It used to be at : http://www.ascensiongames.com
However the link to the map seems dead. Maybe there is another spot, or somebody can share it ? Thanx

Or if someone can provide a link to where a good map image of middle earth can be picked up... map makers might create an updated middle earth map.

While it's not hard at all to find a nice map of Middle-Earth, getting permission to use it for free is a lot harder. Especially one that has high enough resolution to create the epic dominions atmosphere we all know and love.

I guess the easiest way to get hold of one is if the dom2 map could be made available for download again.

Edit: I've may have spoken too soon. A LARP happy friend of mine just sent me two 300 dpi images of middle earth. I'm not sure how usable they are though since they got Copyright Tolkien Enterprises branded on them.

As long as we don't use the map as a way to earn money it will be fine. Tolkien Enterprises won't mind more popularity of their work as long as no one is making money off their work.

I guess you're right. I'll attach the images to this post.

The DomII map North-West Middle-Earth, the one previsouly available from Ascension Games, is now attached to this post.

There's a bug in that a random Water nation may be chosen despite #seaplayers 0, but if you choose the nations that you want in, you can play it just fine.

Heh? Must be daft for I can't see any map attached to your post, or any other post in this thread.

Hmm? What? Oh, yes, I am daft, that's right. Sorry, I think I fixed it now.
