Seven Lakes v1.1 — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Seven Lakes v1.1 is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, played at Normal difficulty on the surface with no underground level. It holds six players, with four seats open to humans and Orange and Purple reserved for the computer. There are no fixed teams, and victory comes from defeating every enemy, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Grass, dirt, and sand cover most of the land, with water making up about an eighth of it. Red, Blue, Tan, and Green pick random factions, Orange plays Stronghold, and Purple plays Inferno and Necropolis. Thirty-one towns, sixteen heroes, and eighty-nine mines are spread across the map, and the Grail is present. Wandering Rogues, Black Dragons, Gold Dragons and Arch Devils roam the land, and the author warns that the map's events are quite harsh.
