Description
UPDATE 12-2017 Updated with proper highway and rail, and river banks are also up to standard - soft banks rather than unrealistic cliffs. Pics 2 to 6 are from this revision.

A little plain, but hey, this is the grasslands of Rohan, Middle Earth. Included is Edoras Fortress HIll in the center. The actual location of the filming of Rohan is Mount Sunday, Canterbury, New Zealand.

In order to make those greens turn into the tan/brownish Rohan colours you see here, the colour filter "Super Vibrant" is what I use You can find it here: http://gtm.you1.cn/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=412074217

Plenty of resources (fewer trees, of course), good water flow, lots of flat land to grow a decent sized city.

I chose to go with the real location in the movie instead. To put these maps into context, these were made in 2015 long before we had *any* of the mods we do now.
Back then, I took a stab at a book-accurate Minas Tirith and surrounding areas, but making a Minas Tirith hill that would also work with the limitations of buildings and network placement on slopes in the game made it an impossible concept at that time. I started making a Rivendell based on Tolkien's maps and descriptions, but that was turning into a huge undertaking and had the same limitations of trying to figure out a way to build on such a majestic location with only vanilla.
Today, with all the mods we have someone could certainly make an amazing Minas Tirith or Rivendell build, but I'm hoping someone else has the time and desire to make such a map and city build. ;)

What I think would be nice is if you went accurate to the books instead of the films. Then there would be more villages, rivers, mountains and castles. Apart from that great map!

Well at least we know Rohan survived the apolcolypse of evil...
