This is a list of tricks employed by Map creators to achieve some particular scripted outcome or to set up certain types of puzzles.
Inaccessible Towns
Towns can be placed with no route for heroes to access them. This is used to force a player to fight some "boss" hero instead of having the hero dismissed after a week without a town.
Darkness
Necropolis towns are sometimes used as a map building tool by the Horn of the Abyss team. These towns are not accessible by the player. Since the Cover of Darkness resets map vision around them each day, it forces the player to solve movement-based map puzzles before moving to the next area.
