Isles of Illusion — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Isles of Illusion is an Extra Large map of 144 by 144 tiles with an underground level, rated Hard for eight players. Seven slots are open to human players, and the Tan color is left to the computer. Water covers about a third of the map, with rock, grass, and snow making up most of the rest. Each player starts with a set town type, from Tower and Castle to Necropolis and Inferno, while Tan receives a random faction. There are no teams. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. The map contains 14 towns, 46 heroes, the Grail, 84 mines, and 44 monoliths and portals. Fire Elementals are the most common wandering monsters, and dragons guard several dwellings. The description suggests the islands hold great power, or perhaps only an illusion, in a chaotic world of strange rules and familiar creatures.

Author's description

Legends say that great power exists on the islands of air or could it be just a legendary illusion! This land is rife with strange laws, strange happenings, and even stranger creatures- some you may even know.. This chaotic world could only be in the world of H3trio;-)
