Better Homes and Dungeons — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Better Homes and Dungeons is a large underground map of 108 by 108 tiles, built for the Shadow of Death expansion at Expert difficulty. Four players start in play, with two human seats and two computer-only seats for Tan and Green. Each player controls a different faction: Dungeon for Red, Necropolis for Blue, Castle for Tan, and Rampart for Green, with no teams. Water covers about 59 percent of the surface, with rock and subterranean ground making up most of the rest. The first player to accumulate 100,000 gold wins, and a player is eliminated after losing every town and hero. The map holds five towns, twenty heroes, and many guarded mines, creature banks, and artifacts, along with wandering stacks of goblins, skeletons, basilisks, and trolls.
