Red vs. others.Special Loss: Lose K`TakouSpecial Other: noneDifficulty: ImpossibleSize: Extra-Large, 2 Layer*****!!!Warning!!!******A difficult map that will require 40+ hours of playtime! (If you don't believetry it)Narrative: K'Takou is the last descendant of the great Tarelks clan, which lost the empiretwo centuries ago. The story of the Tarelks clan begins centuries ago.Some say the clan is a successor of the ancient Wizard dynasty and thatsomehow explains the phenomenal abilities some of the Tarelks kings had.They have ruled Elandia through almost the whole of its history.Many of them were great heroes glorified in songs and legends, but one namestill horrifies the Powers of Evil - Anduran! The Tarelks clan has alwaysbeen a symbol of just and stable rule, but they are best known for their warwith the cult of the Black Sun. The fortunes of war ebbed back and forththrough the years till the Golden Battle, when Anduran's troops finallypushed the hordes of the cult behind the magical barrier in Dragons Woods.Anduran never returned, but the story of the Light that mystically gildedhis armour at the crucial moment of the battle, giving him inhuman powers,still leads many people to search for his grave.Everyone thought that Workil and his creatures were locked away forever.As the years passed the strength of the Tarelks clan began to languish becausethe great enemy had been defeated.The Tarelks kings grew idle and careless.Their rule became bad and unstable.Slowly Elandia fell into decline and the people began to murmur against the King.The day finally came. Riots suddenly broke out everywhere, covering the landwith thousands of dead and homeless. The King was killed. The Tarelks clanlost the throne and the empire. Elandia was divided into small kingdoms whichexist to the present day.At that time no-one noticed that Workil had escaped from his prison. His hordeswere still behind the barrier but he didn't need them. All he needed was gold -bloody gold and greedy kings. And after the division of Elandia there were lotsof the latter. Four years later Workil was the real ruler of all the kingdoms.Their kings were just marionettes in his hands, although the people still sawthem as their true leaders.Nowadays most people believe that Workil is still locked away and in their earsthe name of the Tarelks clan sounds like the end of the world. Today's storiestell only about the end of the Tarelks reign - the name has become a symbol ofwar, hunger and death! But there remain a few people who are still loyal to theTarelks clan and understand the danger of the present situation.They believe in a legend about a man who will kill the DragonLord with amagic sword covered with the blood of the ancient wizards.Can you believe thatthis man is K'Takou, the third brother, the youngest and the most unskilled?Hmm......Players: [H] Tarelks ClanRed (K`Takou)[C] Elandia OccupiersBlue (Dorian, Melaso, etc..)Tan (Karelia, Selenia, etc...)Orange (Titus I, Titus II, L`Taka, Trulik )Green (Behemoth, Severa, Ion Van )[C] Underworld Swamps Occupiers (The Ancient Guards)Purple (Morik, Torik , Gorik, Vorik , Alkin and Workill)[C] Dragon Woods OccupiersTeal (Dragonor, Manticor, Jeddite )[C] The Cult of The Black SunPink (EvilEye, Rashka, Zydar, HorrorFace, Olema, Xeron, Deadhand)Description (technical):This map was a titanic undertaking.There is no major terrain. The enemys use alltowns. The opponents have a huge force and resource advantage but quest guardsand border guards stop them to reach you (for some time...). The supply withresources is very difficult because for a long time of the game you will haveonly sawmill and ore pit. You will be forced to search for alternative ways ofsupply.(read carefully the timed events and all other events)Remember that almost everything on the map is put on purpouse, with some idea!Mage guilds do not have their full complement of spells; however, there are norandom spells.Every spell can be obtained from the mage guids, except for:-town portal -fly-dimension door -disguiseThese spells can only be obtained through quests.This is meant to be a long game, with the CPU taking long turns. Expect to seemany clues given in events, when you pick up resources, while you are walking,around witch huts, and even from monsters as you are about to engage them.Due to the great lack of resources in the beginning, I recommend to play thisgame on "normal" or "hard". Besides, for many people this map will indeed beimpossible.Play-Testers: <Pez 'Earbleeding Techno' Geordie> pez@newcastle98.freeserve.co.ukSPOILERS: WARNING!!!
