I guess it is time that this map comes out of hiding. Although you all probably knew about it anyway.

Goblin Town for S.E.E. - D.C.

Qm4viIul.png

 

Information

What you see here is the basic layout and you should be able to get a good idea on what will be included in this map. 3 players, wide walkways, multiple paths, extreme height differences, Gollum's cave, the Front Porch and custom assets. A lot of the custom assets will be stalactites and stalagmites that have not been created yet.

 

More images to come after the Sabbath, when I have some time to work on the terrain more and the scaffolding.

I used a similar image to 3d model the center pillar.

The grey stuff is invisible terrain, IIRC.

I like the render on its own, actually. Never used blender before.

I like it, but how much space will there be to build resource structures? I think on these scenery maps you should start with extra CP and money.

There is plenty of space to build stuff in the caverns that the players start out in. Nevertheless, expanding beyond normal base size is a different issue as you can't build buildings, for example the Gondor Barracks or even the Goblin Cave, on the platforms and scaffolding that make up Goblin Town.

And trust me your precious time doesn't need the horrors that a neverending pinch point and max command points can create. =O

Good point, this will be a great map for fighting on!!! I think towers will be of use here!!!

Yikes, towers and siege weapons could probably be used to hold out a cavern indefinitely. =O

 

Here are some more pictures of the two new rocks that will be filling up the back spaces of the map, so that the regular view angle is still unobstructed.
