Time Laps — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Time Laps is a large underground map for Heroes of Might and Magic III: Shadow of Death, measuring 108 by 108 tiles and played across both surface and underground levels. It supports seven players, with five slots open to human players and two reserved for the computer, colored Purple and Pink. No teams are set up, so every player fights alone. The seven factions are Fortress, Castle, Inferno, Stronghold, Tower, Necropolis and Conflux, one per color. Roughly a third of the map is water, with rock and subterranean ground making up most of the rest. The map is rated Expert. Victory requires defeating a specific hero, while the game is lost if the timer runs out after 196 days. Seventeen towns, three starting heroes, sixty-two mines, and a range of guarded artifacts and creature dwellings are spread across the terrain.
