I started to play as orcs, because I wanted to use Balrog to wipe out enemy armies. Now I have access to all available units, but there's no Balrog. Is there a mod that makes Balrog recruitable?

So as to be more precise, we have two triggers to lead to the spawning of the balrog.
1) For the A.I.; when Moria is besieged, no matter what turn you are in the campaign.
2) As a human player; when you build mithril mines and if the turnnumber is 80 or above. Futher you see more details about the balrog in the spoiler (age, speed, traits, etc.).
If all requirements are met you get this message:

For A.I.: ''An attack on the gate of Moria has resurrected the last host of Balrogs in Middle-earth!. The piercing screams of battle drew the Balrogs out of their hides to rescue their former allies and creatures of Melkor.''
For human player: ''Extensive mining in the pits of Moria has resurrected the last host of Balrogs in Middle-earth! Now the Balrogs were drewn out of their hides to support their former allies and creatures of Melkor.''
