Vanadias Ruler SOD edit allies — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Vanadias Ruler is an Extra Large, 144 by 144 Shadow of Death map with an underground level, played at Impossible difficulty. Eight players, all human-capable, split into four teams, each starting with one of the eight standard factions from Inferno to Fortress. Victory requires acquiring a specific artifact, and a player is defeated when they lose all towns and heroes. The land is about a tenth water, with grass, subterranean, dirt and lava making up most of the rest. The map holds 44 towns, 23 heroes at the start, 133 mines and 138 monoliths and portals, plus three seer huts, six quest guards, and 22 creature banks. Wandering monsters include skeleton warriors, trolls, behemoths and crystal dragons, and a number of artifacts are placed around the map by name.

Author's description

For 300 years, Vanadias Lands have been ruled monsters and there is only one thing to cure the infected land: the spellbinder's hat. It was stolen from some very even souls and you got to get it back.
