04. Shaktod-map — AB

This large 108 by 108 Armageddon's Blade map has an underground level and is set at Normal difficulty. Eight players take part, with up to seven controlled by humans, and the red player is computer-only. Each player leads a different faction, from Inferno and Castle to Stronghold and Fortress, and there are no teams. Grass, subterranean ground and water make up the terrain, with water covering about a quarter of the surface. The map holds 25 towns, 75 mines, 56 creature banks, 230 wandering monster stacks and the Grail. Victory requires defeating one specific hero, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The description, which is cut short, tells of a generous figure who keeps helping others only to be betrayed and used, and who eventually resolves to change course.
