Game in draughts. — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Game in draughts is an Extra Large 144x144 map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, set entirely above ground on a terrain split evenly between snow and rock, with no water. It supports four players, with two human seats and two computer-controlled colors, Tan and Green, arranged into three teams. Every player fields the Inferno faction. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player is eliminated once they lose all their towns and heroes. The map uses normal difficulty and caps hero level at 30. Across the battlefield lie twelve towns, four starting heroes, and a large number of wandering monsters, including many random stacks. Dwellings offer Giants, Hell Hounds, Demons, Firebirds and other creatures, and the Grail is placed somewhere on the map. Named artifacts include the Endless Bag of Gold, Equestrian's Gloves and the Inexhaustible Cart of Lumber, alongside ten random artifacts.
