The Unsinkable Shores — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

The Unsinkable Shores is an extra large Shadow of Death map of 144 by 144 tiles, with an underground level and Hard difficulty. All eight players can be human, with no teams. The factions are Tower, Rampart, Inferno, Stronghold, Dungeon, and Necropolis, with two Necropolis players and one random faction. Set in a cold, rocky realm settled by dragons, the only passage in and out is guarded by azure dragons who hold the key to entry. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Highlights include the Grail, the Power of the Dragon Father, many dragon dwellings, and 72 mines.
