Dobry Początek — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Dobry Początek is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map for Shadow of Death, with an underground level and an Impossible difficulty rating. The map follows a hero on a quest for the Bow of the Sharpshooter. Eight players are placed, but only one can be human, and the other seven colors are computer-controlled across seven teams. Each color plays a different town: Rampart, Fortress, Stronghold, Tower, Castle, Dungeon, Necropolis, or Inferno. About half the map is water, with grass, snow, and sand covering the rest. Victory requires transporting a specific artifact, and losing a designated hero ends the game. Notable features include the Grail, an Endless Sack of Gold, 29 towns, 125 mines, and many wandering Faerie Dragons.
