The Battle of the Last Alliance v 1.0 NEW HOTFIX

[Elrond123]

Since the battle of the last alliance was so far the only battle shown in LOTR, that had no custom battle, I decided to make one.

features in 1.0:

5 playable Factions: Gondor, Arnor/Eriador, High Elves, Mordor, Harad
Mount Doom and Black Gate

planned features in 1.1:

fix bug, that causes Elendil and Isildur to have no Names( see last pic)(done)
Move Mount doom behind the Orks
Give good factions less exp. but more units

optional features in 1.1

Dwarves as playable faction
Gil-Galad as General, instead of Elrond
Skripted AI
Changes to Mount Doom, and/or the black Gate
Red Sky


Critisism is welcome, but remember, that this is my first custom Battle, and that I changed Geography and History of the battle a little.

Here are some pics:







Thanks to KingTheoden1, I solved the problem with the names.

That looks pretty sweet.

Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question, but did you mod that Black Gate battle map yourself?

[Elrond123]

Thanks.

And yes, I made the map entirely by myself with the battle editor

Wow, nice work! For those of us who can't fire this up until they get home from work, post a few more screenshots of your Black Gate work.

thanks, but to be honest it wasnt my Idea to model it with terrain, I just saw someone else do it and copied it. I sadly dont know who did it anymore.

Here you go:






One question(to all):
Which of the optional features should I make, and which not? Im reliying on your opinions!

You should definitely add some Dwarves of Moria since they were present at the battle.

EDIT- oh and when you do this do you mean the battle of Dagorlad? there were silvan elves present there too. try reading the wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._Last_Alliance

I actually read the article. The battle is meant to be a mixture of the battle shown in the movie and all three major battles of the War in the lore(Battle of Dagorland, Black Gate, and the one infront of Barad-Dur.

And adding both of the factions, is impossible, because there are only 8 armies possible, and I have 7 already( and I really dont want to delete a Mordor Army)

edit: In the battle of Dagorland there were only a few dwaeryes, and they were fightin on both sides, that was the reason I didnt add them, not because I just saw the movies, or dont know the Lore.

use the submod "The Second age" it has all elves as one and numenor is its own faction.

Would it be compitable with the "vanilla" If I do that?( sry, if its a stupid question)

Yes i think it is

[The Doge of Venice]

can you not get rid of Harad? were there really that many there? they are barely mentioned in the list of armies present, it only says Mordor, Black numenoreans, allies. Which may mean these allies of Mordor didn't play a large role.

Thats why I only gave them a half-stack.

(If somebody dosnt understand: Harad symbolises all evil Humans)

[Brego]

OMG, the black gate looks awesome

+rep!

[zorro59]

Is there any sauron???

[Elrond123]
