Scouts & Thiefs (SoD) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Scouts & Thiefs is an extra large Shadow of Death map measuring 144 by 144 tiles, with an underground level alongside the surface. Six players can take part, all of them human-capable, with no teams and no computer-only colors. Each player starts with a random faction, and the difficulty is set to Impossible. Victory comes from flagging all mines, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone. The map is mostly rock, with water covering about a fifth of its surface and smaller areas of dirt and grass. Fourteen towns and seven starting heroes are placed across it, and the landscape holds 71 mines, 43 creature banks, five seer huts, and 77 random artifacts. Notable features include an Inexhaustible Cart of Lumber, a wandering Azure Dragon, and two wandering Sharpshooter stacks. The author gave no description beyond the title.
