I've always wanted to make a map like this. This map represents Middle-Earth. Obviously.
Teams are YC+OS, BH+GS, BD+AB, and GE+BM. Of course, alliances are in order :)

Black Hole has many infantry (orcs) and mechs (trolls) at start, and will get more
properties than the others at start. It also has two bombers (ringwraiths). Use them well,
you can't build more.

Orang Star has a Rocket on its HQ. This Rocket is Gandalf. Fear him. It has more
entrenched soldiers than YC's faster Infantry (cavalry).

GS is Isengard. Yes, it got destroyed. It hasn't in this world. It's still got its army of
orcs ready to go, and has paved over a wide stretch of river in front of it.

AB is Rhun. It's decent, and it has the Rhun Sea. The Infantry and two Recons are its army
of soldiers and Oliphaunts.

BM is the Hobbits. They start with an artillery because Hobbits are good at throwing stuff.

BD is the Dwarves. They have two Mechs to synmbolize the sturdiness of Dwarven warriors,
and an Infantry to symbolize the panzies of the Dwarven warriors.

GE is the Elves. They have a lander already in thier port, because they need it to get to
the Valar. They're entrenched in woods, making their territory easily defendable. Speaking
of the Valar, they've sent a bomb. They were shortsighted, though, and put it way far away
from the Elves. It can still work, but better make it count...

How I made this map: First, I made a map of middle-earth. Then, realizing it was far to
complicated, I wiped it and made another map of middle-earth. Then I changed it to make it
playable.

Tell me if it's lacking in any way. Enjoy!

EDIT: I forgot to mention. Those two JS soldiers over there? That's Frodo and Sam. :)

Sooo...when do we start?

Grit is too strong here. Hachi likely also too strong. I have my bet on GE and BM. AB and BD
are about as good as dead. BH and GS have a shot if GS survives.

Original

Elves and Hobbits win though...

Who rated a 4? Why?
sirfuxalot (07/14/2006 11:23pm):
Cause it's not pretty and you should definitley expand the size to make it look more like
middle earth. I dont' see it right now. It wasn't me who rated it though.

hmm, I was sure I saw another map that looked alot like this one already, I forgot what it
was called though.
