Desert Warfare — SoD

Desert Warfare is a medium 72 by 72 map for Shadow of Death, played on the surface with no underground level. It is set for two players, but only one can be human, so the second side is run by the computer in the Teal colors. There are no teams. The human player commands the Tower faction in Blue, while the computer controls a Stronghold army in Teal. Water covers about 54 percent of the map, with sand and grass making up the rest. The story centers on a queen who has stolen a prized blade and hides behind a wide desert. Victory requires defeating a specific hero, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Notable features include a number of wandering Titans, Cyclops Kings and Ogre Mages, plus placed artifacts such as the Sword of Hellfire and several shields.
