Helms Deep - 8 players is a mod for The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth, created by EfeKaracar and Dreamy Folk.
Description (in author’s own words):
Realizing there are no cool movie maps that support 8 players, I decided to work on them myself for personal use. Maybe you will like it too, hope you enjoy!

This is originally Helms Deep by m@tt. I modified it so it can be played with 8 players/bots, (One of the players starts within helms deep as 2nd defender.) I also resized the maps to west/east so it is twice bigger now. Map also includes lots of outpost and farm plots.
There are trolls and goblin creeps - even elven archer as creeps that guard some of the plots! I thought it would be a nice touch to actual lore and not essentially game-breaking since they guard some of the outposts.
There are some issues with terrain, that I need to put more time into it for 2nd version. I also tried to capture a more cinematic look with the light and shadow settings. I think map turned out quite different for a skirmish map and includes out-of-box stuff. Hope you enjoy!
Credits to m@tt for originally sharing the map, and to Dreamy Folk and Efe Karacar for making this map!
Let me know what you think. I might do more maps like this. (Minas trith, Black Gate...)
