The Ways — RoE
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Ways is an extra-large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles, set at Normal difficulty and built for up to eight players, with six seats open to humans and two left to the computer in Tan and Pink. No teams are set. Each colour starts with a different town type: Castle, Stronghold, Necropolis, Fortress, Tower, Rampart, Dungeon and Inferno. Rock covers about a third of the land, water about a quarter, and subterranean ground a smaller share. Victory comes from defeating every enemy, and a player loses once all towns and heroes are gone. The map holds 29 towns and 26 placed heroes, along with wandering stacks of wraiths, liches, vampire lords, red dragons and black knights, plus a Grail, several named artifacts and 92 mines.
