Fulcrum(SOD) — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Fulcrum is a medium Shadow of Death map measuring 72 by 72 and including an underground level. It is built for four players, all of whom can be human, arranged into two teams, with each player's faction assigned at random. The author describes dragons guarding their hoards and standing between you and a long-standing enemy, now weakened so that the treasure can be claimed. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses once all towns and heroes are gone. Terrain is split roughly among subterranean ground, water, and grass. The map holds eight towns, two Gold Dragons among its wandering monsters, and elemental guardians of each element. Scattered across it are 133 random monster stacks, 24 random artifacts, 36 mines, 20 creature banks, and 10 monoliths and portals.

Author's description

For ages, dragons have jealously stood guard over their treasure (and prevented you from reaching your long-standing enemy). Now, however, the dragon's power is waning so you have a chance to take their hoard and your vengeance! -made by Dazed and thanks to my playtesters
