THE STORY:

The Dread Shadowmage, Raselas, has gathered an army to destroy what remains of the ancient Three Wills, and conquer all who oppose him. New heroes will rise and stand against the forces of darkness, to restore the sanctity of the old and ensure peace to the lands of good.


Play solo or with friends online using three Create-A-Heroes plus three completely new heroes that will join you as your journey progresses. Complete the side quests you are given to obtain valuable experience and loot, which you can later spend at the shops to buy powerful magical items.
Face enemies you have never seen before and explore a completely new universe, far from the tales of middle earth.

Features:
- Play solo and control all heroes, or up to three players coop for the best adventuring experience.
- Classic RPG elements: Experience the feel of the old classics while enjoying the epicness that only bfme2 can provide!
- Completely revamped CaH abilities: Pretty much all abilities and spells have been changed to make them all useful. While some abilities have been made stronger (Axethrow, Shield Bash, Lightblast, Arrow Storm, etc.) some others are not as overpowered as before (Whirlwind, Coerce/convert, the Heal glitch, etc.)
- 8 Boss fights that will take the most of your combat skill
- Item shops!
- Play the full version or beat each part separately (more suited for online play)
- No mods! This map can be played online like any other with no need for additional downloads (Read Notes for Multiplayer below)

Please remember to read the map instructions before you play.

Map Installation
Extract the .rar files to your maps directory.
If using windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\My Battle for Middle-earth(tm) II Files\Maps
If using windows 7+: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\My Battle for Middle-earth(tm) II Files\Maps

Remember you will only be able to see this folder if you can view HIDDEN files. Make sure, otherwise you will not see the folder.

Notes for Multiplayer and Online Play:
If playing online, make sure the player under the host is a Brutal CPU to avoid the map transfer bug.
Also, to prevent OUT-OF-SYNC errors, if playing on EA's servers make sure everyone RESTARTS their game BEFORE playing the map. You may also need to restart after playing.

The map is not tested for The Rise of the Witch King expansion. It *may* work but it's recommended that you just use BFME2.

Will this work for Rise of the Witch King? How do you connect to the Hamachi Game Network? Is it the one you automatically connect to?

Thx fore the tip but it still dont work. I dont know wts wrong but its wird

Crusard - Friday March 5, 2010 - 16:52

You must install the latest official patch (1.06) for BFME2.

Hello,
Um Crusard... I was wondering if i could help you with your next map.
I've been looking for someone like you for a while. Someone who's a good mapper/coder or whatever who would work with me to develop maps like this one. I've created several maps like this before but never of such scale. I find it hard to come up with original ideas or things that haven't ever been done before. But i see you have no problems with that though. Im a very talented codder and mapper. I hate scripting though. I can do them just fine but it's just to boring for me. But i can do anything and everything with .ini and .str files.
So anyway... I figure we could pump out maps like this twice as fast and twice as good with both of us working togeather. So let me know what you think...

Looks amazing. Very beautiful map.

Ways to improve your map, and the cliffs are ok, but that were just the points which I thought they weren't on the same quality as the other parts ;).

Crusard - Tuesday January 5, 2010 - 12:57

Hmmm cliffs?
What does points of improvement mean? :P
