This is a remade version of NordicSoldier's "Movie Map". I'd like to say that I remade this map not because it wasn't enjoyable to play but because it was so different, fun and just generally great that it warranted a visual update so that the rest of it can be appreciated in its entirety.

The map features several locations in the following order:

1:Moria - Balins Tomb, Dwarodwelf (tiny), Khazad-dûm
2:EastGate
3:Amon-Hen
4:Rohan
5:Fangorn
6:Helms Deep
7:Isengard
8:Ithilien
9:Paths of the Dead
10:Minas Tirith
11:Shelob's Lair
12:Cirith Ungol
13:The Black Gate
14:Mount Doom

There are a bunch of fancy cinematics throughout the level, but don't worry in comparison to the size of the map they don't slow you down or cause de-synch errors (provided your computer isn't super slow).

Each of the "Iconic" locations (Helms Deep e.t.c) contain a large scale battle each of which requires constant monitoring to ensure victory, communication within teams is important in this regard. Each battle also has a huge amount of audio (and music) to make each battle feel more like that of the films.

There are two versions of the map included, the multiplayer version & the singleplayer version. Both are identical, other than the cinematics which are more fancy in the singleplayer as there's no chance of a de-synch error.

Now I've got some important notes that you should read for your benefit:

1:If you already have a copy of the map you should delete it as currently Modb is the only location with an up-to date copy, older copies have de-synch errors.
2:If you're going to play online but have just previously played a map containing a map.ini, please restart your game to minimize risk off errors.
3:Single Player should be played in patch 1.03 as patch 1.05 speeds up the timing of scripts making things happen to quickly (cinematics are a bit weird when sped up).
4:If you don't now how to install/remove maps please look at this tutorial - http://www.the3rdage.net/item-168?addview
5:Any questions please PM me here
6:I'd recommend playing the map on the 3rd age online as the server runs the map better, gameranger can lag a lot more often.

EDIT 02/02/2014: I've re-uploaded the map because the previous multiplayer version didn't work, I've removed certain cinematics and now it appears to run fine.
