Nine Riddles — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Nine Riddles is a small underground map measuring 36 by 36 tiles, rated Impossible and built for four players, with only one human seat available. The other three colours, Blue, Tan and Teal, are computer-controlled. There are no teams. Red plays Castle, Blue combines Inferno and Necropolis, Tan fields Dungeon, and Teal plays Necropolis. Victory requires defeating one specific hero, while the game is lost if the time limit runs out after two days. Rock covers most of the terrain, with smaller patches of rough ground, grass and subterranean land, and a little water. The map holds 19 heroes, seven quest guards, four seer huts, and 21 monoliths and portals. Wandering Champions and Halberdiers are the most common monsters, and the Grail is placed on the map alongside a number of powerful artifacts, including Armageddon's Blade and the Sword of Hellfire.
