Ladybird — SoD

Ladybird is a small surface map of 36 by 36 tiles for Shadow of Death, played at Normal difficulty. Four players form two teams, but only one seat can be human, since Blue, Tan and Orange are computer-controlled, and every faction is random. Most of the land is grass, with sizeable patches of subterranean and rock ground and a little water. The author's note frames the game as a race against a week that slowly slips away. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and the game is lost if seven days pass. The map contains five towns, five starting heroes, six mines, seven creature banks, six monoliths or portals, four timed events, and the Grail. Dwellings hold Azure, Crystal, Faerie and Rust Dragons.
