The forgotten threat — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Forgotten Threat is an extra large underground map for Shadow of Death, measuring 144 by 144 tiles and played across both surface and underground levels. It is rated hard and supports five players, though only one can be human, with the other four controlled by the computer. Teams are split into four groupings. Red and Purple play Castle, Blue plays Tower, and Tan and Green receive random factions. The win condition is to defeat all enemies, and the game is lost if a specific hero falls. The map is dominated by rock and grass, with dirt and snow covering smaller areas. Wandering monsters are plentiful, including several Wyvern Monarchs, Firebirds, and Gold Dragons, and the map holds the Grail, along with a number of placed artifacts such as the Armor of Wonder and the Ogre's Club of Havoc.
