Alive skeletons — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Alive Skeletons is a small two-player underground map set on a 36 by 36 grid, where both players command Necropolis armies. The author's premise is a contest between two necromancers to slay and raise a thousand creatures as skeletons, with a warning that cheating is not ruled out. A player wins by accumulating 1000 creatures, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Each side has two towns and two heroes, with no teams and no computer-only colors. The terrain is mostly dirt, with rough, subterranean, and sand ground making up the rest. Wandering Wraiths, Vampire Lords, Black Knights, and Power Liches roam the map, and skeleton dwellings supply recruits. Eleven artifacts are scattered across the map, along with six mines and six seer huts.

Двое некромантов решили устроить соревнование: кто быстрей убьёт и воскресит в скелетов1000 тварей. Но никто не говорил, что нельзя жульничать...
