Andrew's Exploits — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Andrew's Exploits is a medium underground map for Shadow of Death, rated expert, covering 72 by 72 tiles of mostly rock, grass, and sand with very little water. It supports three players, but only one can be human, and the Red and Green colors are controlled by the computer. Two teams compete: Blue plays Castle, Red plays Necropolis, and Green uses both Castle and Necropolis. The goal centers on freeing the imprisoned princesses Fay and Gella while keeping Duke Andrew, Queen Rimma, and the rescued princesses alive. Victory comes from defeating a specific hero, not from standard conditions, and losing all towns and heroes ends the game. Hero experience is capped at level 30. Notable features include the Grail, several Legion artifacts, and wandering Ghost Dragons.
