Forums - War Of The Silmarils Mod for Battle for Middle-earth II

This is a mod for BFME2, based on J.R.R Tolkien's epic tale The Silmarillion. It will replace all the current factions with factions from the First Age, as well as changing the gameplay in many ways, including new AI for each faction. The factions we will be adding are: Teleri - A faction based almost entirely on ambushing. They will be one of the easiest factions to play as on either heavily forested maps or maps with a lot of water, due to their superior navy and ambushing tactics. They may struggle in open battle, but late game they will be able to hold their own, due to their elite infantry and strong heroes. They are very weak to siege, as their lack of cavalry means they can't ride out and quickly destroy any siege weapons. Noldor - The Noldor will be the best all-round faction, who will probably be one of the easiest factions to play as. Their only weaknesses are high build costs and build times. Their siege is also not as strong as other factions. Apart from that though...
