I believe Steve found it amusing how units kept spawning if he used the 'reset action point' command so he build a map around it. Behind a door right above your heart you'll find gems, and if you go near it enemy imps will keep spawning until you leave. You'll get a massive graveyard to claim and a few hidden 'increase level specials' to make your vampires a bit stronger. When you figure out how where the vampire-spawn is - which is not that difficult - the map is basically over. To the south across a lava lake there's a big army of heroes guarding a locked door with the White Heart and an Avatar. Since you can't build a bridge and you can't claim a hero, your only choice is to use the teleport spell of the vampires, and when you do that, why even bother with the army. I teleported straight onto the white heart with a couple of vampires, have them kill the avatar and the heart for a victory. Only play this map if you like to get lots of vampires for no particular reason.
Interesting map. It's pretty easy once you understand what you have to do.
I accidentally placed it in
/levels/standardbut it does NOT work in that directory. It should be placed in/levels/classic@Yani I updated it so it now comes already configured to be inside of classic, so people can just extract it normally.
