The Quest for the Grail — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Quest for the Grail is an extra large 144 by 144 map for Restoration of Erathia, with both surface and underground levels. Rock covers about 34 percent of its terrain and water about 28 percent. It supports five players, four of whom can be human, and the fifth slot is a computer-controlled Dungeon player in pink. There are no teams, and the other four players start with random factions. The difficulty is set to Impossible. The premise is a race to find the Holy Grail, and the description urges players to move quickly and without mercy. Victory requires acquiring one specific artifact, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Highlights include 29 towns, 131 mines, wandering Thunderbirds and Ghost Dragons, and the Grail itself.
