Seven Factions — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Seven Factions is a large, single-level Heroes of Might and Magic III map measuring 108 by 108, played at Normal difficulty on the Shadow of Death engine. Eight players can join, all of them human if desired, and seven teams are set up, with teal and pink sharing a team. The island of Montara is largely water, about 42 percent, with lava, dirt and snow making up most of the rest. Players draw from Inferno, Necropolis, Conflux, Tower, Dungeon, Castle, Rampart, Stronghold and Fortress, with the mix differing from colour to colour. Victory comes from eliminating every enemy, and a player is eliminated once they lose all towns and heroes. The map holds 27 towns, 45 mines, six creature banks and eight timed events, with dragons and golems among the dwelling creatures.

Author's description

For decades, there have been peace on the island of Montara. Over time, six splinter factions have left the central Heartlands, and developed settlements along the coasts of the island. Though divided, they are strong and powerful today, and the teal/pink alliance is threatened by all of them.
