Beserk and I have started our War of the Realm II project, based on JBV3737's War fo the Realms.

Water, ice, stone, and fire have begun a massive war to see who is the domonant realm. Each realm has it's own unique units, strongholds, and economy types. Massive wars, tremendouse power, it's all in this map.

The terain also is a beutiful site to glare at. Each realm has it's own beutifuly crafted and unique terain types. The terain also beifits for the defence of each realm and it's economy type.

Realm Introductions

Water Realm:
The Peaceful and Natural Realm. The warriors of this Realm Rely on their faith in nature to give them magic and skill. Their best qualities lie in Magic and Defence.

Teramont:
A massive ent born from the purest of waters. It's roots say to go so deep into the earth, that it can control anything born from it. Since it has roots so mighty, Teremont has the power to animate and control water.

Video trailer for the Water realm

Earth Realm:
The Strong and Brave Realm. The warriors of this realm are strong in armor and blade, as not only do they worship the strength of stone, but the destruction of stone. Their best qualites lie in Attack and Armor.

Jeranai:
Created by a mysterriouse and dark ritual that animated stones into a beast shapped like a giant man. It is not only of great phisical capabilities, but it has a deep magic that can control all stone creations. Even though it rules the earth realm, it has the mind of a beast. The stones that create Jeranai can even withstand the greatest of attacks.

Ice Realm:
The Twisted and Skilled Realm. The Warriors of this Realm are dedicated to the frozen lands and have many skills using ice. Their Best Qualites are variously mixed combat & Defence

Kore-Rock:
Said in ancient texts, when a beast of foul burdens would mourn over the death of winter, they would have the power to restore the frozen season, and rule the icy paradox. (That actualy came from the Book of Lost Tales Part 2) Kore-Rock is the foul lord of winter who's heart is so cold, it can even freeze the souls of the living.

Fire Realm:
The Dark and Furiouse Realm. The warriors of this realm are chaotic and deadly using the power of fire to kil their targets. Their best qualites are Brute Force and large hoards.

Mechanica:
The master of the tormented and the flames. Unlike normal Balrogs, this goddly beast has a mind of a tyranic king. It was spewed out of the void itself because of it's umimaginable power. Mechanica has the power to overcome the greatest of powers with his firey scorn, but majorly weak against the magics.

I named the units according to the theam of their realms. Remember, if you can think of better names for any of them, feel free to say so.

(every unit listed above will be editted in at least 1 way, shape or form)
(the units above are the full unit lists)

(Wombat stated the units and I named them just in case you were wondering)

The Building System
Each Realm will have building foundations where you can build military and defence structures. But for the resorce structures, each realm's citidel has the power to summon a resorce structure in any of their own realm or dead realm region. The cost for each resorce structure is 500 and is a bit different and better than normal resorce structures.

40% complete

this forum isn't really for advertising, you'd better put your map on the site:
http://www.the3rdage...e=3&category=11

[Pasidon]

Oh sorry. I figured people posted map projects in the World Builder section.

[Bart]

well that's where i'd put if it if there wasn't a site...but there is

[Pasidon]

Well, I am sort of lazy with these ads, but I'll post everything from Istari to here so it'll be perfectly legal.

[Pasidon]

Just a few screen shots I took very early of productions. The lands look 10x better tha these now.



Water Realm Water fall (One of them at least)



The ice moat and mechanical walls of the Ice Realm.

-What I love about these walls is that the rotating gears at each side of the gates is destroyed when the gate that are located next to is destroyed.



The walls of the Water Realm



The lava works of the Fire Realm



The barren wastes of the Earth Realm



Where the Realms meet



The black, tainted walls of the fire realm.

I got board and started some more texturing. I decided to have a cool terain feature in each realm that benifits the player.

Here is the water realm's canopy. Since they have the the best archers, they have this very high canopy that can be climbed up with the stairs. It has a good range and perfect for inner base defence, and a sanctary for archers.

[Pasidon]

Alright, Newly made water realm units. Harder to make then they look, on some.


These are Spell Blades. They Are the Elite Units of the Water Realm. They start with thunder and water arrows, and can also switch to a blade weapon infused with a powerful magic.





The Order of the White Staff.

A religiouse order that has an arsinal of magics.

Powers:
-Wizerd Blast
-Devine Gust
-Teleport
-Thunder Break





Thunder Break



Cloud Ruler

The most powerful eagles that control the skys with it's powerful magic.

Power-
Wind Storm



Horsemen of Darmetra'

The advanced calvery unit that are skilled at trampeling their foes.



Peace Keepers

The helmed archers that are known to be very fast shots with their massive bows.

Power:
Devine Suroundings (Cloak)



Cloud Warriors

The advanced melee unit of the Water Realm that is trained with a unique fighting style.



Horned Saints

The advanced water realm pike infantry. It has been said these powerful units are not human, but angels, rejected from the heavens.



This is what we got to turn out for the water Realm fortress, so far. Big... tree with an orb of water above it, like I promised.

Teramont, Roots of the Waters



The massive tree with the power to devistate the lands with raging waters. Even though it appears to be an ent, it is a much more vengeful and rage filled creature that hates all who opposes nature.

Powers-
-The 3,000 Seas
-March of the Mad Grove

Frost Dragons

These are minature sized dragons that breath frost on it's enemys. Like a regular dragon, they have the relocate ability that makes them fly to a nearby location on the map. They are very good at killing infantry and Archers, but weak against pikes.



Inner Ice Realm retextured to perfection.



Madborn Trolls



These trolls are raised in harsh and tormenting enviroments. They are packed with armor and heavy weapons and are known to be 'Iron Clad Troll Kings' because of their dominance over all other trolls. Due to their beserk rage, they rush and rampage over the enemy, smashig them. They also have brute strength used to smash the enemy with their heavy weapons. These trolls are a mighty force.

The Legions of the Ice Realm


Here are all the unit hoards of the Ice Realm. As we know of...


Alright, more updates to come soon, so stick around.

[witchking]

cool

[Downfall]

very nicely done so far Pasidon and Istari-Productions team.

Especially like the water orb over the white tree.

[Bart]

maybe at the place where the realms meet, instead of just merging the textures, put a golden land

[JEV3]

Or maybe make it a little warped... Like try to make it not look too out of place, but just a little, unworldly. I really like the way its looking so far. Can't wait to try it!

[Eonwe]

This looks very cool! Its for ROTWK right. Hope to see more screenshots as this map progresses. Its a map right? Where can I find War of the Realms #1

Edited by Lord of the Grunts, 31 July 2007 - 02:52 AM.

[Pasidon]

Yea, ROTWK map. And you can get JBV's War of the Realms off of BFME Heaven.

Simular problems that JBV and I have had are huge ini files. I had to cut a lot of ideas out, like blood from units when damaged and spell books. Still going to have a ton of stuff in it.

[witchking]

oh i cannot play it then

[Eonwe]

Think you would be so kind enough to post a link?

[witchking]

*sigh* i cannot play thia map because i have bfm2 not rowk

any way heres the link to the first war of the realms
link to war of the realms 1

Edited by witchking, 31 July 2007 - 09:01 PM.

[Eonwe]

Does JBV's map have the 4 factions you have? His is for BFME 1 right?

[The Best Guest]

Looks Great keep up the good work

[Pasidon]

Does JBV's map have the 4 factions you have? His is for BFME 1 right?

J's War of the Realm has 8 factions. Synchs like quazy. And no, it's for BFME II, and it can also be played with ROTWK.
