* Only the Strong * — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Only the Strong is a medium two-player map of 72 by 72 tiles, set on the surface with no underground level. Its author's description frames it as a contest between two kingdoms, where only one can end up ruling the world, so the match is a test of which side is stronger. Each player controls a hero-led start with every faction from the base list available, and the difficulty is rated Hard. Both players are human, with no computer-only colors and no teams. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Grass covers most of the land, with dirt, lava, and water filling the rest. The map holds four towns, 14 mines, 80 random monster stacks, and four creature banks, along with two Inexhaustible Carts placed as artifacts, Sharpshooter dwellings, and four seer huts.
