Abelia — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Abelia is an Extra Large underground scenario for Shadow of Death, played on a 144 by 144 map with 8 players, only one of whom can be human. The seven computer-controlled colors are split across two teams and field Tower, Dungeon, Tower, Inferno, Necropolis, Fortress, Castle and Stronghold. Difficulty is set to Impossible. The map is about a quarter water and a quarter rock, with dirt and sand covering much of the rest, and it holds 23 towns, 71 mines, and a Grail. Victory comes either by building a Grail structure or by eliminating every enemy, and the game is lost if the time limit runs out. Notable placements include 21 Cyclops King stacks, 15 Azure Dragon stacks, and 15 Dendroid Guard stacks roaming the map, plus a Golden Bow, Equestrian's Gloves and an Orb of Vulnerability.
