Lords of Middle Earth
By GolluM[KoMe]


Your realms suffered from the wars opposing Harondor, Gondor and Umbar; but this time of conflict is about to end with the fall of Harondor.
A new age is about to begin! ; Liege Man, Gallant, Doughty, Tyrant, Bandit, Trader, Young, Old or whatever you are, you are the Lords of Middle Earth !
You will have to thrive, find new allies and protect your lands in these new but uncertain times. New conflicts will rise, kingdoms will fall, corruption will grow, Lords will die...

Kind of Map : Anno-like (Rpg/Builder/Diplomacy)

Number of Players : 1-8

Concept's key words : Start from scratch, do whatever you want, make your region prosperous, sell your goods, make alliances, declare war, dominate colonies.

Victory : Defeat all other players (with your possible ally) / destroy all the Factions or reach the victory conditions set by the host.

Players : Gondor, Khand, Umbar, Harondor and 8 players.

Needed stuff to work on LoME:
-Time free xD
-Rather good level with the World Editor
-You absolutly need to know the map rather well!





-A trading system with your ally player, like in Age of Mythology (or Age of Empire) : a trading unit is sent to your ally and it comes back with gold. The more your ally is far, the more you get, exponentially, which might encourage alliances with a far village. It would be automatical, with a boat (which would be easier to be made and more realistic). Theses boats could be attacked and you could not make more than X of 'em. There could be upgrades in the Shipyard to increase the speed and the limit...

-A better terrain

-Mercenaries to buy

-More slaves to buy

-New units for the Inns: saboteurs; invisible Hobbit Spies (which could be made everytime, but with a limit)

-New victory conditions: instead of having to destroy everything to win, the host could set victory conditions.
He would first choose a stuff (like Money in Stock; Bread in Stock; Number of Kills; Number of Colonies.....) and then an integer to reach between 5, according to the stuff chosen before (like for Money in Stock: 15 000; 20 000; 30 000; 50 000; 75 000).
Once done, he could choose an other condition etc etc...
This would be rather long to make, but not that hard, and would be SOOOO great ! With that, the whole gameplay would be redifined and you could not to make any soldier and only focus on your development :).
These conditions would then be written in the quest!

-Find a better way to make the unit entrance/leaving in and out of your town.
You could first also make a command like Type "-L" (for Leave) and the units you are curently selecting leave the place properly, like a Packsaddle horse leaving.

-A building that produces Items with :
Common Items (like Iron Sword)
Items according to the current warfare (like Armor of Gondor etc...) PS: Be careful with the warfare change with Elves/Orcs
Powerful Items very expensive, according to the Heroes you have, that cannot be broken, and that can be done only once (like 'Vilya' (the elven ring of Air, if you have Elrond, who actually owns this ring). These items would only be available when the hero reaches level X or after Y minutes...

-Archer tower uprgradable in Elite Archer Tower (in which you can place your Elite archers, with their abilities ....)

-According to the town you chose, in the Library, you can research something which makes you able to use a special ability (in the Library).
This ability would of that kind: Increases the Trade Rate (the price) for a specific good (that you choose in a Dialog Box); Decreases one; Create a little inflation in a specific place (Gondor, Khand or Umbar); Create Revolts which create an attack in a random town..........................

-Events which would occure each X sec. The could be negative, like the collapse of the price of a type of goods in a region, orc raids, bad weather which makes people leave a region, earthquakes, fires.....; positive: inflation, a baby boom .......; But also both: like a famine which would increases the price of Grain, Bread and Sheeps but stop the population growth (or even make it negative)..... You can find a lot of ideas with this :)

-The diplomatic system has to be rethought!
By example If a player which owns a town (like Amon Eithel) Which originally belongs to a Computer (Red here) breaks an ally treaty with this player (still Red xD), the Computer would declare war to the player to get the town back in its influence :).
A lot can be done !

-Add all towns a Faction captures to be bought by its allies.

-Updates according of the chosen town at the beggining.

-Multiboard :
Create 12 icons : 1 red, 1 blue, 1teal, .... 1 brown
Add 2 columns :
-Ally player, in which there is the color of the ally
-Ally faction




YES !! Except removing the the credits of those who made custom stuff :)




You can mail me at [email protected] or contact me here on the Hive :)
If you want any kind of stuff like the original minimap preview without my name etc etc... I'll send it to you! I really want this project to be continued!

Beggining
Each player begins by picking a hero and a location on the map : your village. The rune in front of the hero indicates if it is a strength hero (red), intelligence (purple) or agility hero (teal). You will have to upgrade your town and make it thrive while you must defend it. Your townhall can reach 4 levels. Each new researched level unlock new abilities/buildings/... (like in wc3).

