Shadow of the Dragon — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Shadow of the Dragon is a large underground map of 108 by 108 tiles, played on the Shadow of Death version of the game at Expert difficulty. Seven players share the field, with six computer-controlled colors (Red, Blue, Tan, Green, Orange, Purple) and one Conflux player, Pink, the only seat a human can take. The players form six teams. The factions in play are Inferno, Tower, Stronghold, Fortress, Castle and Conflux. Victory comes from capturing one specific town, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock and grass, with patches of snow, lava and a little water. The map holds sixteen towns, two starting heroes, and wandering monsters ranging from Gold Dragons and Arch Devils to Efreet Sultans. Artifacts such as the Sword of Judgement and the Vial of Dragon Blood are placed around the map, along with the Grail.
