The Roman — SoD

The Roman is an extra large underground map of 144 by 144, set in the Shadow of Death version at Impossible difficulty. Eight players can all be human, each starting with a random faction and no teams. Terrain is mostly rock and grass, with some subterranean and swamp areas and a sliver of water. The map holds 48 towns, 2808 wandering monster stacks, 16 monoliths and portals, and the Grail. Notable finds include the Arms of Legion, the Ring of Infinite Gems, and the Endless Sack of Gold, alongside 624 random artifacts. Victory requires defeating all enemies, while the game is lost if the 336-day limit expires. The author calls it a hard, balanced challenge that must be won before the year ends.
