Apocalypse — SoD

Apocalypse is an extra large 144 by 144 map for Shadow of Death, played at Normal difficulty with underground levels. Six players can take part, all of them human if desired, and no teams are set up, so every faction fights for itself. Each player starts with a random faction. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, while a player loses once every town and hero is gone. The story, told by the author in Russian, describes four surviving lords who renew an old feud after volcanoes and earthquakes open passages underground. Rock, grass, and subterranean terrain cover most of the land, with water making up about fifteen percent. Thirty towns, 140 mines, and 96 randomly placed artifacts are spread across the map, along with wandering Behemoths, Hydras, and Dragons.