Growth
To grow your village, you first have to produce raw materials (like grain/wood/grape...) that you will sell in the three big trade places : Pelargir in Gondor, the Havens of Umbar in Umbar and Amrûn in Khand. You can also buy these goods at these places.

Income/Population
The second important stuff to thrive is growing your population. Each potential new citizen needs an accomodation (houses) and a job (posts) (you can check in the multiboard if you need to make new houses or if there is a lack of job. Then, each inhabitant will pay taxes (each 3min) according to their wealth (2 gold $; 6 gold $$; ;12 gold $$$). If your are not allied with a faction you will pay to the nearest one a tribute of 25% of this income.

Ways
When you reach level 2, you must choose between 3 ways :
-Mayor : you will be more focused on development, taxes and selling.
-General : you will be more focused on troop production and elite units.
-Outlaw : you will be at war against all the faction and you'll be more focused on raids and piracy.

Warfare/Weapons
If you choose Mayor or General you must choose between 3 kind of warfare (gondorian, umbarean or khandish). It ONLY determines the kind of soldiers/towers/boats you will be able to make. (yes you can make Mûmakil in deep Gondor :).
To be made, each soldier needs a weapon (that is an item). To be used, a weapon must be put in a war building's inventory and will be added to a virtual stock. The knights and the packsaddle horses also need a horse in stock.



Alliance with a Player
To use diplomacy, you must click on 'Diplomatic Action' in your main building.

Since level 2 you can :
Become allied with an other Player if he is at least level 2 too. You can only ally 1 Player. You can unally a player each time you want.
Declare war on a Player if he's also at least level 2. You can propose peace to a player any time you want.

Since level 3 you can :

Become allied with 1 Faction. You and your ally player will be allied to the same Faction. You can unally a faction anytime you want but if you own one of the town that originally belonged to this faction (which usually happens), the faction will then declare war on you.

Since level 4 you can :
Declare war on a faction which will send you some troops each X seconds. Thanks to this war, you can capture new towns by force (having more inhabitants and more raw materials)!



What will the factions do during the game?

At the beginning, Umbar and Gondor invade Harondor and after a cold war, they will enter at war and will begin attack the opponent towns (progressively thanks to the already taken places).
If you enter at war against a faction, it will attack you at your "village" and also in the towns you took from it or the towns it would like to capture.
Each town is also protected by a few guards. Before taking a new one, make sure you will be able to keep it!



Where sell your goods?
Each faction capital (Pelargir, Amrûn and Heaven of Umbar) have 2 selling places. Just drop your resources or send your animals to sell them. When animals/packsaddle horse (with the activated option) leave your town, they will automatically go to the nearest place to sell (and drop goods and go back to your town if it's a packsaddle horse).

Impossible to sell goods
You cannot sell your goods to an ennmy faction or to a faction at war against one of your ally (faction or player).
By exemple if you are allied with Umbar and if Gondor is at war against it, you cannot sell your goods in Pelargir.

How much will you earn?
Each faction have a selling rate for each kind of good. The selling rates always increase (if there is not a negative event :) (Max : 1.3; Min : 0.7). Each time you sell goods in a region, it will decreases the rate, but only at this place. If the rate of a good is below 1, it will increase faster.
The selling rates also grow faster the more players there are.
By exemple, the Grain rate in Gondor increases by 1% each (2+(X*(0.91^number of player)) with X =18.
Some special hero skills (developement heroes)(Not already done) and som specific events (Not already done) can also influence those rates.



Raw Materials
When you choose a village (a place on the map) at the beginning, you also choose specific raw materials, according the climate, the landscape etc...
To produce a new resource, you hav to "upgrade" a circle of power and then will be created 1 item of X every Y seconds (or an animal).
Then you can upgrade this production site (each time you reach a new level) what will reduce the time to produce one good. This time can also be decreased by researching updates.
Raw materials you can produce :
-Since level 1 : Grape, Grain, Sheeps, Wood/Rock (that is directly added to your stock (100 Wood/Rock per unit).
-Since level 2 : Horses, Iron Ore.
-Since level 3 : Silk.
Raw materials produced in colonies :
When a good is produced in a colony, it's not turned into item but into a dummy transport. This transport must reach your village to be turned into item.

Workshops
They can be built since level 3 and permit to turn your raw materials into manufactured goods. The workshops need an amount of raw material for each manufactured good or will just not be created.

Manufactured Goods
-Since level 3 : Bread, Wine, Weapons, Supplies and Milk (that is a bit different).
-Since level 4 : Silk Fabric.

Houses
Three kinds of houses (that create accomodations) can be built :
-Tents : 10 accomodations for poors.($)
-Thatched Cottages : (tent upgraded) 20 accomodations for poors.($)
-Stone Houses : 10 accomodations for middle-class inhabitants.($$)
-Manors : 5 accomodations for upper-class inhabitants.($$$)

Jobs
Each time anew building is created, it increases the number of posts, according to the qualification of the employees ($, $$ or $$$) and the level of the building.

