There can be only one — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

There Can Be Only One is a large underground map measuring 108 by 108 tiles, played on hard difficulty with seven players, six of whom can be human. The seven colors are split among rival factions: two Castles (Red and Blue), a Dungeon, a Tower, a Stronghold, a Rampart, and a Fortress, with the Dungeon player controlled by the computer alone. There are no teams. Victory requires defeating every enemy, while a player loses once all towns and heroes are gone. The terrain is mostly rock and grass, with about ten percent water, and the map holds 22 towns, 62 mines, and a Grail. Notable neutral forces include wandering Grand Elves, Diamond Golems, and Gold Dragons, plus two placed artifacts, the Sandals of the Saint and the Vial of Lifeblood.
