Deliverance of Freedom — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Deliverance of Freedom is an extra large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles for Shadow of Death, set for three players with two human seats and one computer-only Orange side. Red and Blue both play Castle, while Orange commands Rampart and Dungeon forces, and no teams are defined. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses once every town and hero is gone. The description frames the story as the Below turning against the Above, with a new lord rising toward rule over the whole land. Subterranean ground covers about 29 percent of the map and water about 26 percent. Notable features include 39 towns, 12 placed heroes, 123 mines, 85 creature banks, and the Grail, along with a long list of artifacts scattered across the map.