Markets
Since level2, you can make markets in which you can :
-Sell your goods (25% of the basical price) to your inhabitants.
-Turn your wood into item. (to sell it or trade it with other players)
-Turn your gold into item. (to trade it with other players)
-Train Packsaddle Horses
-Stock any kind of item (the other buildings automatically drop the items that are not linked with their workings).

Shiping Port
The shiping ports increase the food limit (only used by the soldiers).

Mason's Guild
You can reseach some technologies to improve your buildings, such as "Fortress" that greatly increases the HP, range and damages of your towncenter but also add a trebuchet on its top.
You can also train engineers that can make siege weapons anywhere on the map with an additional cost of 150 gold.
Mason's Guilds also regenerte the nearby buildings.

Inns
They add a lot of job, have no limit and you can recruit random travellers that lodge themselves in it each x second : Prawler, Barbarians, Bounty Hunter, Dirty-Minded Assassin, Errant Priest, Gashed Veteran, Old Hermit, Knight Errant and Cleric; with custom abilities.

Libraries
You can research "knowledge" to increase the skill points of your heroes by 1.
You can also get bonuses thanks to your "stats" (like the number of used horses, your kills, how many time you played...) : Metropolis; Bloodthursty; Master of Cavalry; The Grande Armée; Creditor; Supplies of Mass; Obstinate.

Town Squares
They permit to organise some events in your town since level 2 : Dance Festival; Military Parade; Tournament; Feast; Town Fair; Torture Performance and Charity Meal.

Smithy
There you can buy items according to your warfare and your heroes, who can get a very unique and powerful item.

Milk
You can upgrade "Milking" since your Sheep Pen is level 3. It allows all your Sheep Pen (at level 3 and 4) to produce Milk thanks to sheeps in its fence. Every 50+(200 - ((Number of Sheeps) x 15)) seconds will be created a Milk. Make sure the sheeps are in the fence. (min=50 sec <=> max sheeps= 14).




Warfare
When you reach level 2, you choose beetween 3 warfares that will define the soldiers you will be able to make, but also what upgrades you will be able to research in each kind of barrack:
-Gondorian Warfare : resistant units, good siege weapons, researches based on armor and HP.
-Khandish Warfare : speed units, good cavalry, researches based on MS and AS.
-Umbarean Warfare : powerful units, good archery, researches based on damages and ranges.

-Elite Tower : great damage, 1 target, one arrow ability (according to the warfare)
-Archer Tower : tower in which you can put your archers in garrison.
-Prefectures : A main building with 4 light towers that has an aura that increases the the damages.

In your barracks, you can also "create walls" which will reduce the entrance size and make your town easier to defend.

Barracks
Your war warkers can build 5 kinds of barracks : Barracks(lvl2), Archeries (lvl2), Stables(lvl3), Elite Barracks(lvl4) and Siege Workshops(lvl4).
You can make the soldiers of the warfare you choose.

Scouts
Scouts are trained in barracks. This is a fast unit with a large field of vision, even by night that can build Watch Towers (invisible) to keep an eye on parts of the map.



How to get some?
You can get/loose renown by:
-Making specific events on your Town Square
-Sending money to Mithlond/Angmar
-Building a dark/light Statue/Academy
What is it useful for?
When you'll reach +40/-40 Renown, you'll be able to bing a delegation from Mithlond/Angmar. They will propose you a treaty in which they wil be able to settle in your village to have enclave in the South of Middle Earth in exchange of their knowledge:
If you accept, you'll have a whole new warfare (Elvish/Orcish). The barracks, stables, towers ... will be replaced by new ones and Elite barracks will be destroyed. You can instead make an Ent Stone/Troll Cage. You will also be able to choose a third hero in a list of 8, - those that have already been picked.
If you refuse, you will get the third hero liked to your town + a new unit in your Elite Barrack according to your warfare : Dome Guard (Gondorian); Consul Bodyguard (Umbarean); Suderon Chariot (Khandish).



Heroes
[COLOR=&RoyalBlue]At the beggining, you will have to choose between 3 heroes of a city. Then, when you will reach level 3, you will have to choose a second hero (one of the 2 others of the region).
When a hero dies, he will needs (50+12*level-1.25^level) seconds to be revived (at your town).


Bonuses
If your first chosen hero is more focused on developement (purple rune), you will earn 15% extra income + at the beginning you have an extra packsaddle horse.
If your hero is more focused on war (red rune), you will get free extra weapons in your virtual stock.

Demi-Heroes
When you will reach level 2 and 4 you will receive a demi hero that can be made again in a barrack (or an archery) if he dies. Each place (village) has 2 specific demi-heroes.



