Big Project: LotR mod.....

[Balrog]

Yup I was thinking about that as well, Kinboat.

Guys until FE 2.1 is ready, I wont start the LotR mod, so please be patient.
The LotR mod will take lot of time to make also. If any you have any ideas, just post them here.

 

[Kindred72]

I've got some images i've got from the web that may be neat to use for wonders or whatever.

 

[Kindred72]

i have more

 

[Balrog]

Nice.

I will post my ideas, after FE 2.1 is completed. [Not sure when, waiting for new gfx etc. ]
Propably a few days.

This will be hard work, but no doubt, that we need a lotr mod!

 

[GEChallenger]

I'll be patiently waiting!

BUMP


I'd really like to get this made.

 

[Nder]

Kindred, you certainly are doing your part for this mod. Nice units!

 

[Kindred72]

bump



hey Balrog, any news on doing this?

 

[Sarevok]

I would really like to see a LOTR modpack, it would serve my purpouses since i have 2 LOTR maps made and I always feellike there is something missing to them.

 

[aaglo]

How's this for a LOTR-mine?

 

[mrtn]

aaglo, that's looking good. But it would maybe be a good idea to make it impossible to mine grassland and/or plains, to reduce the number of them on the map.
And Mountains should really be impassable for all units, so that it becomes harder to sneak into Mordor, and to get past the Misty Mountains. Just make the Pass of Caradhras hills, and the rest mountains. If warpstorms terrain is used, which I like very much, then his jungle would look good as Mirkwood.
PS. Did you guys see my first try on a hobbit city in yoda's thread, over there? =>

 

[Balrog]

I know that I told that before v2.1
However I really wanna complete FE. That will be v3.0 most likely.
After that I will add units only propably.
Just be patient please. After v3.0 I will start to work on the LotR/Arda mod.

 

[Yoda Power]

aaglo-they look cool

 

[Kindred72]

very cool aaglo

And what do we do with ressources on mountains? Imagine that: you have two irons, a few gems and an uranium ressource in mountains, but you can't have them because your worker can't build road over it. Mountains should be impassable to all, exept workers.

You want to see a LOTR mod with uranium?!
Of course you have to mod the rescources too, and put those rescources somewhere else.

 

[Sir John]

A lotr mod with uranium would be cool....................... just kidding..
I do agree with fier, Workers shoud be able to climb in mountains (or even better, make a special worker, maby a dwafen worker, that can go into the mountains, but he should be worse the the regular worker in some areas...

 

[Balrog]

Well, workers will be able to climb the mountains only. Maybe dwarves as well? We shall see.
I like this idea. Side note: I think that there wont be terraform in the mod. Maybe forest to grasslands only? Im not sure yet.

 

[Fier Canadien]

Why? Won't there be a special elf unit that plants forest? Or a casad/orc one that build mines?

 

[Balrog]

Hm maybe its possible, if a specific with civ will have a Non Era special tech.
