Grim Reaper (Heroes II map) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Grim Reaper is an extra large surface map of 144 by 144 tiles, rated Hard, adapted from an original Heroes II map with some changes for Heroes III. In it, Death attempts to reshape the world to suit his own tastes. Six players can take part, with up to five human players, since Red is computer-controlled. There are no teams. Red plays Necropolis, Blue Rampart, Tan Stronghold, Green Tower, Orange Castle, and Purple Dungeon. Victory requires defeating one specific hero, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Dirt covers much of the land, with lava, grass, and snow, and water makes up about six percent. The Grail is placed on the map, along with thirteen towns, seventy-six mines, and ten monoliths and portals.
