Board Thread:Modded Servers/@comment-27689279-20151111233453

I am currently in search of players who are interested in joining my personal server.

The server is a war-themed role playing server. The main goal is that a series of events build up to a war or battle. The structure of gameplay is like most actual LoTR tales: peace, then discovery of evil, then rallying of allies, then engaging in war with evil. This makes for a more organized, meaningful style of war gameplay, and not people mindlessly spawning troops to see which units are stronger. Essentially, the server is creating a personal tale in Middle-earth.

Example scenario:

Player 1 suffers an invasion (game event, not from a player). Player 1 finds a significant evil item dropped from Orc in the invasion. Player 1 reports mysterious findings to Player 2 and Player 3. All players determine the origin of powerful evil item. All players rally the armies of their respective factions. All players head to said evil region and charge to the heart (the main waypoint of that region). This server is good-oriented, so no evil aligned players are permitted. This essentially means that much of the conflict and set-up events (leading to a war) are role play/imagination based, and depend on fate and randomized events generated in-game.

Victory of a war is determined if at least one player is able to reach the heart of the evil region being invaded (the main waypoint), and survive for a certain period of time.

Player deaths are taken very seriously on this server. For Dwarven and Men players, periodic death is acceptable, since there is room for the explanation of heirs, etc.; for Elven players, the value of immortal life is important, and it is highly encouraged to minimize casualties, and if possible, never perish. (As an Elven player on this server, after many wars, I have not perished a single time).

Each player is in charge of an entire faction, so I do not need many players, probably only around 2-3. Because players will be joining as the lords or kings of the faction of their choice, they will receive a high alignment with that faction and plentiful resources (food & coins) when they initially join.

Most, if not all the major structures (except Isengard and Barad-dur) are in the map, so no personal structures are permitted.

Ultimately however, I am looking for mature, trustworthy people who are enthusiastic about role playing. The reason why this server is personal now is because I've had players in the past that couldn't handle the freedom of access to plentiful resources and priviledges.

Thanks for reading! If you have any further questions, feel free to message me.

Please note: this is an invitation, it is not open yet to outside players. If enough people are interested, I will first have to compile a mod pack and resource packs for the server, then let people in.

Other info:

Currently taken factions: Woodland Realm, Durin's Folk, Rohan

Available factions: High Elves (Lindon or Rivendell), Gondor, Lothlorien, Blue Mountains

The history and tales of this server can be found on my profile page, for those who are interested in the amount of role playing involved.
