This Minas Ithil?Not Minas Morgul?
Actually it is both. :)
Minas Ithil is the original name of Minas Morgul.
Our game is in the end of the Second Age. First about 2000 years later, in the Third Age, it was renamed:
"And in the days of Eärnil [the Nazgûl] made their first stroke, and they came by night out of Mordor over the passes of the Mountains of Shadow, and took Minas Ithil for their abode; and they made it a place of such dread that none dared to look upon it. Thereafter it was called Minas Morgul, the Tower of Sorcery"
- from Silmarillion
In the same way Minas Tirith's original name was Minas Anor, and in DCI:LA that is the name used, because "Minas Tirith" was invented in the Third Age too.
The walls should be clean they were new that time.
The settlement has just been sacked and ravaged in 3429, the same year the game begins, and parts of it (including the White Tree) burnt, by Mordor's forces, so we dem it fitting with stained and grimy walls.
do you have a clue when is the mod coming out? Im so excited about his mod..
Excelent work so far guys!
We're glad to hear you think so, FPZ :)
Oh, "the first rule of modding is you do not talk about release dates", haha, because they're always delayed.
But, as I said yesterday at the TWC forum:
"We are really down to our 'To Do-list for the final release' now. That mean still months and months of work (a.k.a this is no hint of a release date hehe), for sure, but we can see the goal at the horizon nowadays".
We plan to go straight for a full release, and if we maintain pace, I as an optimist would dare to guess on the second quarter of 2016.
