Crystal Shortage 1.2 — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
This medium underground map, built for Shadow of Death on a 72 by 72 grid, pits three players against each other with no teams. Only one seat can be human, and Red and Teal are computer-only. Inferno, Rampart and Stronghold fill the three sides, and the difficulty is set to Impossible. The story follows a queen who lands near a gnome mining village after its miners were slain and its crystal mines seized. Victory requires flagging every mine, and the game is lost if the 168-day limit expires. Rock, lava, dirt and water cover most of the terrain. The map holds nine towns, eighteen mines, fifteen creature banks, and several Crystal Dragon stacks.
