Gandalf's Challenge — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Gandalf's Challenge is a small single-player map measuring 36 by 36 tiles, played on the surface at Normal difficulty with the Fortress faction for the lone human player, who has no allies or rivals on a team. The map is mostly water, roughly three quarters of its area, with the rest given over to grass. The hero is capped at level one. Wandering monsters are scattered across the land, including Pikemen, Centaurs, Gremlins, Imps, Skeletons, Troglodytes, Goblins and Gnolls, and the creature dwellings hold Halflings. Quest guards, twenty-one monoliths and portals, and two timed events add further obstacles. Victory comes from flagging every creature dwelling, and the game is lost if all towns and heroes are gone.
