Winter Palace — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Winter Palace is a small two-player map set on a 36 by 36 surface-level grid, split between grass and snow. The author's blurb frames it as a story about the Ice Queen being turned to evil by the Ice Palace and her chilly magic spreading ruin, with the player riding out to seize that palace. One human player faces a computer opponent in the Blue colors, with no teams. The Red side fields a Castle army and Blue fields a Tower army. Victory comes from capturing one specific town, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Wandering guardians include a Wyvern Monarch, a Green Dragon, and a Minotaur King, and the map holds seven placed artifacts, twelve mines, and ten monoliths and portals.
