    Hello,

    And welcome to the Org.

    This sounds like interesting news.

    It would be nice to have a LOTRO Total war, and it could span over the various conflict eras of Grand conflicts, so more fitting to have Middle Earth Total War.

    This could be the next Fantasy Title or series of titles. Albeit I also feel that Warhammer Universe (the next best thing after Middle earth in terms of Lore etc) still has much to offer.

    Cheers!

    Yep... the rape and exploitation of the "franchise" / cash cow can now begin in earnest....

    If only CA would hire King Kong to translate Third Age into a modern version of the game
    Literally Third Age (& addons like leo.civil.uefs unofficial patch) is an almost perfect implementation of LoTR into TW engine

    I was just thinking as well Expansions and DLC could be done on the first and second ages.

    I think its pretty likely that part of the Warhammer contract would prevent CA from either ever doing other Fantasy or exclude it for a very long time.

    Just to point out - there is a Third Age / LOTR mod, very popular, for Total War games. Check it out.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
