what do i do?

how do we add maps we created in age of empies steam

@piggywiggly when hosting/creating a game (single or multiplayer, I recommend multiplayer for the best experience). At the top right, game, select scenario. You should then see the lord of the ring map you subscribed to. Then make sure the settings are "normal" or "standard". The description is on this page just under the subscribe button. Tells you which civs and teams to pick.

i have subscribed and it is in my workshop. create a game? you mean multiplayer? and what description ??

@pigglywiggly104 First you subscribe. Then you create a game. The map should be under the scenarios. Please make sure you have all the settings correct (see description). The objectives and quests are all listed in the objectives/hint/scout tabs in game. This plays like a random map with premade bases. Completing quests yields a lot of bonuses.

how do i play this mod?

Gondor must get up to castle age. Only then can you move the heroes out of rivendell

How do you get the fellowship to form and move them out of rivendell ? The blue units II get as P1 just stay there because the ally gate never opens.

Ok.

@Eagle942. If you want to change being p1, you'll have to redo every trigger for every player you switched and there's a lot. If you can find someone else to host it, you can pick another player without making changes to the map.

Ok, so here's the thing. Whenevr I try to play a player in any scenario other than P1, it doesn't work. This started happening about less than a year ago after some update. And the reason I asked that question earlier is because I want to edit the scenario and creat several scenarios, each one with a different player as P1. But I'm so worried that I'm going to screw the triggers up really bad. So do you think you could do that and then send me the scenarios? And if this is too much to ask, I'm sorry.

I meant that i don't have the AK expansion so i don't have your AK version

Ok. Thanks. I do not have the AK expansion yet but i like this and the FE version

@Eagle942 Thank you! Have you seen my newer version for AK? To answer your questions, look at triggers. One of the many effects you can do is to change names, health on any unit you choose.

Hey man. I love this scenario and how it's set up. I do have a question. How were you able to change the names on the people and buildings and how were you able to change the healths on the people and places?

is there any way to alter the scenario?

I want to send the african kingdoms expansion for update this map. Please add me

Love the map, Sirak! Is there any way to make the first player (the host of the game) a faction other than Gondor?

Ok solved, actually that was another map...never mind me...

I encountered some problems, the faction is not what it is supposed to be. I chose P1 teuton but it gives me dwarves, while I am supposed to be Gondor. While the real Gondor becomes Mordor...all factions are messed up, may I know what's the problem?

Could you make a map of Middle Earth and the undying lands and of Dark land?

In my last 3 games, find it quite hard to be the good guys.

aweosome

@UltimationRogue, I've actually thought about it but I don't think there are enough people on the Forgotten version to justify redoing the map for a slightly bigger version. The extra civ, units and buildings would be nice though.

You could make a Forgotten version of the map, but unfortunately you would have to remake the entire map to make it bigger, and many people wouldn't be able to use it because it requires a DLC. So I think making a Forgotten version is out of the question.

@UltimationRogue Haha I get what you're saying. Sadly, this is AoE2 and not an actual LOTR game. We have to deal with what the game provides. Ideally I would have liked a bigger map amongst other things.

Well I do seem to understand what you're saying, though. I think what bugged me most was the architecture. Other than that, yeah, I guess I agree with you.

@UltimationRogue. In this map, I found that balance-wise elves should be japs. Japs will get very good archer lines, and are a better overall civ than brits. There are ways to get the longbows as japs inside the game. Elves are not only reknown for their bowmen but also their swordmans which I thought the Japanses reflected both properly. You're of course free to disagree with everything I've just said. Triggers in this map are however made for a jap player.

Sirak, I argued with someone for maybe 10 minutes as to why elves are Japanese. Elves specialized with bows, which Britons are perfect for. Japs may get weapon speed but their architecture and techs don't match up at all.
Shouldn't the Elves be Britons instead?

Seems Legit...

MAP AWESOME but no player..

looks cool

This looks like fun.

@ Tursuficisi This map is a giant map size, the biggest there in for AoE 2 HD. I do not have access to the ludiKRIS map size from FE in HD.

not bad but if u wanna do this map your map need to be bigger

great job i would say

ba

Well, he's not really wrong. Advertising your own creation on the back of someone else's is what I'd characterize as an asshole.

Woah Brandon, looks like we have an keyboard warrior over here! Throwing around insults for no reason.

It'd be nice to get it without the buildings.

Fun to play, but its not that accuate.

343 Guiltyspark you're an asshole

@Murvaidavid, sadly the map was designed for multiplayers, unless you'd like to play as Gondor. The civs are set with the player number at the start of the game. The triggers in place don't take into account the player colour. Sorry.

Cool but I made a much larger and more accurate version. I will post it soon.

Great job, but I can only play as Gondor...:( I set all the civs to "Either" in editor and played as Harad. When I destroyed Minas Tirith, I got sudden death...:((((( The map is no fun if u can only play as 1 civ. Can sth be done about this?

Awoesome!!
