Andynor — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Andynor is an Extra Large 144x144 map for Shadow of Death that includes an underground level. It is set in the near future in the kingdom of Larkinor, which once thrived as a land of opportunity until the king's chief mage gained too much power, turned against the crown, and overthrew it. The map is rated Impossible and supports five players, with only one human seat and four computer-controlled colors. Players are split into two teams. The factions are Castle, Stronghold, Fortress, Necropolis and Conflux. Victory and defeat both hinge on specific heroes rather than standard conditions. The land is mostly rock, water and sand, with water covering about 16 percent. The map holds 26 towns, 22 heroes, and a large number of wandering monsters, including Water Elementals and Archangels, along with dwelling creatures, placed artifacts, mines and monoliths.
