Back home — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Back Home is a large Shadow of Death map measuring 108 by 108 tiles, played on the surface only, with no underground level. It is built for five players, though only one can be human; the other four colors (Red, Blue, Orange and Pink) are computer-controlled, and Green is the human slot. There are no teams, so every player fights alone. The factions in play are Stronghold, Fortress, Rampart, Inferno and Necropolis. Victory comes from capturing one specific town, while a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Roughly a third of the terrain is water, with grass covering much of the rest, alongside dirt and lava. Expect wandering centaurs, gnoll marauders and wood elves, dwellings for a wide range of creatures, and a handful of notable artifacts such as Angel Wings and Boots of Speed. The difficulty is set to Expert.
