The Great War Beyond — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Great War Beyond is an extra large Shadow of Death map measuring 144 by 144, with an underground level and a Hard rating. Eight players can all be human, and no teams are set, so each player fights alone with a random faction. Most of the terrain is grass and rock, with some subterranean ground and about 5 percent water. The author's description pictures eight lords on one island, unable to see one another because the land is guarded everywhere, so each must build an army before the inevitable clash. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. Notable features include twenty towns, three Titan stacks and three Giant stacks roaming the land, Armageddon's Blade among the placed artifacts, and 131 mines.
