A mission map made for Edain Mod 4.0. Command Thranduil and his army against the hordes of Dol Guldur in this singleplayer map inspired by the Total War series. This means no building, only fighting ;)! Installation: Adding a singleplayer map has a little different procedure compared to regular skirmish maps. Go to your My The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king Files, you can access it by pressing "Windows-key" and "R" at the same time, this will open the Run option. Type "%appdata%" in the search box without the quotemarks, and you will get to the hidden Appdata folder. You will see the My The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king Files folder inside of it. Open that folder, and then open the Maps folder. Put my map in that folder, and you can now find my map in the skirmish menu. The player must be Lothlorien, and pick NO second player, or else it will result in a quick victory! Also the player must select the bottom start location in the Skirmish menu.
Nice one
Lovely map :)
Epic portrait of Mirkwood \o/
Thanks guys :).
That update was AWESOME, almost no lags, BUT please, next time you do the battle, don't do it at night, I can't see anything XD
I was aiming to make it as dark as in the movies xD, but don't worry, the next map will be in daylight ;).
Lol and I thought the last one was awesome!!Man you ahve made really cool Map,I loved the first versinos and I am sure this will be even better!
Great work,thank you as always for the efforts! :)
I hooe you will enjoy it my friend, with the lag gone it surely should be better than the first xD. Thanks for the compiments my friend!
Amazing! thanks for this great work, it doesn't lag anymore.
Thanks man, I appreciate it :).
Very nice... one point I will make though. While it is a very nice battle, I felt there was not much strategy involved in actually winning, just people running at each other and fighting. Overall though, very well-thought out map :)
Heheh that was actually the point of this map xD. However the next maps will involve strategy a lot more.
Oh good! Those are my favorite types of mission maps.
you can do submod that we could recruit spearmen of Mirkwood?
I might write a tutorial on how to add them someday. But for now I'm focusing on other projects ;).
Ready the defences for the enemy draws near!!!
Fade to black and AUTODEFEAT at 14 seconds.
EDAIN 4.3
Player 1 bottom lothlorien no other player selected autodefeat at 14 seconds.I can hear gandalf say something while thranduil is giving his speech, something about being defeated or the likes.
I tried several different ways of getting this map past the opening.
I can play the map if I start at the top position but then Im just attacking enemy from behind (and getting my *** kicked cause i have no resources xD) and the opening of the map doesn't play correctly if i start at the top, also the objectives seems to be working properly when starting at the top and i even managed to win a game, all I did was kill kamul (was not easy) and like 20 seconds later the enemy retreated and game victory :P
I opened up WB for BFME2 cause i didn't see any real structures in the map other then tents so i thought maybe thats why? so I tried adding some structures 3 elf forges assigned to 3 different player 1 teams hunters,player 1,and another one not sure.. still auto-defeat I don't know what to do im still nub at WB .... :(
I hope you can look into this soon as I just played battle for lothlorien and it was great, worked fine.
Right, thank you for this information. I will try to fix it somewhere this week and update the download :).
