Alright, got it. It's now my turn.

I'll try to have another portion done within a week.

Come on now, people, don't be afraid!  Anyone is more than welcome!

This is a great idea, and I hope we'll get much more makers for this to-be-awesome map!

I don't know if any would be interested by this idea, but, seeing that several people are working on same map, why not go for a multiplayer concept, where every mapmaker designs and scripts its own area. Then balance the whole thing and start testing who among you all will win over the others. If you eliminate commanders and henchmen (possibly experience system as well), the map can be fully playable in MP mode, so you can even one day play 7 players at once. As far as I remember, there is no such map atm.

In order to make the map equally be interesting in single, it is possible to give specific events to all players and disable "human", so all AI will have bonuses at start or during the game.

Hmm. This idea has potential to become some kind of epic XL map. If there were more people interested in this, I would participate on such map.

And I second GnollKing's post: it would be great to have some more people working on this map. It's a great way to learn some mapmaking and practical use of ERM, also it doesn't take as much of your time as it would take to create an original XL by yourself.

After a long time checking ERM Help, and testing my scripts, and fixing them to make everything work, my section is complete.

Grab it here

gnollking, it's your turn again.

Downloaded. Will try to do something in a week. However it might take longer, because of a lot of work waiting to be done.

Don't worry about it. I'm not expecting the map to be finished for at least several months. Take as long as you need, but, if you're going to be more than a week, post in here so I'll know.

Normally I would help out, but I unintentionally destroyed the previous community map due to lack of time dragging out the wait for my contribution , and since I have even less time now I don't want to repeat that. I could contribute a little to map design, but will not even try to write the storyline for it lest it happen again.

Don't worry about it. If you want to contribute, tell me, and I'll add you to the list.

And, if you hold up the map too much, it'll just pass on to the next person. For example, if Solitaire takes too long to reply, I'll just pass the map on to the next person.

I am sorry. I had too much work in RL and only had one evening for this map. I have almost done my section, but the ERM there needs some polishing, so I'm not uploading the map yet. I will finish it, and double-check everything tomorrow and upload.

EDIT: Okay. I'm done. I hope my addition is not too radical twist in the plot.. Some objects aren't scripted yet because I couldn't come up with anything interesting. If you think of something, you can use them.

I have also played the map and I think that Vancho's guardian of obelisk is too strong even with ring of life I randomly got from the wagon (I only fought the battles necessary to move further so I guess I could do better if I had the experience from all the guarded chests and +1 attack from mercenary camp. I also didin't build up the town since I didn't have enough time to get resources). That giant decimated my army and I only left with 6 orcs that obviously aren't enough against 60 master gremlins. I skipped that battle with "wogfrodo", took centaurs and dwarves and then died against 35 Obsidian Gargoyles. I might have failed because of my lack of skill in playing, so I think others should also report their results of these battles. Download

Note: ERA is now needed to play this map, because I used trigger FU77003 for catching keyboard pressing.

I'm getting an error on the object at 120,8,0.

Also, on the "not having enough creatures"...

If you pay for a boat (2000 gold), and check out the place near the shipwreck, you find survivors.

Also, I just stayed near the town for a couple of weeks. I left there with 30 orcs, 40 wolf riders, 80 goblins, 10 raiders, 2 nomads, and 10-20 boars ( Since I visited the Goblin Barracks on day 7, I went to it twice).

The Giant was easy, and so were the garrison guards. I guess you just didn't gather enough forces, maybe someone should put an event saying, "Wait. Do I have a large enough force to continue?"

Anyway, the map passes on.

Okay. Deleted that object. I thought it was included in default WoG. Also did a small update in my scripts. Fixed map

Well, since I didn't go to that ship, so that's why I went there with too little creatures. I don't think a warning sign is needed. Player has to decide himself what creatures to have. Obviously I just didn't have to rush that much

Hey people.

I'm sorry I haven't worked on this. I didn't have internet access for a week, and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed with all of the schoolwork I have. Hopefully, when it's my turn next, I'll be able to do something, but right now I have no energy for creative output whatsoever. Sorry.
