================= Dungeon Keeper 2 Map Information =================
====================================================================

General info:
  Map Name:       Elemental^Keepers
  Map Version:    1.00
  Release Date:   12/5/99 (First Release)
  For:            Dungeon Keeper 2
  Type:           Multiplayer/Skirmish (works best in skirmish)
  Players:        2-4
  Size:           99 x 100
  Made by:        DREW (ASP)

Description:      Can you battle against the very forces of nature?  Defeat 3 enemy
		  keepers, each a Master of Earth, Fire, or Water.  PLUS Kings, Princes,
		  12 well-hidden Secrets, Multiple Hero Attacks & Puzzles to solve while
		  you build Stone Barricades, Grated Doors, & BIG Sentries! Size:99x100

General Shape:    The Red Player starts in the center of the map & is the focus
		  of most hero attacks.  The Blue Keeper starts in the northeast
		  & masters water & lightning.  The Green Keeper starts in the
 		  south mastering the earth elements & the undead.  The Yellow
		  Keeper starts in the northwest mastering lava & fire.

Map Info:	  Most hero gate attacks are timed, yet claiming land across the rivers
		  of lava or water will cause King Reginald & his heroes to attack you!
		  During the game you will gain traps & spells to use against your foes.
	 	  The Red Keeper starts with 1 Mistress, 1 Vampire, & 1 Giant.
		  The Blue Keeper starts with 8 Mistresses, a Dark Angel, & a Prince.
		  The Green Keeper starts with 8 Vampires, a Skeleton, & a Prince.
		  The Yellow Keeper starts with 8 Giants, a Dark Angel, & a Prince.
		  Most hero attacks will be focused on you (the Red Player) & although
		  v1.6 has made AI Keepers lower their defenses on all maps the hero 
		  attacks alone will be a deadly challenge.  v1.6 has also made many hero
		  gates into black holes.  I left them this way since the hero gates 
		  still work & if Bullfrog's v1.7 re-corrects this they'll look GREAT.

Starting Gold:    5000
Unminded Gold:    2 large blocks & 8 other gold areas
Gems:             1 for the red player, 2 for the other players
Portals:          2 for each player, 1 large one for the red player
Secrets:          12, some are hidden VERY well
Things:		  81 (lots of details)
Traps:		  58 enemy traps start pre-built on this map, beware
Land:             Lots of areas to build
Heroes:           32 start on the map plus several hero attacks from various gates.

Puzzles:	  1> Goblin Puzzle - Can you save all 5 goblins right outside your heart
		  from certain death?  I could only save 4 so far.

		  2> Hidden Neutral Creatures - Neutral creatures are well hidden & trapped
		  throughout the realm, find a way to save them to increase your forces.
		
		  3> Hidden Portal Creature - a hero traitor secretly awaits to come from
		  your portal to join your forces.  Can you build/obtain the right room
		  to lure him?

For Best Play:    Use 3 Master Keepers with default settings for the best & most
		  interesting results.  This will allow you to find new ways to defeat
		  your enemies.  Changing these could cause AI Keepers to attack you too
		  soon (too hard) or make it too easy for you.  This map is of an expert
		  difficulty level, play against weaker keepers for an easier map. 
		  Although the hero attacks are still VERY HARD.
		  
Warning:	  Playing against Conqueror or Pyschotic Keepers increases the difficulty
		  drastically as they will probably attack you within the first 10 to 30
		  minutes of the game!

Multiplayer:      For multiplayer games, all the computers must have the map installed.

Installation:     You must have extracted all the files to be reading this --
                  now just copy all the .kld and .kwd files into your
                  Dungeon Keeper 2 \DATA\EDITOR\MAPS directory, and the .bmp
                  files into your \DATA\EDITOR\MAPS\THUMBNAILS directory.
                  If it's working, the map should appear in the map list.

Updates:          Possible since I always like to improve things.  Suggestions welcome.
