Wind in the desert — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Wind in the Desert is a large two-player map for Shadow of Death, measuring 108 by 108 and including an underground level. It is set at normal difficulty and allows one human player, with the second side controlled by the computer. There are no teams. Both sides field Stronghold and Conflux, and the goal is to eliminate every enemy, while a player loses if a specific hero falls. Rock and rough ground cover most of the land, with sand and water making up the rest. Twelve towns, twenty-three mines and four creature banks are spread across the map, alongside wandering Mummies, Rocs and Rogues. Among the placed artifacts are several Legion armor pieces, the Rib Cage and the Sandals of the Saint.
