The Arena - The Gone Continent — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Arena - The Gone Continent is an Extra Large underground map for Shadow of Death, rated Impossible, built for eight players with only one human seat. The author describes it as the fourth map in The Arena series, picking up directly after the story of the third. Each of the eight colors plays a different faction: Castle, Rampart, Inferno, Tower, Necropolis, Dungeon, Stronghold, and Fortress. There are no teams. Victory and defeat both hinge on a specific hero. Water covers about 40 percent of the land, with grass and sand making up most of the rest. The map holds 42 towns, 122 mines, and six monoliths and portals. Wandering Elemental stacks roam the waters, and dragons and other powerful creatures guard dwellings across the map.
