Lord Of The Rings Online game

The Shogun is a TripleA map and currently in Beta and is still therefore a WiP.

It is a collaborative map between Ebbe (Graphics) & TheDog (Code)

A historical map set about 1561 Japan, intended for many players to play a Free for All with the balance being played by the Hard AI 11 playable factions, comprising 10 Samurai Clans and the Ikko Ikki with Wako Pirates collectively called the The Rebels, all in their starting historical Provinces/Territories Clan Politics has 3 relationships, War (default), Neutral and Allied Large size map 11264x6140px, amongst one of the largest TripleA maps, with Unit size equivalent to 68x68px (54x54px x1.25 unit size). It is hoped that this is usable on 4K screens. The map has lots of Mountain Passes, lots of uncrossable Mountains and Rocky Shores channelling forces.

For me, I often get lost with the sheer mass of cards that are in all the sets of dominion, so I don’t mind just playing with the base. There are enough variations to keep it interesting. I know the feeling though, especially if they make the environment user-friendly or graphically applaudable.

Okay so I know what your all (okay maybe only a few people like me) are thinking. “Why don’t we have a good Axis and Allies WWI game?”. Well heres a thread to post all your ideas for the game. Maybe we can get Larry or Krieghund to look at it and maybe it’ll give them some ideas. Heres mine.

When they make it I hope they do seperate fronts. With a Med. board, a Europe board, and a Africa board. Maybe even Pacific.

@Cmdr:

If you are talking unofficial, commonly accepted variants, I would say AARe (Enhanced Revised) otherwise, at this point, Anniversary.

Yeah, I agree with Jenn !
