Supreme Ruler(SOD) — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Supreme Ruler is a two-player Heroes III Shadow of Death map on a medium 72 by 72 board with an underground level. The author describes two kingdoms holding their own sides, with monsters guarding the borders, and a call for expansion to decide who rules supreme. Both players are assigned random factions and there are no teams, and the victory condition is to defeat all enemies, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Rock covers most of the terrain, with dirt, a little grass and some subterranean ground, and only a sliver of water. The map holds four towns, a large number of wandering monsters, including Dread Knights and Efreet Sultans, and two placed artifacts, the Bird of Perception and the Stoic Watchman. Expect mines, creature banks, monoliths and portals scattered across the board. The difficulty is set to expert.
