COME tries to reproduce, in the best way possible, all of the important and iconic regions / locations of the Middle Earth during the War of the Ring. Indeed, the mapping is very a important element for us as it will allow us to see many iconic locations recreated for COME. We see this as a pivotal function of the mod, as it allows players to be in total immersion of the game world.
