A War for Peace — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
A War for Peace is an Extra Large 144x144 map for Shadow of Death with an underground level, built for eight players, all of whom can be human, with no teams and no computer-only colors. The author's description frames it as a conflict that erupts after a wave of unrest and the deaths of many rulers, where returning diplomats turn to a war with no rules and the last side standing takes the world. Rock covers about 40 percent of the terrain, with water around 21 percent. Each color receives two factions, except Pink, which is random. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Notable features include 32 towns, 133 mines, 37 creature banks, and 11 monoliths and portals, plus a Grail, a seer hut, and 66 random artifacts alongside a set of named ones.
