The Soul Market — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Soul Market is an Extra Large 144 by 144 underground map for Shadow of Death, rated Impossible. It supports eight players, but only one can be human, and the other seven are computer-controlled. There are no teams. Each player leads a different faction, from Rampart and Tower to Necropolis and Dungeon. Victory requires acquiring one specific artifact, and defeat comes from losing one specific hero. Water covers about 23 percent of the terrain, with rock, swamp and grass making up most of the rest. The map holds 34 towns, 17 placed heroes, the Grail, 141 mines, and wandering Vampire Lords and Devils. The author's note frames the goal around defeating rivals, with a Titan who holds the Tome of Air offering flight and Dimension Door as the means.
