The dungeon town is an evil alignment town type with overlord and warlock hero classes. The dungeon towns are built to act as bases from which to wage campaigns of conquest for wealth and power. Similarly minded creatures are attracted as allies. Other dungeon creatures are in thrall to their masters. Dungeon armies are possessed of a variety of long ranged attacks, have effective damage dealing troops, and have the ability to greatly disrupt the strategies of their enemies.

Although dungeon is quite expensive, it has good magical capabilities (e.g. mana vortex) and powerful troops like black dragons, which are among the strongest creatures in Erathia.

Structures

Dungeon town seen from inside

Blacksmith
The Blacksmith has no Ammo Cart (Inferno, Stronghold, Tower only) and no First Aid Tent (Fortress,Rampart,Necropolis only) just a Ballista.

Ressource Silo
Dungeon towns Resource Silos produce 1 Sulfur each day.

A Red Dragon costs 2500 gold and 1 additional Sulfur,a Black Dragon 4000 gold and 2 additional Sulfur.

Cities with Resource Silos that produce +1 Ore and +1 Wood each day like Castle (Angels are +1 gem, Archangels are +3 gems), Necropolis (only Ghost Dragons require minerals, 1 mercury each), Stronghold (Ancient Behemoths require 1 crystal) and Fortress (Chaos Hydras require Sulfur) might be better off in the beginning, a Dungeon town is selfsufficient in terms of minerals with a Resource Silo only lacking money to profit from level 7 creature growth safe plague.

Spells
The Mage Guild has a high assortment of spells, having any level of spells available in standard quantity.

Spells in the Mage Guild on full extension level would be 5 of 1st level, 4 of 2nd level, 3 of 3rd level, 2 fourth level, 1 fifth level ,depending on Mage Guild extension level (1 to 5).

Spells not appearing in a Dungeon Mage Guild are Death Ripple (all battlefield damage to living creatures) and Animate Dead (ressurecting undead) (both more of a Necropolis thing), Prayer (attack, defense and speed enhancement by 2 or 4 points) and Air Elemental (one of the four elemental summoning spells).

A Tower town could have additional spells via an optional Library and thus one additional spell per level more with this Library building, a Conflux town would have all spells learned on visit given expert Wisdom and a Grail building.

A Fortress or Stronghold town would only have spells up to and including 3rd level. A Castle town would only have spells up to and including 4th level.

Dungeon-Specific Buildings

• Artifact Merchants (like Tower and Conflux towns)

• Mana Vortex (unique Dungeon feature, +100% mana and capacity (until the mana runs out, like a Magic Spring) to one hero every 7 days)
• Battle Scholar Academy (unique Dungeon feature, like a learning stone)
• Guardian of Earth (Grail Building) (+12 spell power to defending hero Dungeon special, else 5k Gold each day additionally, +50% creature growth like other Grail buildings)

Creature dwellings

• Warren 14x Troglodyte (50 gold, 700 gold/week) or Infernal Troglodyte (65 gold, 900 gold/week) each week
• Harpy Loft 8x Harpy (130 gold, 1040 gold/week) or Harpy Hag (170 gold, 1360 gold/week) each week
• Pillar of Eyes 7x Beholder (250 gold, 1750 gold/week) or Evil Eye (280 gold,1960 gold each week)

• Dragon Cave 1x Red Dragon (2500 gold, 1 sulfur each week) or Black Dragon (4000 gold, 2 sulfur each week)

a full creature assortment of a weekly Dungeon town creature growth, all 7 levels, upgraded is 13365 gold, 2 sulfur, which would, given Orb of Vulnerability (because of the Black Dragons and their spell immunity to all spells) require 4th level Armageddon, Fire Magic at Expert and 4 spell power (or, to not damage ones own units, the Armageddon's Blade (artifact) - which might not work on Black Dragons with Orb of Vulnerability - Orb of Vulnerability and killing ones own units might be a little bit of a Sacrifice but given that Dungeon is evil it could be worthwile).
