They passed Tarlang’s Neck and came into Lamedon; and the Shadow Host pressed behind and fear went on before them, until they came to Calembel upon Ciril, and the sun went down like blood behind Pinnath Gelin away in the West.

–The Passing of the Grey Company, The Return of the King

Lamedon is a sub-biome of Gondor that comprises a series of valleys just south of the Ered Nimrais, through which the Ringló and Ciril rivers flow south. It largely consists of scattered woodlands, hills and boulders. Lamedon is a populous region which is home to the Hillmen of Lamedon. During the War of the Ring its Lord was Angbor, whom Aragorn dubbed “the fearless”.

Upon entering the fiefdom of Lamedon, you gain the achievement "Hills and Vales".

  • Lamedon Fort Village - militaristic settlements centred around a Lamedon Fortress and surrounded by high walls and eight turrets, townhouses, smithies, stables and wells are also found inside the outer fortifications.

Conquest[]

Lamedon can be conquered by Gondor, Mordor, Near Harad, Rhúdel, Half-trolls and Isengard. The conquest rate is 1.0.

Mining[]

Lamedon features the standard ore distribution, but unlike other biomes it also features Gondor Rock below the surface. This rock is essential for the crafting of Gondorian building materials, and can be found in a thin layer beneath the dirt surface of the biome, in patches underground, and in boulders on the surface.

Vegetation[]

The grass in Lamedon is a browner shade than that of the rest of Gondor, similar to that of the Lone-lands. However, the terrain here often features reasonable patches of exposed dirt too. As Lamedon is a less fertile upland region Common Vegetation makes up the majority of the flora which is to be found. Although, as with the rest of Gondor, Athelas can spawn here rarely. The biome is also quite thickly forested and a variety of trees including Oak, Birch, Larch, Aspen and Beech are to be seen throughout it.
