaide will lose the will to fight, and your game is over. Lose Adelaide and your game is over and the lover dies also.
