Dragonlord (Fair-Play) — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Dragonlord (Fair-Play) is a large Shadow of Death map of 108 by 108 tiles with an underground level, built for a single player who wants a resource-rich campaign of conquest. The author describes it as a toned-down version of the original Dragonlord, still challenging but less punishing, with the dragon now able to leave its lair. The map is rated Expert and supports five colours, four of them playable by humans, while Orange is computer-only. Players are not grouped into teams. Red plays Conflux, Blue Necropolis, Tan Inferno, Green Stronghold and Orange Dungeon. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Terrain is mostly rock, grass and dirt, with some water and subterranean ground. The map holds 27 towns, along with 65 mines, 10 creature banks, 4 seer huts and an Armageddon's Blade, Boots of Speed and an Endless Sack of Gold.
