The Death of the Necromancer — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Death of the Necromancer is a medium underground map for Shadow of Death, measuring 72 by 72. You play Arisilde, a sorcerer with no damage spells, who sets out to stop a necromancer sacrificing innocents to grow his power, with a Titan at your side. Three players are placed, but only one can be human. The Tower player is human, while the Necropolis and Stronghold players are computer-controlled. There are no teams. Victory requires transporting a specific artifact, and defeat comes if a specific hero is lost. Rock covers about 44 percent of the map, water 15 percent, with the rest dirt and snow. Notable finds include the Armageddon's Blade and the Ring of the Wayfarer, and wandering stacks such as a Stone Golem and an Arch Mage. Difficulty is set to normal.
