FAQs

Q: When will this mod be done?

A: When it’s done.

A: Yes.

Q: Are the elves in the Elven Faction thread high elves or a mix of wood and high?

A: Mostly high, but some wood. There will be two elven factions though.

Q: Will dwarves have recruitable cavalry of some type?

A: We think so, but it won’t be very good. but the dwarven melee infantry will be some of the best (next to the elves of course)

Q: Do you want this mod to focus mainly on the books, or the films?

A: It’s not really one or the other, we use both, it seems that we are going with the movies on most of the armor because it provides our modelers with a visual aid.
Q: Are you going to imply the Fellowship/destroying of the Ring in some way?

A: Not in this release, we may not even do it at all, not really a purpose of the tw series to have little quests like that.
Q: I’ve seen you are focussing on the movies for the unit looks, are you going to do the same with portraits of generals/heroes like Theoden/Eomer/Elrond/etc?

A: Yes, it will give a photoreal look to the portraits and just improve overall look and feel.
Q: Will this mod focus only on the War of the Ring? if so how long will one turn take? And will one be able to continue after the WotR?

A: No it start’s about fifty years before the War of the Ring and it will continue afterwards.
Q: What would be the goal in the campaign?, conquer x settlements?, destroy x enemy factions?, destroy the Ring?

A: Yes, Yes, and No. We’ll probably throw in a few other things too, but it’s still too early in development right now.
