- "For the fashion of Minas Tirith was such that it was built on seven levels, each delved into the hill, and about each was set a wall, and in each wall was a gate."
- —Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Minas Tirith as it appears in The Return of the King movie
This fan-made map allows the player to control the faction of Gondor and fight alongside its heroes to defeat the forces of Mordor. The Gondor player can train many troops such as the Knights of Dol Amroth or the Ithillien Rangers, the player can even train units of Rohan once the signal fire has been captured. As Mordor the player gains additional barracks and more resource building than usual, along with that they can capture Rhun and Harad buildings to be able to train their units. You can check out the official discussion thread here.
This map is primarily designed to oppose Mordor (in the camps) and Gondor (in the fortress). It will work with other faction but has been optimized for the above mentioned purpose.
