Dragon Lance — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Dragon Lance is a large underground-enabled map, 108 by 108 tiles, for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, set at Normal difficulty. It is built around the idea of Chaos invading Krynn, with three heroes charged with stopping him. Seven players can take part, though only three can be human, and the map is split into two teams. Four colors, Red, Purple, Teal and Pink, are reserved for computer players. The factions in play include Rampart, Castle, Tower, Inferno, Necropolis, Dungeon, Fortress and Stronghold. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about 40 percent of the terrain and water about 16 percent. Wandering monsters include Red Dragons, Ancient Behemoths and a Power Lich, and the Grail is placed on the map.
