The Rock — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Rock is an extra large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles, rated hard. Water covers about 59 percent of it, with grass, rough ground, and sand making up most of the rest. Seven colors take part, but only one seat is meant for a human, and no teams are set. Red plays Castle, while the others field Necropolis, Stronghold, Fortress, Tower, Rampart, and a Pink force of Inferno and Necropolis. Victory requires defeating every enemy, and the player loses if a specific town falls. The author describes captive warlords and riddles that unlock treasures. Notable features include 13 towns, 70 mines, 62 artifacts, and 22 monoliths and portals.
