Smell of War — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Smell of War is an extra large underground map measuring 144 by 144 tiles, built for Shadow of Death and intended for eight players, all of whom can be human. Each player starts with a random faction, there are no teams, and the goal is to defeat every enemy, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The map is rated Expert, with hero level capped at 45. Roughly a tenth of the surface is water, and the land is mostly grass, rock, snow, and swamp. The map holds 22 towns and 29 heroes, along with 50 mines, 48 seer huts, 49 creature banks, and 27 monoliths and portals. Notable finds include a number of artifacts such as the Crown of the Supreme Magi and Boots of Speed, plus a hidden Armageddon's Blade, and wandering monsters include Azure Dragons and Enchanters.
