Smoke on Water; Halbardon II — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Smoke on Water; Halbardon II is a medium underground map for Shadow of Death, set on a 72 by 72 grid. Its author's description frames it as a story of reuniting the great cities and heroes after a plague, then turning them against the one whose reckless actions caused it. The map supports four players, with two seats open to humans and two left to the computer, and no teams are defined. Every player fields a Rampart army. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. The terrain is largely rock, water, subterranean ground, and snow, with water covering about a quarter of the map. Thirteen towns and twelve heroes are placed, along with 55 mines, the Grail, and a set of named artifacts. Wandering monsters include many Centaur Captains and Wood Elves, and dwellings hold Unicorns, Green Dragons, and Azure Dragons.
