Combats Ultimes — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Combats Ultimes is an Extra Large 144x144 map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, with an underground level and an Expert difficulty rating. Seven colors take part across three teams, and only two of them can be played by humans, while the other five are computer-only. The human side is Red and Blue, both Castle, while the computer colors field Dungeon, Stronghold, Inferno, Necropolis and Tower. The terrain is mostly grass and lava, with water and rock making up the rest. The map is won by defeating all enemies and lost when every town and hero is gone. Scattered across the land are 26 towns, wandering dragons, several dwellings with strong creatures, and placed artifacts including Armageddon's Blade and the Vial of Dragon Blood, plus the Grail. The author's description frames it as a clash between human knights and the forces of chaos.
