The Storied Heroes — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Storied Heroes is a medium 72 by 72 map for Shadow of Death, with an underground level and Impossible difficulty. Its premise is a conqueror who already controls the whole continent but still lacks power over the elements, which can supposedly be gained only by taking the Fortress of Four Worlds, a town the Elemental Lords have long fought over. Six players share the map, but only one seat can be human and the other five are computer-controlled. The players form three teams and draw on the Dungeon, Tower, Rampart, Inferno and Conflux factions. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and losing a specific hero ends the game. Grass covers most of the terrain, with snow, lava, subterranean ground and some water. Notable features include the Grail, wandering Elemental stacks and a range of artifacts.

Author's description

Всю свою долгую жизнь Вы стремились управлять миром. И теперь, когда весь Антагарик уже лежит у Ваших ног, недостает только одного: власти над стихиями. По легенде, власть над стихиями дает только обладание Крепостью Четырех Миров - легендарным городом, за который издавна ведут борьбу Лорды Стихий.
