Now that I'm finally done with it, I'll dare to present this latest (and most probably last) work of mine to you, even if viewing the numerous amount of outstanding maps here in the forums makes me feel rather mediocre about my own mapping skills.

I must give credit to the Edain mod team at this point, since without using some of their assets (especially the modified Cirith Ungol towers) this would have been impossible to do for me.

 

This was of old Tol Sirion, a beautiful home of the Noldor in Beleriand and residence of Finrod. After Dagor Bragollach, it was captured by Sauron and became a place of horror, infamously known as Tol-in-Gaurhoth, the Isle of Werewolves.

That looks very good! My only complaint is that the inside of the fortress is a bit empty. Perhaps some orc-camps would make it a bit more lively. Apart from that it looks awesome.

Thanks for appreciating. :)

 

Concerning the interior part, there isn't too much room left once the AI starts to build it's bases. Therefore and in order to avoid choke points in the late game, I decided to make it that spacious.

But you've got a point there, maybe I can find some suitable gaps.

 

And yes, that bridge was quite a puzzle. :grin:
