The village battle — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Village Battle is a medium 72x72 Heroes of Might and Magic III map for the Shadow of Death expansion, with an underground level and an Expert difficulty rating. It is built for five players, with four human slots and one computer-only color, and it has no teams. Red plays Fortress, Blue plays Stronghold, Tan plays Inferno, Green plays Conflux, and Orange plays Dungeon. Victory requires building a Grail structure, while a player is eliminated after losing all towns and heroes. The map is mostly grass, rock, subterranean and lava terrain, with a small amount of water. Scattered across it are 14 towns, 37 mines, 11 creature banks, 8 seer huts, 20 monoliths and portals, and a Grail. Artifacts such as the Sword of Judgement and the Talisman of Mana are placed on the map, along with dwellings and many random monster stacks.
