The Slayer — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Slayer is a small underground map of 36 by 36 tiles for one human player facing one computer-controlled opponent, set in the Restoration of Erathia version of Heroes of Might and Magic III. The description suggests a quest to confront a dragon that is ravaging a homeland, reached after a warning arrives from the south. Red is computer-only and fights with Tower, Inferno and Necropolis, while Blue plays Castle. There are no teams. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and the hero can be lost if a specific named hero falls. The terrain is a mix of swamp, grass, water and lava, with about 17 percent water. Notable features include several artifacts such as the Centaur's Axe and the Sphere of Permanence, two seer huts, two mines, and a set of wandering monsters that includes Fire Elementals and Beholders.

Author's description

When you was a small child you heard a legend about the wizard and his creature named as Great Dragon. The years went and went into these days and you received a message from your southern folks two days ago. They said that the legend is true and that the Great Dragon is destroying his home land.
