Underground River — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
The Underground River is a large, 108 by 108 map for Shadow of Death that is played on the underground level. It supports six players, with up to four human players and two computer-only colors, Purple and Pink, and there are no fixed teams. Red, Blue, Tan, and Green can each choose from nine factions, Purple can choose from eight (Necropolis is excluded), and Pink is limited to Stronghold. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player loses once all their towns and heroes are gone. Terrain is mostly swamp, water, and rock, with some subterranean ground, and about a fifth of the map is water. Players will find 16 towns, 48 mines, 52 creature banks, and the Grail, along with a range of wandering monsters such as Crystal Dragons and Wyvern Monarchs. The map is set at Normal difficulty.
