Our map — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
This Heroes III map sets eight factions against each other on an extra large 144 by 144 board with an underground level. Rock covers about 45 percent of the terrain and water about a third. Up to seven humans can play, and the Tan seat is controlled by the computer only. No teams are set, and the difficulty is Impossible. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player falls once every town and hero is lost. The description casts it as a struggle over the surface and below it, where the first to destroy rivals may hold power, though perhaps not for long. The map holds 27 towns, four starting heroes, 75 mines, and 11 creature banks, with wandering dragons and elementals roaming the land and fifteen named artifacts placed.
