The battle in the cold — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
This medium-sized underground map, 72 by 72 tiles, pits one human player against one computer opponent in Shadow of Death on Normal difficulty. The human side plays Castle, the computer plays Tower, and there are no teams. The terrain is mostly snow and rock, with some subterranean ground. The story centers on a deranged wizard from the frozen peaks who has turned against the empire. The player must defend three towns and seize a tower while also watching out for dwarves, who oppose both sides. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and defeat comes if a specific hero is lost. The map holds the Grail, fourteen artifacts, 25 mines, and a seer hut, and heroes are capped at level 15.
