Research Laboratory

Treasure4 rollsScales with difficulty

Gives a very large amount of Gold and valuable artifacts after defeating its guard.

When a map is generated this site rolls one of 4 set variants. The guard and the reward come as a pair — you cannot get the richest payout off the weakest guard. Stack sizes below are the Hard (100%) values the game files store; the map's Enemy Strength setting scales them from there.

The battlefield

stack positions come from the game's own spawn maps

You deploy in the shaded centre; the guard is placed around you, down both edges of the field. Closing on one flank turns your back on the other, which is what makes these fights different from a field battle.

In the world

All the “research” here is of necromantic nature — including attempts to resurrect dragons. So far, they have not succeeded, but they’ve certainly accumulated a great deal of funds.
