A New Type of LotR map

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring- THREE VE THREE


The Idea
Two teams of three, taking control of a Lord of the Rings character, face off
on two identical boards, each representing a location in the Fellowship of the
Ring movie¹. Both teams will face hardships, combat, and self sacrifice. What's
different in this map, is that (unlike every other LOTR map) combat is not the focus.


The Focus

This map focuses on teamwork and beating the other team to the end of the map.


The Areas

1- The Shire
2- Bree
3- Troll Shaws
4- Rivendell
5- Caradhras
6- Moria
7- Lothlorien
9- Amon Hen


Hardships

One of the gameplay styles will be the different hardships suffered by the players. It could
simply be bad weather, or sickness, in which another member would have to go out of the
way in order to find an item to cure it, before the sick member dies.

Bad weather like rain or snow would slow down the group. The number of enemies such as
wolves near the Shire orcs orcs in Moria would vary depending on the area. And you won't see
too many enemies anyway, because combat isn't the focus. Understand that it hasn't been eliminated
though.

One of the more interesting hardships is that once the group heads to Moria and Khazad' dum, the players
have to discuss which one will fight the balrog and fall to their doom. After that happens, the player that sacrified
themselves gets reincarnated as another group of the Fellowship².

Characters

Player 1and player 4 (red and purple)
Gandalf The Grey

Player 2 and player 5 (blue and yellow)
Aragorn the Ranger

Player 3 and 6 (teal and orange)
Frodo the Hobbit

People Needed
Skinners
Light Moddelers
Terrainers
Triggerers
Idea People

No cinimatics, just pop-up text
No direct player combat.
Both teams use separate but identical "boards"
Hopefully custom skins for all the characters/monsters (boobless Legolas too)
If this gets done, there will be ones for the Two Towers and Return of the King.
Custom skills for each character. That's nine skills. Not too hard.

¹Movie based maps get done quicker :-)
²TBD- too be announced

I CAN do triggers, but Id rather not do anymore until Im done with my RPG, the triggers in a that piss me off and I dont want to do any Extra, but I will help u with triggers if anyone gets stuck, I Really like this map idea, and Id like to help u with Ideas. Like units r heroes, and as they complete tasks, the group lvls up, and they get abilities like a blink ability that can only target Wards, and u need to use that character to blink across gaps and find ways across the gaps and stuff, like they have to complete a puzzle to turn on a power generator that activates a warp gate, or force bridge...

BTW, is this TFT?
