Les prémices de l'Apocalypse — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Beginnings of the Apocalypse is an Expert-level Extra Large map for Shadow of Death, covering 144 by 144 tiles with an underground level. The author's aim is to keep a captive from escaping, and warns that it is difficult and unsuitable for beginners. Eight player colors are present, but only one seat can be taken by a human, and the eight play in four teams. Nine factions appear across the players, including Castle, Tower, Inferno, Necropolis and Conflux. Victory requires defeating a specific hero, and losing a specific hero ends the game. Water covers about a quarter of the terrain. The map holds 48 towns, 47 monoliths and portals, 75 mines, and the Grail, with wandering Titans, Angels and Devils roaming the land.
