Coalition Wars — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Coalition Wars is an extra large underground map on a 144 by 144 grid, built for four players with one human seat at most, split into two teams. Its premise is that France, under Emperor Bonaparte, is under heavy attack by a Coalition army, and Paris may fall at any moment. The human player must keep the enemy from seizing it. Blue plays Castle, while Red, Tan, and Green are computer controlled with random factions, and the difficulty is Impossible. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and the game is lost if the specified town falls. Rock covers nearly half the terrain, with dirt, water, and grass making up the rest. The map holds 22 towns, 15 heroes, 95 mines, 59 creature banks, and 110 random artifacts, plus the Sentinel's Shield and Titan's Gladius placed by hand. Wandering monsters include seventeen Water Elemental stacks and several dragons.
