Volcano of Evil — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Volcano of Evil is an extra large underground map for Shadow of Death, covering a 144 by 144 field at Normal difficulty. The author's note describes a warrior from a thousand years ago who was never beaten and died without finding a worthy rival. Whoever defeats his spirit, which has not yet ascended, becomes the most powerful figure in the land and receives a generous reward. Seven colors are placed, with six open to human players and Tan reserved for the computer. There are no teams. Red plays Castle, Tan Conflux, Green Inferno, Orange Necropolis, Teal Tower, and Pink Dungeon, while Blue is random. Victory requires capturing a specific town, and a player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Water covers about 28 percent of the land. The map includes the Grail, 38 towns, 136 mines, and wandering Azure Dragon stacks.
