Экскалибр — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Excalibur is a medium Shadow of Death map measuring 72 by 72 tiles, with an underground level and Normal difficulty. According to the author's description, evil forces have seized Avalon's castle to find a mighty sword that Merlin concealed, and the player must risk freeing Avalon and recovering that blade. Five players take part: four slots for humans and one computer-only Teal player who starts with a Castle. There are no teams, and the other factions are random. Victory requires transporting a specific artifact, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers about 37 percent of the terrain and water about 11 percent. Notable finds include four roaming Faerie Dragon stacks, dwellings holding Medusas, Nagas, and Cyclops, and artifacts such as the four magic tomes.
