The hero must defeat [[Water Elemental]] guardians. Better guardians means a better reward.
'''Derelict Ship''' is an [[adventure map]] location, and commonly known as one of the [[Creature Bank|creature banks]]. It can only be found in [[water]] and is guarded by 20–60 [[Water Elemental and Ice Elemental|water elementals]]. The more guards there are, the better the reward. The treasure contains {{G}} and possibly one treasure or minor class [[artifact]].

The rotting hulk of a great pirate ship creaks eerily as it is pushed against the rocks. Do you wish to search the ship?
* * *
Upon defeating the Water Elementals you spend several hours sifting through the debris and find nothing. Such a despicable act reduces your army's morale.

Derelict Ship is an adventure map location, and commonly known as one of the creature banks. It can only be found in water and is guarded by 20–60 water elementals. The more guards there are, the better the reward. The treasure contains Gold and possibly one treasure or minor class artifact.

The guards are divided into five stacks of 4/6/8/12 Water Elementals (red hexes) and attack in alphabetic order: from A to E.

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. But 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, the infinite shots effect from Ammo Cart is active.

Slain enemies do not respawn (should the hero retreat or be defeated).

Searching the derelict ship after the guards have been defeated decreases morale by 1. Visiting additional derelict ships will not further decrease morale.
