The way we Live now. — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Way We Live Now is a large underground map for Shadow of Death, measuring 108 by 108 tiles with a second level below ground. It supports up to eight players, all of them human-capable, with no teams and random factions for every side. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player loses once every town and hero is gone. The terrain is mostly rock and subterranean ground, with water covering about an eighth of the surface and swamp making up much of the rest. The setting is a deserted realm whose lord has left, leaving neighbouring powers free to take his lands, though rivals may resist. Fifteen towns, eight starting heroes, and dwellings guarded by golems and elementals await, alongside Azure Dragons and Storm Elementals roaming the map, a Clover of Fortune, and many mines and creature banks.
