Caught in the Middle (Allies) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Caught in the Middle (Allies) is a medium 72x72 map with an underground level, built for the Shadow of Death version of the game and rated Expert. It holds five players in three teams, with up to three human seats; the Tan and Orange colors are controlled by the computer. The author's description frames the story as two rival landholders who have fallen into war over a wager about who owns more land, leaving the player stuck between them. Red, Blue and Green each draw from six factions, Tan plays Inferno and Orange plays Castle. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Terrain is mostly rock and grass, with some subterranean ground and water. Highlights include a Rust Dragon and a Faerie Dragon as wandering monsters, an Admiral's Hat placed on the map, and 10 creature banks.
