Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
This Hard map for Shadow of Death, medium-sized at 72 by 72 tiles with an underground level, is inspired by a Robert E. Howard novel. The hero Isau Cairn must rescue his beloved Althea from a winged people before she and other captives are sacrificed, and he has to unite feuding barbarian clans to do it. Eight players start on the map, with only one human seat and seven computer-controlled colors, arranged in seven teams. Factions include Stronghold, Dungeon, Tower, Fortress, Inferno, and Rampart. Victory requires acquiring a specific artifact, and a player loses if a specific hero is defeated. Notable features include the Grail, 31 mines, four monoliths and portals, and four stacks of Red Dragons roaming the terrain, which is mostly rock and grass.
