Epica — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Epica is an extra large 144 by 144 map with an underground level, built for eight players, of whom only one can be human. The other seven are computer-controlled, and the players form two teams. The starting factions include Castle, Rampart, Stronghold, Tower, Dungeon, Fortress, Inferno and Necropolis, with Purple and Pink each starting with two. The difficulty is Impossible. The goal is to unite the lands, recover a missing brother and a suit of armour, and defeat a cult and its dragon lord. Victory requires eliminating every enemy, and the game is lost if K'Takou falls. Rock, water, grass and snow form the main terrain. Notable features include nine wandering Thunderbird stacks, the Grail, and placed artifacts such as the Arms of Legion.
