Bandits!! SOD — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Bandits!! SOD is a medium 72 by 72 map for Shadow of Death, with underground levels, set on Impossible difficulty. Five players take part, with up to two human seats. The other three seats are computer-only, held by Green, Orange, and Purple. There are no teams, and every side receives a random faction. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing every town and hero. The map's description pictures a wealthy realm guarded by three rival lords, with bandits appearing in unexpected places. Grass and rock each cover about a third of the land, with water and subterranean ground making up smaller shares. Notable features include an Azure Dragon roaming the map, the Bird of Perception and Stoic Watchman artifacts, and sixteen monoliths and portals alongside thirty-five mines.
