'''Crypt''' is an [[Adventure Map]] location, and commonly known as one of the [[Creature Bank]]s. It is guarded by 50–70 [[Undead]] creatures, whose level varies from two to four. The more guard there is, the better is the reward. Treasure contains [[Gold]] or sometimes one treasure class [[Artifact]].

* Terrain: grass, dirt, snow, swamp, sand.
As with all the Creature Banks, the combat arrangement is unusual, where hero's troops are located in the middle of the [[Battlefield]] surrounded by the guards, and no [[War Machine]]s are present in the combat. In the Crypt, the guards have divided into five stacks; one in every corner and one in the middle of the right edge. If the hero loses or flees from the battle, defeated guardians will not respawn.

Searching the Crypt after the guards have been defeated deacreses the [[Morale]] of the troops -1. The effect is not cumulative, meaning that visiting two Crypts will not give -2 to Morale.

You tentatively approach the burial crypt of ancient warriors. Do you want to search the graves?
* * *
Upon defeating the undead guardians you spend several hours searching the graves and find nothing. Such a despicable act reduces your army's morale.

Crypt is an adventure map location commonly known as a creature bank.

The guards are divided into five stacks (red hexes). All the guard stacks of the same speed attack in alphabetic order of these hexes. The hero's troops are located in blue hexes 1-7 (a tail hex for two-hexed creatures) according to stack positioning in the army slots 1-7. If the hero has less than 7 stacks, e.g. 3, they will be placed in hexes 1-3 no matter how they were placed in the army slots.

Though war machines are not present on the battlefield, they still provide their passive bonuses (i.e. the infinite shots effect from Ammo Cart and the First Aid/First Aid Tent health boost Horn of the Abyss Shadow of Death).

Slain enemies do not respawn (should the hero retreat or be defeated). The damaged stack's losses will not be redistributed among the others. If a stack was destroyed, it changes the guards disposition. Its place on the battlefield will be taken by the next one in the attacking order. (E.g.: If A stack was destroyed, B stack takes its place, C stack takes the freshly vacated place of B and so on).

Horn of the Abyss In Horn of the Abyss, the object's level can be preset by a map-maker.

Searching the crypt after the guards have been defeated decreases morale by 1. Visiting additional crypts will not further decrease morale.

The guards are divided into the stacks of:
