+ The Last Crusade + — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Last Crusade is an Extra Large, 144 by 144 map for Shadow of Death with an underground level, rated Impossible. It supports eight players, four of them human, and the other four colors are computer-only. There are no fixed teams. The factions are Castle, Tower, Necropolis, Rampart, Inferno, Stronghold, Dungeon, and a Fortress and Conflux pairing for the Pink player. Rock covers about 37 percent of the terrain and water about 26 percent. The goal is to build a Grail structure, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. The map has 39 towns, 57 mines, 21 seer huts, and the Grail itself, along with many guarded sites and roaming monsters, including Gog, Devil, and Horned Demon stacks. The author's description speaks of a search for a sacred temple and a fight against a demon army.
