Realms Collide — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Realms Collide is an extra large Shadow of Death map measuring 144 by 144 tiles, with an underground level and an Expert difficulty rating. Eight players can all be human, each controlling one of the eight factions, with the Pink player holding both Inferno and Necropolis. The players form four teams. According to the author, eight realms with their own agendas eventually clash in war. Rock covers about a third of the terrain and water about a quarter, with smaller areas of swamp and grass. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player is eliminated after losing every town and hero. The map contains 22 towns, 27 mines, and notable artifacts such as Armageddon's Blade, the Admiral's Hat, and a Wizard's Well.

Author's description

8 Realms are on the rise, from the Incas of the deep jungle to the Pirates of the Great Sea, each one with its own agenda. Sooner or later they have to meet, and war will decide who falls and who is victorious. So be prepared!
