Last Alliance - Download, Information and General Discussion

[Sara Temer]

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them,
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

Last Alliance: TW is total conversion of Shogun 2. This mod base on stories from Tolkien's books, concretely on end of Second Age when Elves and Númenoreans fought against Sauron - many years before events from "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings". The goal of the mod is changing most aspects of the game: models, units, campaign map, ui, music, battlemaps, etc. This still WIP, but is avaiable alpha with playable campaign ^^ In final version will be two campaigns: Akallabêth and Last Alliance War.

You can find mod also on: MODDB, Discord, totalrtsmods

[Sara Temer]

Thanks ^^

Awesome and a very good idea to start with a "Teaser".
May I suggest you keep this small campaign as an appetizer and prologue even when the "main thing" arrives (which will probably take a few years...)

If I may, how did you deal with Realm Divide in this campaign?

Would it be possible to "enlarge" the "mini" campaign map a bit and perhaps add a few more provinces? An island of 400-800 miles across is a damn big place... it is probably double the size of Japan.

+rep and I hope you find a lot more patrons as this work is awesome.
S2TW is the most moddable total war title in existence but how much can be done with it, is often overshadowed.

[Sara Temer]

To be honest, in future will be two grand campaign in mod (Akallabeth and Last Alliance), because I have plan to expand this mini-campaign in updates. I mean e.g. when I will prepare Lindon army and building - mini-campaign receive Lindon territory
About Realm Divide - I only changed requirements that are now unachievable
And no, I can't enlarge Numenor Island because would be to big relative to Middle-Earth (when I will add Middle-Earth on map). Campaign map has resticted size (I'm trying take off this restiction, but I didn't do it yet )

Oh, you plan to "include" this as is in the main campaign once it's done?
Wouldn't it be possible to have two separate maps? One that is just a big numenor island, with more provinces etc (i.e. like Japan in S2TW) and a different campaign map which has a small numenor with perhaps 7-10 provinces and the rest of the middle earth?

[Sara Temer]

Creating one campaign map is very much work, and for this reason I decided make both campaign in the same map scale. In future in mini-campaign will be also Lindon, Enedwaith, Harad and other lands. And when I will have units for all (or most) factions I will just remove Numenor from map (because when was Last Alliance War Numenor doesn't exist) and I will change start situation for Last Alliance War

[alhoon]

Very well, thank you for all the effort.

How do we use this mod? The hotfix goes first?

[Sara Temer]

Install version 0.1.0 from first download link and next install hotfix on it

[alhoon]

The game has a learning curve. I would say it is closer to NTW than S2TW.

Looks great. Your able to mod the campaign map? question can you mod units into creatures like tools ents etc? I might have to get shogun 2 if this mod completes.
