Afrika — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Afrika is an extra large 144 by 144 map with an underground level, designed for seven players who can all be human, with no teams. The factions are Castle, Necropolis, Inferno, Fortress, and Stronghold, with Necropolis and Inferno each used twice. The story, as the author describes it, centers on a rare treasure hidden somewhere in Africa, which sets several peoples against one another in a race to find it. Rock covers about half the terrain, water about a quarter, and sand a little over a tenth. Players win by constructing a Grail structure and lose by losing all their towns and heroes. The map holds 13 towns, 61 mines, and the Grail, along with named artifacts such as the Titan's Gladius and the Cornucopia, and dwellings guarded by creatures including the Azure Dragon and the Behemoth.

Když se africký lid dozvěděl o vzácném pokladu, který je zakopán kdesi v Africe, obsadil města a hrady, a rozhodl se, že poklad najde. Každý chtěl získat pro sebe. A tak začala Velká Africká válka.
