When Seas Were Deeper — HotA 1.3.0+

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

When Seas Were Deeper imagines a future where the Avalanche archipelago has merged into a vast peninsula, rising above the water to reveal a sunken fleet that attracts salvage seekers. This extra large 144 by 144 map has a single surface level, eight players who can all be human, and no teams. Each color fields a different town: Stronghold, Dungeon, Conflux, Rampart, Inferno, Tower, Castle or Fortress. Water covers about 44 percent of the land, with grass, swamp and lava filling the rest. Players can claim treasure from 60 mines, 103 creature banks and 109 artifacts, while 607 roaming monster stacks and dwellings holding Griffins add challenge. Victory means defeating all enemies, and a player loses after losing every town and hero.

Author's description

In the future, the Avalanche archipelago will only be a part of the huge peninsula. Now the peninsula is only protruding from the water, revealing a fleet of sunken ships, which, naturally, attract treasure hunters of all races and colors.
