I no longer own a copy of BFME II and am giving up on this map. I am sure it's not completed, but I do not wish to work on it any longer. Anyone who wants to can take over this map, but I give Scryer first dibs because of his continued advice on this map. Attached is my most recent and final revision. Thank you and goodbye.

To select a CAH for Rohan:

This is, I guess, technically a cheat, but it is a way to get around any faction that does not have a CAH option from the skirmish menu. First, select the faction you want to play as. Then, select the CAH drop down menu and click on any greyed-out hero. It won't do anything, but that's OK. With the drop-down still open, type the first letter of the hero's name on the keyboard, and the hero's greyed-out name will appear selected as your CAH and will be playable in-game. If it selects a different hero, it is because that other hero's name starts with the same letter as the one you desire. Try the procedure again, and this time it will select the next hero with the same first letter (in alphabetical order). Continue this until you get the hero you want. For example: I want to play as Isildur, and I have a CAH named Isuldur and one named Imrahil. I will open the drop down, click any hero's name, then type "I" on the keyboard (without the quotes). It will select Imrahil. I then open the drop down again, click any hero's name, then type "I" again, and it will select Isildur. Happy playing, Windrider.

Only thing I really noticed other than what has been said was that no create a hero can be chosen (other than random) as if it were neither good nor evil. I seem to remember Rohan doing this to in 1.04, but I havent tried them with the BETA.

That is correct. Rohan and Evil Men will not be able to have a CaH - it is a problem with EA only allowing 8 specific factions having CaH. I'm trying to come up with a way to balance that out. Rohan is the only heroes with leadership for heroes, and EvilMen is a faction with two sub-factions that can work together.

I wish there were a way to get the to work together, but I've found nothing so far.

Alright, here is the latest version of the Bree-land map! Am I on 1.4 now?...I lost count. Retextured and reforested, this map is better than ever! No more WB roads - all road patterns are now textures. Look for my reference to Laurelin and Telperion from the book Silmarillion in the top-right corner of the map. Enjoy!
