Vindalia — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Vindalia is an extra large underground-enabled map of 144 by 144 tiles, rated Hard, for eight players with all eight seats open to humans and two teams. The author frames it as a struggle between a northern alliance of good factions and an evil southern side, with players free to side with the angelic powers or with the dark forces. Each colour starts with a different town type, covering Dungeon, Fortress, Necropolis, Inferno, Castle, Tower, Stronghold and Rampart. Victory comes from defeating all enemies, and a player is eliminated when they lose all towns and heroes. Water covers about 27 percent of the terrain, with grass, rock and subterranean ground making up most of the rest. The map holds 42 towns, 25 heroes, and a Grail, along with many mines, seer huts, creature banks and monoliths. Wandering Black Dragons, Archangels and Diamond Golems are among the more notable stacks.
