The Sacred Charter — RoE

The Sacred Charter is an extra large underground map, 144 by 144 tiles, for eight players in two teams of four, with up to four human players and four computer-only colors. It is rated hard. The author's note describes a campaign by a sinister lord, backed by three felon lords, against the kingdom of Pompignan, which the charter is meant to defend against. Rock, grass, water and rough ground make up most of the land, and forty-five towns are spread across it. Each color plays a different faction, from Dungeon and Tower to Necropolis and Stronghold. Victory requires capturing one specific town, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds the Grail, four artifacts placed by hand, sixty random artifacts, 144 mines, and eight timed events, along with water elementals and many dwellings and guarded creature banks.
