Successors of the North — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Successors of the North is an extra large, expert-rated map with a large underground level, set mostly in rock and snow. Three players are placed, but only one can be human; the other two, Blue (Rampart) and Pink (Tower), are computer-controlled, while Teal's faction is random. There are no teams. The victory goal is to transport a specific artifact, the Crown of Dragontooth, which the author's description frames as the reward for defeating the northern dragons. Losing a specific hero ends the game. The map holds twelve towns, twenty-nine mines, and a range of wandering monsters, with dragons and hell hounds among the most common. Players will also find nine creature banks, five seer huts, and two monoliths and portals, along with many placed artifacts, including dragon-themed pieces.
