My idea is very big and new .. Is about a map but this map will be diffrent than any map ...i dont know if you can make this map but i believe if someone can this is you. So i start .my idea is to create the map of the whole middle earth but no make all the towns only the big fortress of middle earth in one map like isengard helms deep minas tirith erebor end more you know them i think .16 factions the number of players 16 ..if u ask how win? Take all castles . How do this ? You can make a flag somewhere in the fortress and when someone capture the flag thes castle his ... But is a very dificult to make but you provide the fans with real big fights on middle eath and sienges .. New strategies you can go siege but you care about defence so some troops stay back to defend the forttress if want you to ask some about ask

The max size of map is too small, and you're only allowed 8 players.

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Also the idea has more or less been done with the Fellowship map (or whatever it was called).

But basically the idea sounds like recreating War of the Ring mode in BFME1 but in mutliplayer.

There is a limit to 8 players for BFME and a map limit of 600sq, a limit to the terrain textures and to map passability (there's a limit to how many mountains you can have).

I hit all this limits except for the 8 players while making Trials of Malvegil a Middle-Earth map would cap out just making Gondor.

Imagine this man very good but if possible you are pro in modding if you want you can adapt my idia ... As you said for war of the ring no nothing like this like you play a normal map. If you cant you can make a map with 2 goods and 2 bads for example minas trith helms deep and morgoul and isengard

What about tha on top?

[Bashkuga]

How about you learn mapping, and you'll be able to make this map yourself . Maps like those are not easy to make, and I don't think any LW mapper has time to make it, since we got other projects to attend.

[ntinos]

Just an idea i said nothing more but is good idea think it a little... So maybe you can add some maps easy thing ?

[Irenë Hawnetyne]

I think this idea is impossible for anyone here to build, and at the least Worldbuilder and BFME would crap out trying to draw it.

[DIGI_Byte]

Cool Idea, but BFME simple can't handle it,

WAIT!

isn't this just war of the ring? it sounds just like crusader kings, only LOTRO and multiplayer

[ntinos]

Its just maps no war of the ring is just a map with famous strongholds instead of boring castles

[Bashkuga]

We understand, but the problem is a map like that is very time consuming to make, also believe me, as an experienced mapper, I can tell you that the map will not be so cool as you imagined.

[ntinos]

As you think. .... I just like my idea and i will support it o this if you make a map with famous fortess it will be cool

[ntinos]

will you make minas tiriths and the others castles like on kings of the west mod?

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Fortress maps are on the list to do but because of the workload they'll be a while off yet.

Although a certain fortress map is being worked on at the moment.

[ntinos]

thats nice.

[MattTheLegoman]

Yeah, I'm still going to be the Minas Morgul person. (Although, there's nothing I can work on now and it's probably not what Radspakr meant.) Set up like it should be, the Tower of Magic is the hardest castle design to attack.
