Ambition — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Ambition is a large underground map measuring 108 by 108 tiles, built for the Shadow of Death version of Heroes of Might and Magic III. It supports eight players, with six seats open to humans and the Teal and Pink colors reserved for computer opponents, all of them Dungeon players. The remaining six colors start with random factions, and no teams are set. Victory requires defeating every enemy, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly subterranean, with dirt, water and snow areas making up the rest. Wandering Infernal Troglodytes and Harpy Hags are the most common roaming stacks, and the map holds 24 towns, 116 mines and a large number of placed artifacts, including several Titan's and Shield of the Damned pieces. The author's stated aim is simple: eliminate every neighbor before they eliminate you.
