A random map template for Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era, created in HeroesWorld RMG Template Builder v1.2.8.

How this will play:
  • 4 players on a 144x144 map: fast contact with tighter expansion room.
  • Jebus / Spider: a rich, heavily-guarded central zone everyone fights over.
  • Neutral stacks are tough; border guards are standard.
  • Resources are at 190% and structures at 200%, so expansion feels rich.
  • Each player starts with a hero cap of 1, rising +1 per castle up to 1.
  • Classic victory: defeat opponents normally.
  • Players never share a direct border — neutral zones always separate them.
  • The central zone holds 1 castle to fight over.
  • The engine randomizes the map rotation each game (the preview shows one sample).
  • Roads connect zones, so travel between them reads clearly in-game.
  • Player castles share a matched faction.
  • Each player gets a nearby spot to claim early — say a second town or a few mines — a short way from their main town.
  • Each player starts near 3 castles.
  • Each player starts with mines near their castle: 3× sawmill, 3× ore, 3× gold, 9× rare.
  • Faction laws level at 150% and astrology at 150% of the normal speed.
  • Each neutral castle zone holds 3 castles to capture.
