VGT-2006 - Stormbringer — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Stormbringer is an extra large underground map for Heroes of Might and Magic III's Shadow of Death version, set on a 144 by 144 board at expert difficulty. The premise follows a royal wizard's ambitious plan to forge a legendary sword, and the player searches for the blade Stormbringer as its first component. Six players can take part, up to two of them human, while Red, Green, Orange and Teal are computer controlled. There are no teams, and every player may choose from all eight factions. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses upon losing all towns and heroes. Subterranean ground covers most of the map, with water making up about a fifth. The map holds 21 towns, 64 mines and the Grail, along with wandering Minotaur Kings, Beholders and Medusas, and placed artifacts such as the Crown of Dragontooth.
