Year One Thousand — SoD

Overview

Written from the facts in this map's file

Year One Thousand is a surface map of 72 by 72 tiles, meant for Shadow of Death at Expert difficulty. Three players compete, with up to two controlled by humans and the Green player handled by the computer. All three play as Tower, and no teams are set. The premise follows Tower towns that once held their own gatherings until a new year brings upheaval, forcing the two Alchemists to seek wilder ground for their bases. Water covers about 23 percent of the land, with snow and grass also prominent. Victory requires defeating all enemies, and a player loses by losing every town and hero. Highlights include the Grail, three placed artifacts, seven towns, and thirteen mines.

Author's description

The mighty Tower towns were having their own separate parties, but once Dark Click announced the new year 1000 A.S. (After the Silence), problems started. The two Alchemists must individually find a new, less civilized place to call their own bases. Made by Tim Mierzejewski (timmierz@yahoo.com)
