The Duncan Isthmus — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Duncan Isthmus is a small 36 by 36 map for Shadow of Death with an underground level, rated for expert players. It supports three players, two of them human, with the third color run by the computer, and there are no teams. Two players start with random factions, while the computer-controlled player plays as Tower. Winning requires acquiring one specific artifact, and the game is lost if time runs out after 112 days. Subterranean terrain covers about a third of the map, with rock, snow and water making up most of the rest. Wandering monsters include Naga, Champions, Iron Golems and Thunderbirds, along with a Grail, seven named artifacts, seventeen mines, and sixteen monoliths and portals.
