Quenta Silmarillion is a total conversion mod focused on the First Age of Beleriand, based on Tolkien's own vision and work. If you want to join the team, just PM Bercor or Milner! Help is always welcome.
Models and textures by the great nahun. Still WIP (minors things to do).
Would civilians be able to walk within the courtyard? Speaking of, would there be a diversity of civilians per faction and settlement? Such as women, children, workers, farmers, and guard?
Nope, the Palace's court would not be accessible for units or civilians (pretty much as in RTW vanilla). Regarding civilians, I assume you mean people walking in cities when you click 'View the settlement on the battlemap' from the campaign map?
If yes, we have not reached that point of development, I'm afraid. As far as I know we have no plans for changing them yet. Maybe we will do as many mods and replace them with soldiers.
