Rise of the Phoenix — SoD

Rise of the Phoenix is a large underground map measuring 108 by 108, built for four players, all of whom can be human, with no teams and random factions for each color. The author's description frames it around the First Phoenix returning and interrupting a long war between four lords, with defeating that creature offering honor and an end to the fighting. Victory requires defeating a specific monster, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The land is mostly rock and dirt, with patches of snow and lava and very little water. Scattered across it are eight towns, one starting hero, and wandering monsters including several Crystal Dragon stacks and a Phoenix. Dwellings house creatures such as Azure Dragons and Firebirds, and the map holds 53 random artifacts, 36 mines and 19 creature banks.
