There will be some differences, aye, but I'll say nothing until the preview (because all is up for changes until then; and after too, honestly haha, but then we're quite sure at least ^^)

Can see the quality continues to shine around DCI:LA.
Keep up the great work guys!
(PS. Now, I will be more despondent as my elven units put those great looking units to the arrow/sword. )
About time; not as fun making previews without our old time mate Pyres around ^^

Very nice work! Keep it up!
any news lately? haven't seen any update on release or previews lately
Great submod. Which book is this submod based on?
Ngugi will be able to answer that when he returns. I don't think The Silmarillion covers this time so it's probably based on bits and pieces from the History Of Middle-earth books and whatnot.
'Quenta Silmarillion', that's the main part of the book Silmarillion is not the source to this game indeed. However, the two later parts named 'Akallabêth' and 'Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age' are core sources to the Second Age.
Same goes for Unfinished Tales, with 'Part Two: The Second Age' as well as early bits of 'Part Three'.
To these comes the Appendicies of LotR and of the History of Middle-earth-books especially the 12th book.

Cool I asked because I'm about to read some Tolkien
Thanks!
Good decision!
In general the suggested order of reading is
1) The Hobbit
2) LotR
3) Silmarillion and/or the Appendicies to LotR [in some countries the Appendicies is released as a book in itself instead of as the last part of RotK].
After that you have Unfinished Tales, that consist of many different and unfinished, hehe, tales, from different ages, and is no book meaningful to read from front to back but that you read different chapter in depending on your interest.
The History of Middle-earth books are often evern more academical and not of interest unless you want to get real into studies of the mythology; if you want at normal story these books are not meaningful.

Thanks!
Just so you are aware, the overlapping plates mentioned on the Haradrim soldier are generally seen as most as Tolkien trying to describe Lammelar armor, not the plate armor you have given to units from Far Harad https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...tami_dou_3.JPG (Example)
Just to let you know, and its certainly the image I got in my head, however the Golden Plate of the men of Far Harad does certainly look AMAZING, and I can't wait to utilize them, though I do have to wonder why you have had such a drastic difference in equipment quality(As in the style of equipment not the look of the models, the models of Far Harad infantry look great) between Far harad with the Infantry looking like Zulu Warriors and the Warriors looking more fantastical that you might expect to be seeing in some advanced civilization.
Hello captainkrunch,
The Far Harad Warriors are for sure based on the description in TTT:
and if you got the impression we made a plate armour, then I would redirect you to the images again (or merely the cut out, as follows). They wear a gambeson under and over brazen scale armour, and a breastplate. Someone may perhaps misinterpet that as a cuirass, but that would be actual plate armour and for that purpose be far larger. At any rate, we do not deem it a plate armour, and are very happy with it...a golden collar. His scarlet robes were tattered, his corslet of overlapping brazen plates was rent and hewn, his black plaits of hair braided with gold were drenched with blood.
- Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
As for the second question, it's because we only have two unist representing a vast part of the continent, that naturally range from rural tribes to centralized civilizations, so we have one from 'each end' of the scale.

Just found out about this mod... And all I can say is wow, i'm speechless. I'm so excited for this, never seen anything covering the second age and I've always wanted someone to do so with a strategy game. Great work guys, keep it up!
Thanks mate, glad to surprise, hehe
