Companions — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Companions is a large underground-enabled map of 108 by 108 tiles, built for the Shadow of Death version of Heroes of Might and Magic III and set at Expert difficulty. Six players share the field, but only one can be human, with the other five Blue, Tan, Green, Orange and Purple controlled by the computer. There are no teams. Blue plays Inferno, Tan Conflux, Green Stronghold, Orange Fortress and Purple Dungeon, while Red starts with a random faction. Victory requires defeating one specific hero, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The landscape is mostly rock, with water, swamp and rough ground making up much of the rest. The description speaks of a world left to evolve after its gods departed. The map holds 14 towns, 13 placed heroes, 47 mines, 17 creature banks and four monoliths or portals, plus several artifacts and wandering monster groups.
