Hi Pax 
Here is your solution:
1. Open "notepad".(or "wordpad")
Press "new".
An empty page will open.
2. Press "save as".
Give the file the following name:
h3blade.exe
and save it in your Heroes directory (where the heroes.exe file is located also)
3. Press again "save as".
Give the file this name:
h3ab_bmp.lod and save it in your Data directory
Now you have to do the same procedure explained in point 3.) three more times while naming the files as follows:
h3ab_spr.lod
h3ab_ahd.snd
h3ab_ahd.vid
You have to save them in the Data directory also.
You should have created 5 files now, 1 saved in heroes directory, the other 4 in data directory.
Restart your comp, start heroes, click on "new" and then on "Random"

Do you have RoE as well?
As far as i know, you need the original RoE version also...
(Donīt remember if SoD works alone though..)
If so, i only can suggest a typo in the file names, coz you can try to ask Nebuka in the zone, i sent him those files and it worked for him....

Lol. This was a joke wasn't it. You cannot add files with nothing in them but just their name and expect to be able to generate random maps.
Now is somebody with those files were to send them to our friend with all the info those files contain then that might work.

Before u start to talk about things u probably have no clue about, u should perhaps first get more informations.
The random generator is a part of SoD, but the game searches for specific files in these 2 directories, which came with the Armageddons Blade game.
If there do exist these 5 files, no matter which size or what content they have, SoD "opens" the door to the random generator.
Try it yourself and be surprised..

1) reply to Angelito: all above is correct, however random generator really will not work at this point, because you also need to create "...\random_maps\" folder in heroes root directory.
2) as alternative way to Xarfax's utility - another easy way to enable random map generator is to download Autosaver tool and enable RMG during installation.
http://randommaps.narod.ru/auto1_25.exe#Autosaver 1.25
It also saves a collection of autosave.gm2 or other files into separate folders. Collection of saves can be used to check opponents tactics after the game or to check if opponent played honorably.
Also it allows to switch to your favorite template in 1 click!
