Lord Dracus1 — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Lord Dracus1 is a large underground map of 108 by 108 tiles, built for the Shadow of Death version of Heroes of Might and Magic III and rated at Impossible difficulty. Water covers well over half of the surface, with lava, grass and dirt making up most of the rest. Four colors are placed, but only one can be played by a human, and the other three are computer-controlled, with two teams in the setup. The factions include Castle, Inferno, Necropolis, Conflux, Dungeon, Tower and Fortress. The goal is to carry a specific artifact, the Sword of Hellfire, to a destination, and the game is lost if a particular hero falls. The map holds 17 towns, 22 heroes, 11 mines, 10 monoliths and portals, and the Grail, along with roaming dragons, devils and wolves.
