Great War III — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Great War III is an extra large Shadow of Death map measuring 144 by 144 tiles, with an underground level and a Hard difficulty rating. Eight kingdoms, one for each player, all play at once, and every seat can be filled by a human, with no computer-only colors and no teams. The factions in play are Conflux, Inferno, Dungeon, Castle, Stronghold, Necropolis, Tower, and Rampart. The aim is to defeat all enemies, and a player is eliminated once they lose every town and hero. The terrain is mostly rock and grass, with water covering about eleven percent of the surface. Across the map are 32 towns, 137 mines, 47 creature banks, and 160 randomly placed artifacts, along with eight monoliths and portals. Wandering threats include Arch Devils, a Black Dragon, and a Medusa Queen, and the author points players toward the treasure at the center of the island.