Each 3 min you will earn an income (which can be negative:).
Each poor inhabitant($) adds +2 to the income;
Each middle-class inhabitant($$) adds +6 to the income;
Each upper-class inhabitant($$$) adds +12 to the income;
From this income is deduced a maintenance cost of your troop. (0 (level 1); 1x used food (level 2 and 3); 2x used food (level 4)).
If you are not allied with a faction, you pay 25% of this sum to the nearest one for "protection" :).



Quests arrive in the big towns each x seconds. Check the Town Criers to know what quests are active. They are very useful to get xp and gold, but also items (especially at the beggining).
Before someone reaches level 3 : Pelargir, Amrun and Umbar will each generate 4/5 "easy" quests.
After someone reaches level 3 : Pelargir, Amrun and Umbar will each generate 4/5 hard quests.(The hard quests are not already made).




Random events can occur (weather event, bandit attack, famine, epidemics...) according to the levels of the player.



There are a lot of creeps on the map. Some of them can hide treasures...
You can hire mercenaries in mercenary camps (not already done).
You can buy slaves to slave merchants.
You can buy items to itinerant merchants.



Ardûmir is a place of beauty. Between desert, oasis and sea, this region offers multitude sumptuous panoramas, but also a high variety of tropical resources.
In such an arid place, you can produce Horses/Sheep, Grape and Silk. The fertile bank of the river also permit the running of palm trees.
In spite of its richness, this region is far from the high trade places in which you can at least sell your scarce goods with an expensive price.

Between mountain and sea, Endil is a remote town of Belfalas.
Its region is known for its mines that provide the foundry of the southern Gondor.
In this realm, you can produce Wheat (Grain), Sheep/Horses and Iron Ore. The nearby mountain also permit the exploitation of a Quarry to gather Rock.

With the fall of Harondor, the plunderings of Fanuilond have stopped and the region can be exploited again. Nevertheless, if a new war is triggered, this wealthy realm will plundered again; without counting on the frequent bandit raids.
Thanks to the heavy rain brought by the wind of the South, this land is maybe the most fertile of Southern Gondor which permit to cultivate varied plantations.
In this realm, you can produce Wheat ([COLOR=darkred"]Grain[/COLOR]), Grape and Sheep/Horses.The nearby forest also permit to provide the town in wood.

Next to the prosperous Pelargir, Hyarpendë is a village of Ithilien which suffers from the war against Harondor.
Nevertheless, the vicinity with both the river Poros and The Anduin, this city can thrive.
In this realm, you can produce Wheat (Grain), and 2 Sheeps/Horses. The nearby forest also permit to provide the town in wood.

Right in the middle of a desert, between mountain and sea, Isigir is in a very harsh place.
But the factors that permited the settlement of this region is a little oasis, its mountain that can be exploited, as well as its position, close to Umbar and on the trade route from Caldûr and Erädas.
In such an arid place, you can produce Grape, Silk and Iron Ore. The nearby mountain also permit the exploitation of a Quarry to gather Rock.

During the prosperous reign of Sanghayandion in Harondor, Methir was unfortunetly a place battle, which Gondorians used to assail by boat.
Nevertheless, with the fall of Harondor, this realm can thrive again, but it will have to find new allies with the arrival of the Gondorians that can claim this land.
In this realm, you can produce Wheat (Grain), and 2 Sheep/Horses. The nearby forest also permit to provide the town in wood.

Between the Ephel Dúath and the river of Harnen, [COLOR=Orange&]Oud Ilaz is a continental place.[/COLOR]
Its region is known for its horses and its wines but also for its mining exploitations.
In this realm, you can produce Grape, Sheep/Horses and Iron Ore. The nearby mountain also permit the exploitation of a Quarry to gather Rock.

After Gobel Ancalimon, Ramlond is the second town of Harnen.
Its region is known for its great plains where breeding is exelent. Its position near the capital of Harondor would have been a great advantage; unfortunately this kingdom is in decline and at war against Umbar and Gondor.
In this realm, you can produce Corn (Grain), and 2 Sheep/Horses. The nearby forest also permit to provide the town in wood.

Before 1650 T.A (Third.Age) -The influence of Gondor decreases in the South, while the one of Umbar is growing. The ambitious prince Sangahyandion, son of the current concil of Umbar, takes the head of a powerful army and in only 1 year, conquer all Harondor which he makes his realm.

~1650 T.A -The talented and fiery strategist was taken by his run-up and invades Ithilien. During the Battle for Ithil, he seizes Minas Ithil. He also plunders Pelargir but doesn't manage to control the city.

~1653 -In spite of its successes, the armies of Sangahyandion are manhandled in Ithilien because of guerillas. So he decides to continue his plan as fast as possible and begins the siege of the capital of Gondor : Osgiliath; but the armies of Gondor are now organized and repel his attack during the bloody Battle For Osgiliath. After this failure, the prince is chased away from Ithilien and Pelargir began its recovery.

