The Riftwar — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Riftwar is an extra large underground-capable map of 144 by 144 tiles for Restoration of Erathia, set on a grassy landscape with roughly a third of its surface covered by water. The author's description frames it as a fragile peace between two kingdoms that is threatened when an alien ship is found wrecked on a shore and more of its crew begin to appear. Five players take part, split into four teams, with two human slots and three computer-controlled colors, on the Impossible difficulty. Factions include Stronghold, Castle, Tower, and Necropolis. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. The map holds 30 towns and 65 mines, with a large population of wandering Centaur Captain stacks, plus placed artifacts such as the Sword of Judgement and the Vial of Lifeblood.
