Sea World (v1.2) — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Sea World is a small 36 by 36 underground map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, rated easy, with 65 percent of its tiles covered by water and the rest mostly rock. One human player faces one computer-controlled opponent, with no teams. The human side fields Conflux and the computer side fields Necropolis. The story, drawn from the author's note, follows a flood that has swallowed most of a land, leaving only mountain peaks above the sea, and a heroine who survived through her skill with boats and water. Victory requires transporting a specific artifact, while losing all towns and heroes ends the game. Waterborne threats include Water Elementals and Ice Elementals, and a Sea Captain's Hat is placed on the map.