~1660 -After a time of raid and guerillas, the Gondorians launch a counter offensive against Harondor and Umbar. During the Battle to Umbar, the King Tarondor manages to force Umbar to stop its support to Harondor by making a daring blockade of the Heaven and after a few naval victories.

~1664 -The Harondor begins to decline and Prince Sangahyandion takes refuge in Ramlond, leaving his realm to the assaults of Gondor; but Umbar also wants a slice of the cake and send armies to at least conquer the southern Harondor (Harnen). This period is a time of opportunity for all ambitious Lord.
In the scenario Lords of Middle Earth, you control one of these lords that have been ruined by the late wars and take a new beginning.

Write the next instalment of this story ! Rule Middle Earth !


This fictive scenario is inspired by the books and letters of J.R.R. Tolkien and the website of Sampsa Rydman: Lindefirion.
This is a fiction story from what could occur in about 1650 T.A. If you wanna know more about this period, I invite you to visit the website Lindefirion.

Map Story
I started (5/6 years ago xD) to work on Battle For Osgiliath (from scratch) thanks to Lindëfirion, with my poor knowledge of roc maps with my late map Battle For Middle Earth 6.5. Most of the units/skills of LoME are from this map.
After ending that rather bad but appreciated map, I started Battle To Umbar by erasing the terrain of Osgiliath. After a while I thought about doing a trilogy, so I gave the management of the first map Battle For Ithil to my half brother that is still working on it (also originally based on Battle For Osgiliath).
Battle To Umbar was really appreciated but the map never really worked and in January 2010 I decided to make an other kind of map with the same terrain to save time and to keep spreading the story of this period : Lords of Middle Earth.
And the map came out in March 2010; and thanks to you guys is working as I couldnt have expected!
(You can find these five maps here : http://warlotr.free.fr/)

Influences
First influences of course come from the Tolkien's universe and from the maps of the Lord of the Ring on Warcraft.
Influences also come from old strategy games such as Age of Empire, Age of Mythologie, Starcraft... but mostly from management games like Anno (1701/1404), Sim City (3000, 4), Total War or even Mount and Blade.
Now you know (almost ^^) everything !

Modern Gamers : An other warcraft/starcraft website.
A chinese website xD
Some other not interesting websites like epicwar...



Some of the screenshots must be updated as the map changed :).

Uh, problem, i cant edit my origional post?!
oh and gollum did you read what i said? his skill brings back units, and demi heroes, the best solution is to remove the type you renamed as demi heroes to not be risen, because when the demi dies, and you use the skill and the demi gets brought back to life temporarily then 'splodes, you can make another.

Uhu ye a system of valour (or renown) could be really fun; but we needa find what would it really make xD. Tell me if you have any idea... I also might add some stuff from Mount and Blade(Warband) like being able to spouse a wife, getting this renown, being able to have new vassals, an heraldry system... Btw in Mou and Bl, getting more renown makes able to hire more soldiers, i could do that too !
Btw did you check the Library ?

Thx for checking the stuff with the old ermit, I ll fix that xD.

I keep finding stuff and keep forgetting them, goddamn it. >.< oh and that was on 1.1, not 1.3, Forgot to download it XD
OH AND, you should try to make a wandering populace, that would improve the feel, like 1 person for every 10 you have, that would be excelent, just wandering around but they cant go outside of town.
(edit button works) was reading the thing you said before, try to reduce the triggers, like put multiple triggers of the same general thing in one whole trigger or something like that (i dunno, im not a triggerer but i have fiddled with it)

Click to expand...
That's something I was willing to do, but i'll make them "walkable" or, i assure you, there are too many in town and you cannot move ur army xD. There will also soon be a WoodCut System (dummy lumberjacks doing their job).
btw 1 for 10 ??? xDD do you imagine if you have + from 1000 inabitants ? (which occurs each time you really play it) xD. I think i ll make 1/20 + a limit or semthing like that.

Btw thank for ur ideas they're always good :)
+rep ^^

Actually you could make a special effect with peasant model and plant them in some heavyly accessable parts of cities, maybe scalle down a bit them...
Dummy lumberjacks? you can also use the "Spawn corpse" ability that crypt has with minimalising the corpse count and changing amount/model type of effect, this way creating some kind of something surrounding a building...
Talking about wandering, you could probably make slave merchants traveling and maybe add other merchants too. Like some kind of elvish merchant, selling clothes that allow you to shadowmeld (Like ones given to brotherhood, I'm sure these existed and in ancient times because elves didn't changed from that time), Lembas bread (It's so delicious, why didn't you put it? Why? Oh right, Gollum hates elf magic...) and mabe elven bows.
Once again about the history: Since as I understood from reading the history of Middle Earth which I found in third book, in these times Sauron was still making the rings of power (Well Witcher is not corrupted into Nazgul, so at least it was after the first defeat of Sauron, but that doesn't change the thing), anyway in these times people were making great weapons that later they couldn't replicate, so maybe you should add a variety of highly powerful items?

