random resources? Last time I took the time to loadip a map, the middle east was all grassland. :(

and now I become Sauron.

Tiny map size, but really good quality.

What's the map size?

map size?

are there resources??

um what is the max size?

really nice map!

Cool map, really enjoyed it, specially with middle earth folks mod ;)

Add the dead marshes

My bad, I couldn't see them,....sorry!! :-)

minipuerto, yes, of course there are! I tried to place them as accurately as possible on a hexmap with this scale.

are there any rivers?

Nice work.

except this one is more accurate :))

is it normal for you to spawn and then 12 turns in it says you won without meeting anyone and there were three other ais that spawned?

IM JUST KIDDING THIS IS GREAT

Penguit, I know, right? :D

only like the 10th middle earth map,

The part about passage through the west side of Mordor.

good game

Great!

Mole, I dunno how to fix it, but the barb setting is on "aggressive." That's why they respawn so quickly and go after player improvements.

Can you add some links for Middle Earth races like Elves, Hobbits, Orc, Urukhai (or however you spell it.), Dwarves and that kind of stuff. thx.

Well, again I apologize... I'll accept that a problem with the game itself. Best thing to do might be to disable barbs all together then. Great map btw.

Mole, people have been having that issue on random maps since G&K. I seriously can't do anything about it. I'm sorry it keeps happening to you.

btw there IS something odd going on with the barbs on this map, I'm pretty sure... Playing on Prince difficulty, there were LOTS of barbs just massed together at the northern most part of the map... Mostly archers, raging barbs is off. Never seen anything like that in regular games, even with raging barbs turned on.

awesome thx

how do u get the map online

taul press the subscribe button

I want to know how to download this can anyone tell me how?

i´ve subscribed, steam shows the map download, but i can´t find it anywhere. Followed the instructions that rbaldwin3 wrote and nothing. What else can i do?

awsome!

no, i'm just asking for a small one tile change not something as unreasonable as a new set of civs.

@theodamus Yeah, and make a morodor civ too. give them sauron as their UU and make it replace the Giant Death Robots give it a strength of 200 too :D the name can be sauron (with ring)

can we get a one tile gap in mountains around mordor to simulate black gate?

@Marc ahh my mistake... Guess I just need to pump out more combat units.

I subscribed to the map and its not loading onto the game. What should I do?

who ever gets mordor is going to dominate

a super cool map!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Mole, I'll fix the mountain ruins, but barbarians are placed randomly by the game itself. I don't think I can do anything about that.

I like this map, but there's a bug where sometimes ruins are placed on top of mountains, which makes them impossible to explore. Also there are way too many barbs, you clear 1 or 2 camps and more spring up. They just swarm your first city and pillage all your improvements constantly.

The Mordor spot would be so over powered.

Fine with me. Hate to say how long it took me to figure that out. Some map mods work fine out-of-the-box, others need a little "help."

rbaldwin3, Thanks for explaining that for the few commenters who didn't know that. Couldn't have put it better myself. I borrowed it for the description, if you're okay with that.

@NazgulRiderz Do you mean Minas Morgul/Minas Ithil?

Go to C:\Users\->Your Name<-\Documents\my games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS\Middle Earth). Open the folder. There should be two (2) files. COPY Middle Earth.Civ5Map to C:\Users\->Your Name<-\Documents\my games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\Maps. Collapse the directory tree; launch Steam; launch Civ 5 from the Steam Library. The Middle Earth Map should show up when you open the drop down menu for the world/maps.

good mod

cool

FWI you might want to add inus morgals passageway from mordor out
