Malta — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Malta is an extra large underground-enabled map for six players, with four human seats and two computer-only colors, Green and Pink. It covers a 144 by 144 grid at Normal difficulty and has no fixed teams. The factions are Castle for Red and Green, Tower for Blue and Tan, Inferno for Orange, and Dungeon for Pink. Victory requires acquiring the Angelic Alliance, and a player is defeated once all towns and heroes are lost. Roughly 38 percent of the map is water and about 36 percent is rock, with the rest mostly grass and some subterranean ground. Players will find 22 towns, 16 starting heroes, 108 mines, and the Grail on the map, along with a number of placed artifacts. Wandering Red Dragons and Angels are especially common.

Author's description

A struggle for power in Malta has caused three factions to arise. To further complicate things, Gozo is rebelling and the Turks have landed at Marsaxlokk in southeastern Malta. The only way to unite the Maltese seems to be by acquiring the Angelic Alliance. Go out and conquer Malta, general!