You might have undestood that in FIRST AGE, all the stuff u said occured. But in LoME, you're in 1660 THIRD AGE xD. (read the Reference stuff in my description, you'll see that Sauron was defeated in 0 TA !)
By the way, about the stuff u were saying with the "Graveyard" instead of crypt... 88Warcraft3 will also work on this, but not exactly this way, with trees, flowers etc...

(i fixed leaks but it gives shitty stuff xD, working on it.... 1.4 soon !!)

Thaaanks :)

Uhu ^^
By the way could you rate the map please ? xD You're the one that help me most and no rate ...
By the way i can understand u're waitin for a better version :)

Btw i think nazguls appear since 2251 S.A.
Btw i am willing to add an attack from The Witch King, from Angmar (replacing useless player 10 Harondor xD) (if you noticed well, if u leave after 2000 sec and check the name of player 10 in the stats it's Forces of Angmar xD)
He could even settle in a random city ... it would be fun ! especially when you know that all the units/skills/icons of mordorish and angmarish stuff are already in the map xD

Then do it! That would be great!
You would get a new oponent and all the player would have to co-operate to defeat the great enemy someway...

Talking about the town square (You could make so it is accessed from 2nd level and you with every following you unlock a new event on it), you can make it just like this: It trains units, trained units have an aura or some kind of ability and using trrigers you set so they would have timed life (Like summoned units).

Oh, and there's the possible events:
-Dance festival (Dancers created, buffs units)
-Parade (More expensive than fest, but better and longer lasting buff)
-Town fair (Creates few merchants selling goods for a time)
-Field hospital (Heals surrounding unit, shortens the hero respawn rate, revives units)
-Town meeting/Call to War (Creates a group of soldiers)

Talking about making decorative lumberjacks, you could make the decorative houses arround the town too. Kinda like when your town level-ups, you get bigger buildings around it in global map.


You didn't voted for you map too and you can.

WAOW !!!!!!
It makes me wanna do it right now !! (square)
I will ask for doing a new model based on white tile texture (quickly done even for a nooby modeler, and i m worst than this ^^)
So it would produce one/several units that spread a buff ? or i can also make a buff from the square with an almost infinite range

And no i cannot vote for my own ressources xDD

For the houses "out" of the town, if one day i've the time it would be great too :)


Btw tell me if you have some new ideas for the Library (and if you enjoy it)

Haven't tested library yet, but you could probably add those researches from item producing buildings into it. You know, "Blast furnace" and friends. Library is some kind of learning, educuational building, so this might fit. Plus it will increase the immportance of Library significantly.

You should make so summoned units have auras/abilities, that's much easier.

You sure about the units ? And they would be common units with an added aura or some kind of Minstrel ? xD (it's not harder with a HUGE aura but it woul work on the whole map which can seem "not real enough"

By the way your idea for the library is good, but there would not be enough spots xD (12 only whereas there are alread 7 bonuses + 1 research :D)

Only you should someway make sure that the effect will last for longer
Click to expand...
What do you mean ?
you can also make an event for square that would someway increate your item/money stock.
Click to expand...
I think these kind of events will only be in the random ones i'm gonna do.
But they could increase the Renown I will add !!
By the way do you know an other application for the renown (instead of increasing the army limit (max food ^^))

Dunno, increase income? Decrease mainteance cost? Give small hero buff?
Click to expand...
I think i will only make a buff that works on all the units of the maps ^^, unless if i find an easy way to make the buff staying on units ...

Give small hero buff?
Click to expand...
Yeah we could "favor" the first lord you chose (the real one) by giving him an improvable buff (according to his renown) ! Great idea !!

I also thought about choosing your coat of arms at the beggining, but i dont manage to use the flags properly after ... if you have any idea how to proceed ... :)

EDIT I'am back !! :)

The map is no longer in beta so now i'ma test it from my last review that i ave this game a 7.9 for having errors and bugs but now its improved and fun. i rate this 9.8 it be cool if it shows like villagers walking around your city but yet since i mostly end up with like 1000 citizens than get killed by someone that'll be hard for moving units through them to protect.

I think you could possibly do a good/evil system(Like in mass effect fable games like that) once you get more quests events. As people get more good or evil maybe allow them access to special units or buildings like a goblin cave. I also ran into a bug( version 1.5) with the hero that uses the brambles with the tentacles. The brambles wouldn't disappear so I could spam invulnerable permanent tentacles at the opening of my base. It would also be nice to do something with the unoccupied player towns.

