Free for All(SOD) — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Free for All is a large Shadow of Death map for eight players, each controlling one of the eight standard factions: Castle, Rampart, Tower, Stronghold, Fortress, Necropolis, Inferno and Dungeon. The map covers a 108 by 108 area with an underground level, and every seat can be held by a human player, with no computer-only colors and no teams. Terrain is mostly rock, with grass, subterranean, and swamp ground making up most of the rest, plus a small share of water. The map holds 20 towns, 150 random monster stacks, 75 mines, seven creature banks and 48 randomly placed artifacts, along with dwellings for a wide range of creatures. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The author suggests that players will need to form temporary alliances before they can stand alone.

Author's description

It's you vs. your seven neighbors in this massive free-for-all, but you'll need to convince others to help you, at least until you're strong enough to stand on your own. Perfect for a backstabbing multiplayer game!
