Gremlins — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Gremlins map is a medium 72x72 scenario for three players, each playing as a Tower, with no teams and no computer-only colors. It has an underground level and is mostly water, with about 69 percent sea, 26 percent snow and 5 percent rock. Victory comes from capturing a specific town, which holds a Skyship, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map is rated Expert. Its ten towns are joined by ten mines, five seer huts, four creature banks and four monoliths or portals, while the Grail is placed on the map. Gremlin dwellings, an Ice Elemental and a Naga Queen roam among the seven random monster stacks, and twenty-one random artifacts are scattered about. Two timed events add pressure.

Gremlins here, Gremlins there, Gremlins everywhere. But they are hiding great treasures in the Underground and a town with a Skyship. The first who gets there is going to rule this part of the world.
