and plays great, except for the lack of included maps. Wasn't there a picture of a playable Middle Earth?

You can use nearly all maps from Dom2 as well. No need to change anything in them.

Yep, just copy the maps folder over even.

It's painful waiting on my copy. I live two states away and yet my copy that shipped on Friday didn't arrive today. I kept asking the mailroom, "Are you SURE I don't have a package?"

I'm pretty sure they hate me.

What if some mailman who's a Dominions_2 fan found your package and had the package accidently lost during his route.

Like ... Elf Porn!

( Anyone else remember a published story with a stoned elf wandering around a dragon's lair with a dog eared copy of Play Elf?

That's it NT, play to his worst fears

You can't distribute a Middle Earth map with a commercial product without paying heavy royalties.

Search the Dom2 forum for the map .. must be available somewhere (though I cannot find it atm as well).

The game comes with a random map generator... that should provide plenty of new maps.
