    Wow, that's awesome! I really missed realistic water bodies in vanilla.
    I would rather have a memory that is fair but unfinished than one that goes on to a grievous end.

    Great!!!

    This is amazing!!!!

    Also the deadly part looks really cool (and I'm not averse to sacrificing some units of orcs in order to witness these effect )

    Buhahahahahha AWESOME! These map will definetly be very fun to play (maybe unnerving when the units that ends up drowning are yours, but definetly funny!)

    It looks like the Dead Marshes will live up to their name.
    Between this and the (hopefully) late 2012 release of XCOM: Enemy Unknown it looks like my gaming hours will become very full.

    Nice, that's what swamps are all about. Fantastic work there on the custom FATW battle environments!

    I was wondering, if there will also be changes to the campaign map textures for DoM?

    Of course. The campaign map in DoM looks nothing like TNS, it's vastly improved in every aspect: textures, climate and ground type distribution, accuracy, detail...

    Tomorrow night or saturday - but only a few, we don't want to give away the whole map before release.

    I'm currently in a unit-skinning marathon now that I've got time again. I hope to preview some new units, soon.

    I guess its okay to preview that portion of the campaign map of Dominion of Men that you already know from the former releases of The Fourth Age: Total War (note that many strat map models are placeholders currently):

    Looks very nice, especially the dead marches-mordor border.

    Also I have the feeling mordor is a bit less a desolate place than it was in the previous editions (as in, a greener environment). Could be just me though.

    The area you are refering to (image 6) is Nurn south of the Plains of Gorgoroth. Nurn is actually quite fertile, and even served as a grain-chamber of sorts for Sauron during his reign in Mordor. The Plains of Gorgoroth and the surrounding Mountain ranges are pretty desolate, uninviting, dusty and gloomy, as they should be - both on campaign and on battle maps.

    Yeah, for some strange reason, in my mind the desert always ran up until the sea of nurnen (though, I can't think of anything in the lore to back that up really)

    But I remember your screenshot from the battle map in mordor, and it truly was desolate

    Thanks for the answer btw (and the screens of course)

    Disclaimer: the screens Eorl shows are a bit outdated, in that some things (region borders, settlement locations, river crossing, etc) have changed since.
