The Gateway To Hell — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Gateway To Hell is a large underground-enabled map for Shadow of Death, measuring 108 by 108 and designed for four players, with three human slots and one computer-only colour, Red, which plays Inferno. The other factions are Rampart for Blue, Castle for Green and Dungeon for Purple, and there are no fixed teams. Victory requires defeating one particular hero, while the game is lost if the calendar runs out after 336 days. The land is roughly a third water, with grass, dirt and rock making up most of the rest. Sixteen towns, forty mines, dragon dwellings, monoliths and portals, and several placed artifacts such as the Titan's Thunder and the Wizard's Well are scattered across it. The map's own description frames it as an effort to halt a sorcerer threatening the surface.
