Highway to Hell — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Highway to Hell is an extra large underground map for Shadow of Death, sized 144 by 144, and it plays at the Impossible difficulty setting. Four players take part, with three slots open to humans and Green reserved for the computer, and the players form two teams. The factions are Castle for Red, Rampart for Blue, Tower for Tan, and Inferno for Green. Rock, water, subterranean ground, and snow make up most of the terrain, with water covering about 29 percent of the land. The map is built around three young heroes who must defeat a powerful villain while each also rescues a captured wife. A victory requires defeating one specific hero, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds eight towns and a large population of wandering monsters, including many peasant and Azure Dragon stacks, along with an Orb of Silt and a Grail.
