Love this guy! great work matey!

Looks brutal!

Ive done about 40% of the art. But the rest comes from other freelance sources and mods that have approved our use of the material (I need to outline for other out there, NOTHING has been used without approval) all rights are reserved to the creators.

The trailer was made by a fan who wanted the film. We thought it fitted the mod as we plan on adding those campaigns (short stories) this was also approved by the creator. There is no plaigorism here...

Hi Pemberley, its great to know your still following us too.

Yes the design target is still the same. Nothing has changed, it just means we have had a bit of a set back. Il try and post some updates. But so far there is not a lot to show as we have already shoen the concepts for the things im currently adding (ie gondor and angmar walls) il post the new unit models though, when i add them.

Hey Aranart, its great to know your still following us. We seem to have lost a few fans, due to a lot of needless slander going around unfortunately.

Ive resolved everything as much as i can and havent heard anything since, so i think were good. for now atleast anyway.

Isengard are complete now, pending a few minor details.
Im working on angmar next.
Slow but steady progress!
If you know any coder that could help, please send them our way!

Hey guys, i seem to have lost our skype!
Can you send me your details please?

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay, I AM NOW BACK ACTIVELY WORKING ON THE MOD. Thanks for all your support, i am hoping to release some downloads for you in 2018. Apologies for the delay, we have had a few copyright problems that we needed to clear up before releasing anything.

Your still active! Your something of a legend my friend. you did a great job on RJ and i want to take this opportunity to thank you for enabling so many modders to have the opportunity to use such good coding structure. what are your thoughts on The Legacy of Silmarillion helping maintain the legacy of RJ? TLOS has progressed quite far away from RJ. But RJ made it happen and i hope you will be proud of what we will release. We would also be very honoured, if you would let us use some of the original RJ models, rather than replace them all? Thanks for getting in touch!

Hi everyone. First of all i would like to say we really appreciate those of you that are supporting our work. I understand where a lot of this copyright confusion has come from, but our intentions are purely good.

I did not start this mod for profit or fame, it is purely for others enjoyment. RJ has been dead for 8 years and we havent heard anything from any of the RJ team members, Still even now. However now we know their are issues, we are currently in the process of replacing the RJ models as RJ is now been revived by another team and i respect Rob for his work.

This mod was never designed to be released publicly in the first place and having done about 70% of it on my own for 6 years. why would i start from scratch. about 90% of the mods on mod db use the RJ platform. Including Edain, because Rob did a great job, surely this is a credit to him rather than slander? This mod is nothing like RJ, or any other mod on mod db, when we release it. you will see this. However RJ has been credited.

As for my involvement in RJ, i did not get involved in RJ quite so heavily. My job was mainly working as an external artist, involved both in maps and 2d graphics.

At the end of the day, RJ was dead. nothing was said about it being put on hold and nobody replied to any kind of contact in 8 years, so i felt the right thing was to credit RJs work and carry on, all mods are freeware and if it has been made public. Anyone can use it. There are only laws attached to imitating peoples work. Not using data that is freely given. Can you please show me anything, that says "The public can not use our platform"?

Mathijs, if you are the keeper of RJ, how would you like us to proceed? i am more than happy to comply, as i have a lot of respect for RJs work, and i no way, want to be seen as using content wrongly. i appreciate you hearing us out.

As for Edain, Ive never had access to your files, or requested it. however we have been working with Dagor Dagorath, so please tell me which stuff you are referring to and il remove it. The istari are however from Rj..

We have some armoured Nazgul models, waiting to be added. so yes there will be. Thanks for your support!

We will be releasing a public beta by the end of the year. weve just had some draw backs lately

Were still alive. We have just had some major drawbacks after the revival of RJ and are in the process of replacing all the RJ models, as it is no longer dead. it might not be a while until we release a public Beta. but this mod ill never die, after 6 years in construction. As for Edain though. Im not sure why they think we have taken models from them. We have never had access to their files, but we do have strong ties with Dagor Dagorath team and there may have been some mix us there. Il be looking into it soon. We appreciate all your support though!

Thanks you for your Support!

Unfortunately this mod will be quite big. we are currently at 1.2gb, when we have finished Beta phase however, we will be doing a lot of cleaning up to bring the file size down. so it may not be over 1.5gb at the end

Did you manage to fix this issue guys?

Happy new year to you too buddy!

Thanks buddy! happy new year to you too!

So we have now formed up with Dagor Dagorath Team and are planning on merging our 2 great mods. It is a great honour to gain the opportunity to work alongside such talented coders and modelers. We can now expect a lot more from our much anticipated super-mod!

See what they have accomplished so far on their own mod and what new to expect in Silmaillion here:

Thank You for Everyones Support So Far!
Long Live Battle for Middle Earth!

Were not delving into sub factions. but upgrades will be available for subfaction units, like gundabad and erebor units

Were already 1 step ahead there anton, just a teaser goblins have a propper firebreathing drogoth, rhun have smaug, mordor have a balrog, high elves have sorcerors that summon lightening, so on so forth. we'll post some more screenshots soon!

Dont worry about that blaze. weve been working on it for years and were not just going to drop it. it may take a bit of time, but keep posted.

Also the skirmish mode will be a combination of both but also a brnd new. never seen before building system. Bfme3 style. all the fortresses shown in the screenshots are this system. not prebuilt map fortresses. these were made in game by the player, to the players design.

Arnor are almost complete and you will see them in their full glory in the prerelease!

Hey, its great to hear your interested. dont worry, we have no intention what so ever of removing the create a hero. at some point, we will be adding additional features.

Were still at late alpha phase, but will release an early version before the start of british summer. were in desperate need of some help coding. but the more testers the better!

Nice bro. Looking great!

Very Nice!

Great job man!
