Narn Ascention — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Narn Ascention is a large underground map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, measuring 108 by 108 with one underground level. It is built for four players, three of whom can be human, with the fourth color, Purple, held by the computer and fixed to the Necropolis. The other three colors begin with random factions, and no teams are set. Victory requires acquiring one specific artifact, and a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. Rock, water, swamp and snow cover most of the terrain. Wandering monsters include many Wraiths and Wights, and the map holds 32 towns, 30 mines, 31 seer huts and 60 monoliths and portals, along with several named artifacts such as the Speculum and the Stoic Watchman.
