{W}rota {C}haosu — SoD
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Wrota Chaosu, whose name suggests the Gates of Chaos, is an Expert-difficulty map for six players, with Red played by the computer only, so up to five humans can join. It is an Extra Large 144 by 144 map with an underground level. The description portrays a dark threat rising in the south that will strike without warning. Each player controls a different faction: Inferno, Tower, Stronghold, Rampart, Fortress, and Necropolis. There are no teams, and victory requires defeating all enemies. A player loses by losing all towns and heroes. Lava covers about 22 percent of the terrain, water about 17 percent, rock about 15 percent, and grass about 12 percent. The map holds 35 towns, 50 mines, and the Grail, along with placed artifacts such as the Titan's Cuirass and the Vampire's Cowl. Wandering monsters include Diamond Golems and Phoenixes.
