Hello mappers.
My map is still in early stage, but the main reason I am posting this is the terrain.
Me and my team have tried to copy the actual LOTR terrain by the official maps and I think we quite succeded. Before taking the map further in development, I'd like to push terrain to perfection.
That's why I'd like some opinions about terrain improvement and also some critics about it. I think this is also the only map which actually triest to copy the original by-the-book terrain of LOTR.
Map name:
LOTR - ?
Name of the creator:
cen (aka klemen), mezhu
Current stage of the map:
Terraining and unit customisation
Summary of the map gameplay/objectives:
It will be a 5v5 map (6v6 with one comp per side), Gondor vs Mordor forces. Each player will have a specific role in the alliance and a specific unit customisation.
Each player will manipulate his base and barracks with appropriate units. Buildings will be deployable (you can move them anywhere you want by transforming them into a wagon and redeploying somewhere else).
Gold income will be periodical, additional gold comes from owner of gold mine. Map has a uniqe gate system.
At partly randomised time of the gameplay, a true story events will appear (ex: massive attack on Minas Tirith, arrival of Rohan forces, arrival of Ghosts and Aragorn, etc..). This will make the map much more interesting, including cinematics.
Miscellaneous Info (credits?): Credits to the creator of Tirith Walls (will be added inside the map ofc, I don't have time to check who is it now..).
Map attached. Unprotected and freely viewable. It can be tested, but there is 0 gameplay atm, just viewing the terrain and move the units around.
