* Supreme Ruler * — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Supreme Ruler is a two-player Shadow of Death map on a medium 72 by 72 board with an underground level, rated expert. Both kingdoms hold their own side of the map, with monsters guarding the exits from their territory, and the goal is to decide a supreme ruler. Both seats are human, there are no teams, and each player may pick any of eight factions: Castle, Rampart, Tower, Inferno, Necropolis, Dungeon, Stronghold or Fortress. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player falls by losing every town and hero. Rock dominates the terrain. Four towns and 78 random monster stacks, including wandering Dread Knights, stand in the way, with 26 mines and twelve monoliths or portals to find.
