Der Ringkrieg (KdM 0707 Edit) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Der Ringkrieg is an extra-large underground map of 144 by 144 tiles for Shadow of Death, rated Hard and built around the idea of Sauron's final invasion of the realms of Elves and Men. Five players are set up, but only one can be human, and the other four colors are computer-controlled; the players form two teams. Red plays Castle and Rampart, while Blue fields Inferno, Tan Fortress, Green Stronghold and Purple Tower. Terrain is mostly rock and grass, with water covering about eleven percent. Ten towns, 49 mines, 125 random artifacts and a Grail are spread across the map, which also holds six Legion armor pieces, Armageddon's Blade, and wandering stacks of trolls, wraiths and dragons. Victory requires building a Grail structure, and the loss condition is the fall of one specific town.
