Legends of the 3rd Age (formerly: Blue Wizard Mod) adds two new playable factions, Lothlorien and Moria, to The Battle for Middle-earth(tm). These factions come with a fully functional AI. It also enhances the original factions with additions and changes the gameplay. The focus here is clearly on multiplayer. Units and structures are designed to fit in the original game's style.

Posted by on

The new Mordor spell book is my personal favorite. Today I will explain all the powers. The order and costs of the spells are subject to change, the spells are mostly final for the next update; though one spell might yet be replaced last minute because I've always been unhappy with it even in vanilla BFME.

Mordor Spell Book (12 Powers):



1. Tainted Land (1 PP)
- Grants +50% Armor for units standing on the Tainted Land (unchanged)


2. Eye of Sauron (1 PP)
- Grants +50% Damage and +100% Experience to targeted units (unchanged)


3. Corsairs of Umbar (2 PP)
- Summons 4 battalions of Corsairs on the battlefield

Editor's Comment: Corsairs overall health and damage reduced


4. Scavenger (2-3 PP)
- Killed units supply resources (unchanged)


5. Industry (2 PP)
- Grants +100% production to selected furnace or slaughter house (unchanged)


6. Devastation (3 PP)
- Trees supply resources (unchanged)


7. Morgul Witchcraft (4 PP)
- All structures get +50% armor

Editor's Comment: Mordor structures are usually less tanky. Now they can be significantly stronger.


8. Call the Horde (4 PP)
- Increases the Orc Pit production speed drastically for some time. (unchanged)


9. Darkness (8 PP)
- Enshrouds the entire map in darkness. +50% damage and armor (unchanged)

Editor's Comment: It's 8 PP, not 9 PP.


10. Volcanic Strike (7 PP)
- Summons volcanic rocks that smash onto the battlefield. Deals high damage against structures.

Editor's Comment: Might still get shifted elsewhere as it is pretty powerful.


11. The Dark Lord (8 PP)
- Unlocks Sauron in the Mordor citadel.

Editor's Comment: Finally, he will be able to join the battle field!


12. Summon Balrog (20 PP)
- Summons a Balrog on the battle field. (unchanged)
