2006 - Silver Lynx - Alpha — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Silver Lynx Alpha is an Extra Large 144x144 map for Shadow of Death with an underground level, set at Impossible difficulty for seven players, one of whom may be human. The other six colors are computer-controlled, and there are no teams. Five colors are assigned random factions, Purple is fixed to Castle and Rampart, and most of the map is subterranean terrain, with swamp, dirt and water making up the rest. Wandering Phoenixes, Ghost Dragons, Enchanters and Power Liches roam the land, while dwellings offer Angels, Red Dragons, Air Elementals and Faerie Dragons. Among the placed artifacts are the Sword of Judgement, the Boots of Speed and the Endless Bag of Gold, and the Grail is on the map. Victory requires acquiring a specific artifact, and a player loses if a specific hero is lost.
