About anything — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The map "About anything" is an Extra Large 144x144 scenario for Shadow of Death with an underground level, set at Normal difficulty. Water covers a little over half the terrain, with rock, rough ground and dirt making up most of the rest. Seven colors are present, but only one player can be human, and the six remaining colors are computer-controlled, grouped into six teams. Factions include Tower, Inferno, Necropolis, Dungeon, Fortress and Castle. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds 16 towns and 19 placed heroes, along with a Grail, 61 mines and a range of placed artifacts and wandering monsters, including several dragon stacks. The author gave only a brief, playful description, so the goals beyond the victory condition are left to the player to discover.
