The Slayer — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Slayer is a medium underground map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 72 by 72 tiles and set on Normal difficulty. It centers on a rescue: Nagas have carried the hero's daughter off to their subterranean kingdom, and the player must gather forces and invade. Two colors take part, but only one seat can be human, since Blue is computer-controlled. Red plays Stronghold, while Blue fields Tower and Stronghold. There are no teams. Victory requires capturing one specific town, and defeat comes if a particular hero is lost. Rough ground and rock cover most of the terrain, with swamp and water making up part of the rest. Among the eight towns and wandering forces are Medusa and Naga Queen stacks, dwellings for Behemoths and Faerie Dragons, and the artifact Titan's Gladius.
