Audaciousness — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Audaciousness is an extra large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles, set at the Impossible difficulty level and built for the Shadow of Death expansion. It supports eight players, with up to two human seats and the other six controlled by the computer. Players are arranged into three teams, and the factions include Rampart for Red, Fortress for Tan and Green, and Inferno for the four remaining computer colors, with Blue assigned at random. Winning requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses once every town and hero has been removed. The landscape is mostly lava, with dirt and swamp making up the rest. Across the map sit 26 towns, roaming monsters such as Azure Dragons and Master Gremlins, twelve dwelling types, four placed artifacts including the Shield of the Damned, 152 mines, and 88 creature banks.
