The Showdown 2 — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Showdown 2 is a medium two-player map on a 72 by 72 grid, with an underground level included. Two kingdoms at opposite ends of the map face each other in a long-standing rivalry, and the author describes the conflict as a final reckoning that starts once both sides are ready. Each player's faction is random, and the map is played at Impossible difficulty with no teams and no computer-only colors. Victory requires defeating every enemy, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mainly grass, subterranean, and rock, with some sand and about eight percent water. Six towns, a set of wandering monsters including Black Dragons, Gold Dragons, and Archangels, and fifteen named artifacts are spread across the map, along with mines, creature banks, and monoliths and portals.
