Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Hero World is an Extra Large, 144 by 144 map for Shadow of Death, with an underground level.

Eight players can compete, all of them able to be human, with no teams and random factions for every color. Rock covers 47 percent of the terrain, water 34 percent, and grass 6 percent. The map holds 17 towns and 11 starting heroes, and the Grail is placed on it. Wandering Azure Dragons and Armageddon's Blade are among the notable finds.
