North vrs South (sod) — SoD

North vrs South is a two-player Shadow of Death map of medium size, 72 by 72 tiles, with an underground level. The author describes it as an evenly matched contest between a northern and a southern kingdom. Both players are human, there are no teams, and Red and Blue each start with a random faction. Rock covers about half the terrain, grass about 41 percent, and water 6 percent. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map holds six towns, 82 random monster stacks, 26 mines, 19 seer huts, 8 creature banks, and four monoliths or portals. Placed artifacts include Angel Wings, the Endless Sack of Gold, and a Speculum, alongside 36 random artifacts. Difficulty is set to normal.
