Das Weltreich II — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Das Weltreich II is a single-player-oriented map for Shadow of Death, set on an extra large 144 by 144 grid with an underground level. The author describes the story of Maximus, a Roman warrior who is exiled, survives a shipwreck, and wakes on a beach with no memory of what happened, determined to return home. The map holds eight computer-controlled colors and allows only one human player, with no teams. The factions include Castle, Rampart, Stronghold, Tower, Conflux, Necropolis, Inferno, Dungeon and Fortress. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. Water covers about a third of the land, and the map is dotted with 39 towns, 70 mines, 44 creature banks and the Grail, along with many artifacts and wandering monster stacks.
