@BigBeardThoRn Thanks! :D

@Dwfc775 , very happy you enjoyed it makes the work I put into it feel very rewarding! as for your question about how to make npcs fight one another. look in the charchter creator . there you should be able to set what attack moves your npc has and what team he is on (hostile or friendly)

First, I love the map, best one ever. Second, how did you make the npcs fight each other?

does anyone know why 174 worlds appeared on my account?

@Scuba I am amazed you tried it given the game had a lack of updates. thank you for enjoying it really appriciate it !

my lord amazing!

@Kylord This one is played trough the game RPG World - Action RPG Maker - when inside the game there should be some portals that let you pick community made maps

how do you play steam maps?

looks awesome!

Thank you for enjoying it Partygeit, I do hope the game will get some optimalization so truely big things can be made!

Truly a wonderful map. Shame the current engine can't handle it. Hope they improve the optimalization

@Vind Decaid Thank you so much for your comment!

Had a pretty good time going through this one. Thanks for sharing this.

@TheHeroOfTimeAndSpace Thank you very much for that comment! it puts a big smile on my face knowing you enjoyed it!

Awesome map! Not only were the fights with the orcs amazing, but everything else looked really beautiful as well. Well done BigBeardthoRn. :)

@Baron I'd love to hear your thoughts when your finished with it

I do wonder if myworld can get in trouble for us doing copyrighted content, and if yes, I wonder if putting some sort of disclaimer and very slight name adjustment might absolve them. That said, I love Lord of the Rings and am excited to play this. Subscribed!

I did fight the orcs, completed the quest and went through the portal to the showdown. It's the purple/wood portal there that takes you back round again,(and you don't have to fight anyone to do it).
I figure the 'h' not working thing is a workshop problem.

I just played again BBT and went the other way. Met a man who wanted some helmets and another man who offered me a horse, (which I couldn't find). But now I know how it should work :) just my old eyes not spotting the obvious.

It's a shame we cannot quest across worlds else Gandalf could quest you to save the city. I really liked it, (though I have not yet learned the trick of defeating that particular boss - gets me every time - hence the need for the 'h' key ;-))

@Benjiboy

Hmmmm weird, for the second act where you go towards the castle there is supposed to be a portal to take you up to a different scene after you fight the orcs,

As for the correct way, you go up towards the second ring of the city walk from left to right where the 2 guards are giving you quests. after you killed gotmog you can return to the guard and the portal should open to the final act. maybe because of the hubworld bug I had the horse is gone where your supposed to make a small jump?

as for the bug I never had that problem localy

Played it.
Pro's:
Great scene setting with the running battles. Good CC's. Good combat ramping.
Cons:
I'm sure it's my failing but I couldn't find the correct way to the upper city and had to shin up the walls.
I cannot press 'h' to return to the hub. The dialogue comes up but doesn't do anything, (I've reported it as a bug. Does it do that to you when you play it locally?).
The gate at what I guess is the final showdown should prehaps be locked until 'killed all enemies', and should it be 'End of Game?' rather than play again?

Cheers benji!

It looks good. I'll give it a go :)
