The Darkside(SOD) — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Darkside is a medium two-player map of 72 by 72 tiles for Shadow of Death, with an underground level included. Two human players can take part, each starting with a random faction, and the map has no teams and no computer-only colors. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. The terrain is mostly rock and lava, with dirt and water making up the rest, and the scene reflects the author's description of volcanic eruptions tearing the land apart. Expect four towns, 18 mines, six creature banks, and six monoliths and portals. Among the notable objects are a Gold Golem wandering the map, an Endless Bag of Gold, and dwellings holding Beholders, Orcs, and Earth Elementals. The map also holds 74 random monster stacks and 20 random artifacts.
