There Goes the Neighborhood — AB

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

There Goes the Neighborhood is a medium 72x72 Armageddon's Blade map with an underground level, built for two players, one human each, with no teams. The Orange player fields Necropolis and the Purple player fields Inferno, and the author frames the whole thing as a head-to-head contest over which faction is the stronger of the two. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock and dirt cover most of the surface, with subterranean areas and water making up the rest. The map holds six towns, two starting heroes, 24 mines and six timed events. Wandering monsters include Arch Devils, Ghost Dragons and Crusaders, and the dwellings offer creatures such as Bone Dragons, Liches and Pit Fiends. Nine notable artifacts are placed around the map, among them the Red Dragon Flame Tongue and the Helm of the Alabaster Unicorn.
