My jaw hurts! Reviewing posts over the last month, I kept seeing awesome units and my mouth kept falling open. Amazing, Curtsibling, Fairline, Tanelorn and Varwnos!

A bad bout of P.O.S. forced me to tweak these a bit, and I've drawn a mumakil and Haradrim warrior to go with.

Useable bmp for these units:

Excellent. I would have to say these LOTR units are your best work yet.

[curtsibling]

Indeed!

Those are definitive Tolkien units...The howda on the Oliphant is wonderfully done!

[jim panse]

Wow ... these look so incredibly good

I wonder if you would still need "regular" work had you recieved a dime for every single time someone on this board told you it would have to be your best work yet ...

I am mighty glad we have you on this board, thank you for sharing these

[tanelorn]

Speechless!

Fairline, I love lotr and especially everything that combines civ2 and lotr, like your units..
Need I say more?

So, are you working with Catfish? Is he going to finish his LOTR scenario?

[fairline]

No, and I don't know I'm afraid. I just made a ToT conversion of Harlan's LOTR, and I needed some units to fill in the blanks in Catfish's collection. These ones are not in the same league as his photo conversions, but they are a similar size and suffice for my own use. Obviously I shan't be posting the complete units set as Catfish's LOTR stuff is reserved for his scenario.

I think we'd all love to see Catfish's scenario completed, but I haven't seen him post for a while, and he said himself his interest in Civ had waned. Just looking at the screenies on his site (check out the Moria excursion map!) are enough to get you drooling.

Are you out there Catfish? Are you still working on the LOTR scenario?

Thanks Arth. I've gotta ask: weren't you putting together a ToT LOTR scenario a year or 2 back? Did anything come of it?

[Arthedain]

He's still working on his scen from time to time, just watch his own site: http://users.tpg.com.au/jpwbeest/jp_links.htm

I was working on a LOTR scen for MGE. But I never got anywhere cause my computer crashed. So I decided to settle with Harlan's and wait for Catfish. I did however modified Harlan's A LOT, but my computer crashed a week ago, so I lost all my civ2 mods.. I guess I will stick with playing civ2 from now on, not modify. (Gotta learn to back things up).

Just thinking about loosing my graphics library..

Btw, Fairline, when are we gonna se a ww2 compilation from you? I'm talking about your ULTIMATE ww2 compilation. Oh yeah, I want all your other units too.. better start looking.

Actually, Catfish was on the forum this week, he still has his old CIV2 magic fully operational!

Not to toot my own horn, but I did a LOTR scenario for MGE a year or so ago. Aside from forgetting to add ents, and not being able to get a city name list to work, I think it was pretty good. If you want to try it out, you can find all of the files here:
