Greetings Gonzalo Welcome to the.Org http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

Thanks for the input. My personal favorite so far is: Gandalf Goes Gothic http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

YES YES YES a LOTR Mod
Would have to be called Mod: The Battle for Middle Earth

Just watched The Two Towers again last night and I hate it at the end when Gandalf says that. Why wont the release for ROTK hurry up or even the extended TTT. Grumble

Would be hard to made if u ask me, I mean, we would have almost only elite units:
-Elven Archers : these sure are elite archers, snipers I'd say
-Mages/wizards/whatever: hey, they're allpowerful (almost)
-Uruk-Hai : Elite warriors again
-Dwarven Axewielders: elite axewielders again http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

The only normal units could be human armies like in mtw, and the orcs sure aren't any stronger than normal peeps, xcept for darkvision and sun weakness, hobbits could only be used as assasins and I can't remember any other peeps from the movies that could be warriors.


Or am I mistaken?

Unfortunately i can't think of any good names as my brain is fried after doing my exams, but i have finished now and can play lots of Total War http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Acheron, there is a LOTR mod being made that looks really good. It is still in its early stages, but in the Dungeon, there is a big thread on it. Near the end of the thread there is a link to the modders own forum which gives loads of info on the mod, including many of the units they will have. As i said, it looks really cool and you should check it out.

Please dont just post useless crap, its hard enough doing this mod without having to read lots of posts that arent constructive. Having said that, if you want to be part of this mod, and feel you can add something... go ahead http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

a new map

no ships http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/angry.gif
a magic element to it
around 5 factions (elves, dwarves, men, goblins/orcs, race of mordor

interesting... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wacko.gif

As it is right now there are 7 factions:

Gondor
Rohan
Elves
Dwarves
Isengard
Mordor
Orcs/Goblins of Misty Mountains

Also likely for includement are the ents, who would be an unplayable faction.

we will have new sounds, new music, new battle map textures, landmarks such as orthanc and barad dur will be in-battle.


We currently have a few screenshots on a geocities website, it hasnt been updated in a little while, and VERY soon we will have our own website. But for the moment, heres a look at some of the early work...

click here (http://www.geocities.com/mtwlotr/)

look at the screenshot section.

we will have an entirely new map, entirely new units (about 5 uruk hai units are nearly ready, along with cave trolls, and rohan cavalry)

A first beta will be released in the not too distant future that will just provide rohan and Isengard units and an Historical battle.
