The Operational Hazard — SoD

The Operational Hazard is a large Shadow of Death map measuring 108 by 108, with an underground level and a hard difficulty setting. Six players share the map, with two seats open to humans and four held by computer players in Green, Orange, Purple and Pink. The players form four teams, and the factions in play include Rampart, Necropolis, Fortress, Dungeon, Tower and Stronghold. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Water covers about a quarter of the map, with large areas of subterranean, rough and swamp ground. Expect 25 towns, 60 mines, 18 creature banks, eight monoliths and portals, and 207 random monster stacks, along with a Faerie Dragon wandering the map. Heroes are capped at level 12.
