World War 3 — RoE

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

World War 3 is a medium-sized Heroes of Might and Magic III map, measuring 72 by 72 tiles and set partly underground, built for the Restoration of Erathia version and rated Hard. Three computer-controlled players, Castle in red, Tower in blue, and Inferno in tan, share the field, and only one seat can be taken by a human, with no teams. The author explains that the three towns must grow their armies to get past the many Black Dragons blocking their routes to victory. Winning requires eliminating every enemy, while the player loses if all towns and heroes are gone. Rock covers the largest share of the terrain, with grass, water, and snow making up the rest. Wandering monsters include Pikemen, Champions, and Demons, and six artifacts such as the Titan's Cuirass and the Sword of Judgement are placed across the map, alongside 25 mines and six monoliths and portals.
