The Cold Flame of My Soul — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Cold Flame of My Soul is a medium underground map of 72 by 72 tiles for Shadow of Death, rated hard. It is built around a land that is slowly freezing over, where the few remaining people are said to be trying to free a hot heart buried deep below the surface. Four players can take part, but only one can be human, with Blue, Tan and Green controlled by the computer, and there are no teams. Each player starts with a random faction. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly snow and rock, with some dirt and no water. Five towns, four starting heroes and 74 random monster stacks fill the map, along with wandering Wraiths, Genies and an Azure Dragon. Notable finds include Armageddon's Blade, a Fire Elemental dwelling, and the Grail.

Author's description

Земля Десфорест замерзает. С каждым днём тут всё холоднее, и всё меньше людей остаются тут. Большинство уже погибли либо бежали на тёплый юг... Впрочем, оставшиеся не хотят мириться с холодами. Говорят, что где-то глубоко под землёй кипит раскалённое сердце этой земли, которое нужно освободить...
