Preview: Osgiliath

[King Kong]

After a little absence on the twc, welcome all back with my last settlement for Third Age 3.0.
The former most glorious city in Middle-earth took a little more time than expected, so I hope you enjoy it.

Long long ago, there had been a great city....

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

...which became a place of ruins and a city of ghosts.....

P.S.: somehow I felt the need not to log on the twc until Osgiliath was finished, so I apologize for not answering any important questions or pms, but I'll try to catch up on eveything asap...

p.S2: I couldn't take the screenshots in a correct resolution so I had to resize and scale them, which lead to a slightly worse look than in-game.


And once again, a huge thanks for wilddog and makanyane for the making the incredible IWTE which made all this possible. Thanks a lot guys!!

[Falco]

O M G!

Can't wait till next version is released!!

[B-DizL]

YOWZA!

Very impressive sir + rep

[Oznerol]

Just impresive, I just love the old ruins and remmanants from the old glorious city...The broken Stars Dome is just perfect. I think the architecture and the amount of details are just breath-taking, sometimes I thougth I was seeing the ruins of a real decayed palatine city, like a destroyed Aachen or a colapsing Constantinople.

Thanks for doing things like this King Kong...

[Dutch-Balrog]

Just WOW..... WOOOWW. Kingkong, you and your team are the greatest modders ever for M2TW!
No need to apologize for being absence, the TATW forum members always help eachother out as good as possible.
But is it 1 big city now or is it still devided into two cities?
Anyway GREAT work, maybe after all i won't be too addicted to BF3.

Thanks a lot for your words guys.

Good to know that.
And yes, I should have mentioned that Osgiliath is still two cities on campaign and battle map. The West and East side work as completely own cities on the battle map.

Thanks a lot for words guys.

Wow, just wow. That sounds like it will be a TON of fun to play. I can already think of some nice strategies for that!

[Reeth Caldarson]

Your work is amazing and it is still a 1000times better than all I was expecting

I was about to ask you that, hehe. Thanks for answering. Hey great preview! Osgiliath is the settlement where I fight the most when playing as Gondor. It is the coolest addition to the mod cause it is probably the custom settlement I will see the most. Another question: the city has no walls, right?

After reading this, a question has automatically appeared in my head:

In the actual version, if you have a battle between E. Osgiliath and W. Osgiliath, the battlemap is just a custom river with the typical bridge over it. So... has this changed with the Osgiliaht custom Settment? I mean: will we be able to battle on the bridges which connect the two sides of the city?
