The Power of Magic — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Power of Magic is an extra large 144 by 144 map with an underground level, rated for expert play. Five players compete, but only one can be human; the other four colors (Blue, Tan, Green and Orange) are computer-controlled. Players are split into two teams, and the factions on the field are Tower for Red, Conflux for Blue, Rampart for Tan, Castle for Green and Fortress for Orange. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. Rock covers about a third of the land, with grass, subterranean ground and water making up much of the rest. The map holds 33 towns, 15 placed heroes, 91 mines, 14 seer huts and 6 creature banks, along with a number of placed artifacts and the Grail. Wandering elementals and random monster stacks are scattered across the terrain.
