Great Swamp (WL 2_1) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Great Swamp is an extra large underground map for Shadow of Death, measuring 144 by 144, and it is set to Impossible difficulty. Eight players take part, but only one can be human, and the other seven are computer-controlled with no teams. The story follows a knight who sets out to visit a neighbor in the swamp and instead ends up rescuing him from captivity after a long war, bringing in experienced fighters for help. The eight players field Inferno, Castle, Conflux, Rampart, Fortress, Necropolis, Stronghold, and Dungeon. Terrain is mostly rock and swamp, with some water and sand. Notable features include 45 towns, the Grail, 26 monoliths and portals, and 111 mines, plus wandering Hydras, Gorgons, and Liches. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and the player loses if a specific hero is lost.
