The Siege of Pretal — WoG

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Siege of Pretal is a large 108 by 108 map with an underground level, played on the Impossible difficulty. Three players are placed, but only one can be human, and the Tan and Purple colors are run by the computer. Red and Tan use the Stronghold faction, while Purple plays Necropolis, and the players are split into two teams. The city of Pretal on a northeastern peninsula is under siege, and its garrison is still holding out. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and the loss condition is losing a specific town. Rock and water cover much of the terrain, with lava and subterranean areas also present. The map holds 15 towns, 6 heroes, 64 mines, and 43 creature banks, along with the Pendant of Reflection and the Grail.

Author's description

The Barbarian city of Pretal on northeastern peninsula is under siege for more than three successive years. Necromancers' Guild is so desperate to capture the city that it hired another Barbarian tribe in order to conquire Pretal. But the garrison under command of veteran Ergon still holds the city.
