The Valhalla — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Valhalla is a hard, medium-sized underground map for Restoration of Erathia, measuring 72 by 72. Four players take part, with at most two controlled by humans and Orange and Purple left to the computer. The two teams are Red and Blue on one side and Orange and Purple on the other. Red plays Castle and Inferno, Blue plays Dungeon, Orange has Tower and Fortress, and Purple combines Castle, Rampart, Stronghold and Fortress. The story follows mercenaries hired by Thor to recover a helmet stolen by giants. Victory requires acquiring that artifact, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Water covers 24 percent of the terrain, and the map contains 22 towns, 40 mines, 10 creature banks, and 9 monoliths and portals.
