Lord of the rings

[mrtemba]

you mean mordor of course.....

[af Ulm]

No of course I meant midgard (including allies)...........

[randomturn]

Maybe you mean middle earth. Midgard is the name of a Microprose scenario, and has no connection to Lord of the Rings.

[mrtemba]

yeah, that was my point.

[af Ulm]

Yes, i mean't middle earth of course. Midgard is the name of the world in nordic mythology, where Tolkien took the name Middle Earth from, and name in the Swedish translation of the books.

Where can I get the fourth version then?

[af Ulm]

You can always kill them yourself, It wouldn't be ethically right though, ha ha.

You can also cancel orders by choosing an improvement and then cancelling at the 50% Penalty thing.:-)

P.S. Is there any way to make sure Rohan's Eomer and Eowyn are killed really early?

Although I almost hate to ask, but has anyone gone to the trouble of converting the Lord of the Rings senario into a Mac compatible formate?

The Mac converted Lord of the Rings is available right over here!

The site also contains instructions for converting PC mods to Mac which I intend to try out soon on the Gangster scenario.

Is there really noone who knows where the fourth vesion of the scneario is?

[MacUser]

Well, the site that Valmont suggested did have a LOR Mac scenario and the ReadMe file/instructions said Version 3. However, Caspian and I have been trying to play it as a PBEM Hot Seat game and finally realized that his PC version 3 was different from my Mac Ver.3! My version has 57 Units in the Unit.PICT file while his Unit.GIF files has 70 units mapped in different squares! Needless to say this caused some confusion!

Caspian feels that my Mac LOR must be version 2 rather than 3. Does anyone know of another Mac conversion? Should I get brave and try to convert the PC Vers 3? Did anyone every find out about the mysterious PC ver 4? Can Harlan Thompson be contacted? and who is John Galt?
