Dragon River — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Dragon River is a large Heroes of Might and Magic III map sized 108 by 108 on the surface level, played in Shadow of Death with Normal difficulty. Five colors take part, with four seats open to human players and Pink reserved for the computer. There are no teams. The factions are Dungeon for Red, Stronghold for Blue, Castle for Tan, Necropolis for Green, and Conflux for Pink. The author describes a journey along the river to defeat the guardian of the Dragon Father. Victory requires acquiring a specific artifact, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Grass covers most of the land, with water and snow making up the rest. Notable features include the Power of the Dragon Father artifact, a Red Dragon and a Phoenix among the wandering monsters, and two creature banks.
