Isles of Illusion (Allies) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Isles of Illusion (Allies) is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map for Shadow of Death with an underground level. The author describes a chaotic world of floating islands, strange laws and creatures, and a playful nod to the H3trio series. Water covers about a third of the land, with rock, grass and snow making up most of the rest. Eight players share the map, with up to seven controlled by humans and one computer-only color, Tan. Four teams are set, and the difficulty is rated Hard. Factions include Tower, Castle, Dungeon, Inferno, Necropolis, Fortress and Rampart, with Tan receiving a random town. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds 14 towns, 45 heroes, 84 mines, 13 creature banks and 44 monoliths and portals, along with many roaming Fire Elementals and dragons.