Agh I'll fix that ! Thanks !! (i must have stupidly removed the group that will be desrtoyed but I will instead pu a timer for the tentacles !)
Btw yor idea is great ! but I would say that it more looks like KOTOR in which the your Dark Side skills are more powerful the more evil you are (and you can also get some extra ones).
I'll think about it !!

+There is the List of stuff that might come :
1. A Square
2. "Arcane Sanctums" for each warfare with in each a kind of priest and a kind of mage (or more).
3. Orcish Warfare xD
4. Trade between allies (aoe kind)
5. Better Terrain xD
6. Attacks more and more important in the time
7. New building : Slaughterhouse : In pasture (instead of horses and sheep, that would provide Whool and no milk anymore), you could now produce bull and cow (different things !!). They could both b sold at the same price BUT : cow would produce milk like sheeps did; bulls can be turned into "prepared meat" in the slaughterhouse !! xD
8. A start bonus : at the beggining you choose bewtween several bonuses : +horses, +weapons, a good random item, +wood ... DONE IN 1.5
9. New bonus in Library : when you have more than 100 resource of the same kind in your warehouse: it gives + MS.
10. Saboteurs.
11. A plunder system to steal resources in player towns.
12. Challenge : at the beggining, the host can choose a challenge to reach to win the game (having 150 soldiers, 30 000 gold ...., or just to get a GREAT bonus (like infinite weapons, 30K gold ... xD)
13. A building to make items, like in warcraft, for each warfare.
14. Archer towers upgradable into Elite Archer Tower in which yu can put your elite archers instead of your common ones.
15. Press 'Escape', and all the soldiers that you are selecting will leave the town properly ! :D
16. After 2000 sec (after harondor to be defeated), Player 10 is replaced by "Forces of Angmar" : the Witch King settles in a random village, and attacks all the players/ factions (or asks a tribute);
17. Towns captured to Harondor by Umbar and Gondor (or taken to the to the other, but itinially owned by Harondor) can be sold by these 2 factions to an ally.
18. Renown system : you gain some each time you kill X soldiers, each time you end quests ..... It permits to hire more soldiers (increases the food limit) + gives an aura to the first Lord you chose that becomes more and more effective the more you have renown. Renown might also be required to do some actions ...

:) The renown could be used in negative too ! It would increase the food limit according to the |Renown| (instead of Renown). + when u reach -20 you can do soe orcs by exemple and +20 some royal guards or something like that.
XD

Maybe he has an old version or weak PC?

You're really excited about the square... wait joining orcs? So you could be like a Saruman and create your own orc army?
The item shop could be "Antique market" or something like that... so you would also have to "trade" some of your items (Like "5 Weapons" for "magical glowy ultra sword of chopping heads").

Click to expand...
OMFG THE COOLEST IDEA EVER !!! you digg huge wholes and cross orcs with goblins to get uruks xDD
Since you get -X renown, a nazgul comes to you and ask you if you wanna make a deal with Sauron The Great. If you answer No, there is just a small band of orcs that attack you once; and if you answer Yes, you can now produce orcish structures etc... OR it could replace all your structures by orcish ones (you couldnt make any humans anymore) (I prefer that way btw ^^)

+ since there is a cool stuff for an evily lord, there must be something for a good one ! : when you reach +X renown, you can have this kind of agreement with elves

OR we could make that after some time, this kind of agreement occurs for EACH player : Renown>X : elves ; X<Renown<-X : dwarves (or something else) ; -X>Renown : Orcs AND if you refuse : you keep playing with yur first chosen warfare. It seems rather easy to do (since all orcs unit/heroes/abilities are already made); BUT it would onlywork with a complete and great Renown system.
+There, you get your 3rd hero !! (the third hero of the village of you decline the offer; and you choose between 1/2/3 heroes of the race you accepted the deal.

For the diplomacy : you can't ally a faction anymore if you accept a deal + a faction enters at war against you (something like if you chose the orcs : Gondor; if you chose the Elves : Umbar; if you chose the dwarves : khand).

The item shop could be "Antique market" or something like that... so you would also have to "trade" some of your items (Like "5 Weapons" for "magical glowy ultra sword of chopping heads").
Click to expand...
ye great idea; items wouldnt cost a lot of gold but would recquire resources ! even wine, bread, silk ... It would b great; too many things to do ... btw I 'll leavethe 22nd June ... Tleno, do u feel ready to continue ? xD

Maybe he has an old version or weak PC?
Click to expand...
I don't think so cause i tested 1.5 yesterday and it was rather laggy whereas we were only 2 players... I must find what leaks !

Btw I don't manage to do a proper system for squares (with buffs that last in time), I will for now put a buff for the whole map :'(

It would also be nice to do something with the unoccupied player towns.
Click to expand...
An unoccupied player town could be turned into a normal one (controlled by neutrals or a faction) that has 1 raw material site.


BIG EDIT! : I found what is the F$%@ing stuff that leaks (I think xD) ... (btw it was not really a leak problem xD)

Nah, Saruman had humans too, remember hobits got some tobacco from human quarters?
Click to expand...
that's not the human quarter,that s the Saruman's personal stock (in the book btw ^^)
I say it replaces only war unit producing buildings.
Click to expand...
Yes ofc xD (I would never remake so many buildings just for appearance xD)
So what's the problem? Too much trrigers? That's actually a big problem, it seems it causes the most ;ag and might collapse the map.
Click to expand...
Nop ! That when you use the event Real becomes higher than X (it was first time I used it :D), i thought that it was ONLY when it come from lower than X to higher than X, but it in fact works EACH TIME Real is changed and is higher than X.
You can't even imagine how many leaks it was creating xD (I'm fixing it right now)

I hope you understand if you still have any other problems or questions you are free to ask ofc!

Click to expand...

If you are still looking, send me the map, and I'll see what I can do.
OFC, it depends if there are like 50 scripts or 200 :p

anyways, I'll edit this with a review in a bit.

EDIT:
CWeener's Review {Protected maps} V3.03 Review # 18


Reviewing the map " Lords of Middle Earth1.6"


Rating System (in weener points:)

1-10 Originality
1-10 Replayability (discounted for most cinematics*)
1-10 Triggering (discounted for protected maps*)
1-10 Terraining
1-10 Object Managing (custom items and destructibles etc...)
1-10 Spells (if applies**)
1-10 Description (On THW and In-game (Loading Screen and information))
1-15 Engaging a.k.a. fun to play
1-15 Misc (size, system implementation, laginess etc...)
-100 or +100 for abiding by THW rules.
* = when one is discounted then other sections maximums are raised, and those sections are judged harder (if your map applies then it will show you what i raised later)
** = some maps dont really need spells so this section is discounted and given an automatic 10.
Rating System Scores

Less than 100 = FF- (Reported, You clearly didnt abide by all of the posting rules, and i have reported you for (not) doing so.)
100-150 Points = F- (Rancid and Needs major work. Vote for Rejection and no +rep.)
151-160 Points = F (Bad and Needs work. vote for Rejection and no +rep.)
161-170 Points = D (Below Average and Needs much updating. has potential. vote for rejection and no +rep.)
171-180 Points = C (Okay but Needs updates. has potential. vote for rejection* and no +rep.)
181-190 Points = B (Good but still not reaching full potential vote for approval but no +rep)
191-199 Points = A (Great and probably has reached full potential**. good job. vote for approval and +rep.)
200 Points = A+ (Amazing, you did everything right and went all out, approval and +rep)
* = depending on the map really, and what categories it scored low in
** = not always but most cases.
Lords of Middle Earth1.6

Triggering scores not available, so other maximums were raised(see rating system*)

1-11 Originality *10* while this map has unique aspects, it's main concept has been done on rare occasions.
1-11 Replayability *7* It gets really laggy towards the end, and it is really long, so I'd say a 7
1-11 Terraining *9* lack of doodads.
1-11 Object Managing *9* A lot of work, Some tooltips were hard to read though, due to your english :/
1-11 Spells *10* Bugfree and some were original
1-11 Description *11* Gives all necessary info with well used BB codes.
1-17 Engaging *15* It was fairly engaging.
1-17 Misc *14* *SIGH* everything here was perfect except the extreme lag.
-100 or 100 Rules *100* :grin:
0-200 All-in-all *185* B (Good but still not reaching full potential vote for approval and +rep was given)

Author's Note,

I liked this map, as it is fairly original and you gave it nice execution. The lag is what kept you from that A though, and I'm not expecting a lagfree came of this size, just a leak free one.
Bugs:
Why the hell is the well selection size sooo big?
some male units had female voices and vice versa
There is a leak somewhere, as game goes on, my FPS average drops, signifiganly. 59-50 Average early to mid game. 40's Average mid game. 30's - 20's late game.



Recommendations:
Just fix the lag :p




[liked]
Well, there is simply too much to say abou what I like, which is pretty much everything except the bugs I mentioned.


[didn't like]
No doodads, the bugs, the lag. :/


~~~~~~~~~~~~
If any map I've reviewed has been updated, feel free the ask me to re-review it. or if I haven't reviewed YOUR map, feel free to ask me. :)

As I said earlier, the lag must be created by huge amounts of trrigers. It really often happens to great well-made maps and that's one of Warcraft 3 limitations. It can be fixed only by inviting to help a JASS scripter or learning the JASS by yourself.

The well's selection size marks it's area of effect where it heals everything.

Agh i must fix that (I never play with the warcraft sound so I didn't notice xD, btw it might also be male character with a female unit no ?)
