Архипелаг — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Архипелаг is an Extra Large (144x144) underground-enabled map for Shadow of Death, set for seven players, with two human players at most and five computer-only colors (Tan, Green, Orange, Purple, Teal). Red and Blue begin with random factions, while the computer sides hold Stronghold, Castle, Necropolis, Tower and Inferno respectively, and there are no fixed teams. The premise is that a deposed king's two rival children reunite the scattered islands under one rule, though only one can claim the throne. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about 41 percent of the terrain and water about 21 percent. Among the notable features are 29 towns, 75 mines, 26 creature banks, 13 monoliths and portals, and placed artifacts such as the Bow of the Sharpshooter and the Statue of Legion.

Ты и твой брат, с которым вы постоянно враждовали, решаете объединить эти земли под своим покровительством. Но стать королём архипелага сможет только один из вас
