The Nexus(Duel) — RoE

The Nexus (Duel) is a two-player map set on a large 108 by 108 tile battlefield with an underground level. Its story, as the author tells it, centres on a travelling wizard who offers passage to a distant unclaimed island, and on the rival war that follows once several parties accept. Water covers about 38 percent of the surface, with rock and grassland making up most of the rest. Each player begins with a random faction, and both players are human, with no teams and no computer-only colours. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds ten towns, 43 mines, 28 monoliths and portals, and the Grail, along with 50 randomly placed artifacts and 84 random monster stacks. Wandering guards include Stone Gargoyles and Troglodytes, and dwellings offer creatures such as Angels and Dendroid Guards.
