Marshland Menace — SoD

Marshland Menace is a medium 72x72 map for Shadow of Death, with an underground level and an Impossible difficulty setting. Five players are placed, four of them human at most, with the fifth color, Purple, controlled by the computer only. There are no teams. Red, Blue, Tan and Green each may choose from eight towns, while Purple plays only as a Fortress. The objective is to defeat all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The author describes rival warlords eyeing treasure hidden in northern swamps, and the terrain is mostly rock and water with plenty of swamp. Wandering monster stacks, dwellings holding Basilisks, Wyverns and Hydras, seventeen random artifacts, and fifty-three mines are scattered across the map.
