What about implenting lotro scenes to campaighn ?
It's will be good use for the CAH heroes (I think)

[Devon]

Doubtful

[Silindor-Blue-Wolfrayet]

something for the missions..you have gandalf in amon hen..and in Lorien..it would be nice..if the fangorn mission..including the three hunters meeting Gandalf after a long time for example..much worse you have boromir after amon hen who was meant to be dead..i know..i read somewhere in the forum..yeah you rewrite the books and the story how you want or something like that..but..could it be fixed??

I'd like to answer but I don't know what you just said.

[Dalf32]

we are not worrying about following the books exactly in the wotr campaign. this is instead meant to be more like the bfme1 campaign where it is all up to you. i.e. if you let boromir die, then he wont be in the rest of the campaign.
eventually there is a linear campaign planned (like bfme2 and rotwk) taht will follow the books more closely. this is a good ways off however.

[{IP} Aridor]

Well we are working more on the Linear then the non-linear right now. It is easier to map and code in my opinion.

[Dalf32]

hmm, i was not aware of this. good to know.
perhaps i should read through the mapping forums more often

[Uruk King]

If the Linear campaign is sticking closer to the books, would that mean that certain heroes would be killed off when there is a death mentioned, Like Boromir and Amon Hem and Theoden at Pellenor Fields

[Dalf32]

aye, thats what it means.

[{IP} Aridor]

Yep you'll essentially play the books from the LA through the Hobbit to the WotR

[lotrcrazy]

HMMMMMM i thnk da campaign could be better when u go to moria on campaign at strt couldnt it be like da movie when da watcher comes out of the water tht would be COOL to fight da watcher but make him powerfuller thn u hav to retreat
n he smashes da wall down ULTIMATE COOOLNES

And in da helms deep and amon hen missions could boromir and Haldir actually die like in da movies its very stupid to have Boromir at helms deep and at blak gate so plz take me ideas n thnk about em for ur campaign.

[{IRS}Athos]

In the non-linear campaign, everyone lives.

[Devon]

If you're able to keep them alive, yeah.

This was planned, and made, unfortunately when someone's computer crashed the map was lost.

If a hero dies in the non-linear campaign, you can always just respawn them at a fortress. For example: I played the Non-linear, lost the Caras Galadon mission while having Gandalf, Aragorn, and Legolas die before 'game over', then started the Rivendel mission, played a little, then spawned Gandalf, Aragorn, and Legolas at 'Elrond's House' and used them. I think that that needs to be addressed, it should be that if you lose a hero, you could, maybe, respawn him at a fortress on the level that they died, but not on other levels.
