Fredius War of the Ring Mission Maps

<< < (9/27) > >>

Fredius:
Actually I was planning to close the chapter of the Battle Under the Trees with the Siege of Dol Guldur :P. In the lore it was never stated that the battle took place inside Thranduils Halls. The name of the battle is "Battle Under the Trees" after all.

Also giving Mirkwood another battle puts them too much into the spotlights; the Battle of Lothlorien was more important to Sauron. The greatest part of his army went to Lothlorien, while only a smaller part attacked Mirkwood to keep them at bay. Sauron wanted to wait untill the Easterlings had taken Erebor, so that they could reinforce the forces of Dol Guldur against Mirkwood. This obviously never happened while the Easterlings couldn't conquer Erebor.

Also the progress on Dol Guldur has been put on standby for now :P. I'm waiting for a mapper to finish his great Dol Guldur map so that I can use it for the mission. In the meantime I'm working on the Battle of Dale mission for the Sons of Durin sub-mod. This mission will ofcourse be included in my own mappack.

--- Zitat von: UlfricStormcloak148 am  3. Feb 2016, 16:29 ---Fredius, thanks to the released of the Woodland Realm map by calsash (Great map by the way). Would it be possible to add this map for The Battle under the Tree ? With Dol Guldur and Goblins army against Mirkwood Ranger and Soldier. (Instead to have an army, the Player begins with only two Mirkwood Ranger and the player must build his own army outside and inside the fortress) The castle outside of the fortress will be Lothlorien of course and the 7 Settlements will be Mallorn Tree and the Two Outpost being Lothlorien or Greenwood fortress.

With that, the battle will be in two times :

First : After 10-20 minutes Mordor invade the south forest (Goblin, Troll, Dol Guldur, Warg and Spider) and must destroy the castle and others building outside before create their own forces. The player (Lothlorien/Mirkwood) must defend and kill the maximum units before being all surrounded and retreat inside the Greenwood Fortress.

Second : The Siege of the Woodland Realm which the player 1 must defended at all cost before destroy the enemy fortress.

aha thanks for the kind words about my map :)

Fredius:
And ofcourse I also share my Dale map preview in my own thread. This will be the place where the Battle of Dale mission will be fought for most of the part, behind the city are the gates of Erebor. More details will follow soon, but here are some screenshots to give you an impression of the map:









This map is still WIP, so some things may change if necessary. I made this map for the Sons of Durin submod, which can be found here: http://forum.modding-union.com/index.php/topic,32542.0.html

Note that I would personally advise you to download the map with the submod, because the submod will include new models that will make the map more epic. These models include:

- The current buildings will get a seperate skin to match the buildings of Dale from the Hobbit movie.
- New Easterling Swordsmen, Archers and Siege Weapons.
- The current Easterling Soldier with shield will get a longer pike/halberd.
- Bard II, King Brands son, will get a model.
- King Dain may get a rework, but this is not sure.

That Dale map is amazing, Fred! Really good job!
Is there any chance you'll release an unscripted version of the map, where you can actually play as the Men of Dale but there's no preprogrammed battle? (and maybe Dwarves are recruitable in settlements and outposts^^)

Also, keep in mind Gnomi once explained me how to apply to objects different textures (which is basically what Dale buildings are: Gondor buildings with different textures), so if you want I can help you to give to the already there buildings the proper textures (and I can also help you with the "unscripted" version^^)
Let me know!^^

Fredius:
Thanks man!

Having a lot of other projects I don't really have the time to make an unscripted version. If you want I can leave that to you ;).

Yes I know about that tutorial. However to apply another texture the first thing I need to do is make a texture, which I suck at :P. LordofMoria, the leader of the SoD submod, is going to change the textures for the buildings. I will use those textures then, but I will first have to wait untill he made them :). Ofcourse if you can texture yourself that would be great!
