From eight to one — SoD

From Eight to One is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map for Shadow of Death, played at Normal difficulty. Up to eight players can take part, all of them human, with no teams and a random faction for each side. The author's note suggests that only one of the eight will survive. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player is eliminated after losing every town and hero. Water covers most of the map, with sand, grass and swamp making up much of the rest. Scattered across the land are 36 monoliths and portals, 28 mines, 8 creature banks and 5 seer huts, along with 164 random monster stacks, a Gremlin and a Demon on the move, and artifacts including the Ring of Life and the Ring of Conjuring. A timed event also shapes the game.
