Ring of the Damned

Savage mod | TBD

The Ring of the Damned mod is a Lord of the Ring spin-off for the game Savage: The Battle for Newerth. Ring of the Damned (RotD) is a total conversion, modifying everything from units, and animation, to buildings. The mod opens up abilities and gameplay never before used or seen in Savage. The maps featured in Ring of the Damned offer unique gameplay strategies that was not even thought of in the origional Savage. The units have been redone to give them a Middle-Earth feel.

Hello everyone, Henry reporting from 'Ring of the Damned'! We have a new site in progress, a real site, and it should hopefully be up within a week or two! We have a couple new additions to the team! A character animator, Paul, a mapper, Straith, and a world modeler, PinnapleTheHun!

We do not have any new visuals in yet, so no new screens for you all. But, the good news, coding is going along superb! Our coding monkey, Xenocide, has been digging his nose into the code for so long, and not complaining about the large tasks put on his shoulders. I would just like to give my thanks to him :) . Gameplay is great, and in our opinion, better than the origional game, SaVage. Most of the focus is on melee, but the few ranged units can be devastating. I, along with the team, are really looking forward for this to reach Beta 1 status so the public can get your hands on it! Expect more news soon...
