I wanted to let everyone know that I'm still working on the mod.

Posted by on

Hello everybody, I'm still alive. Sorry for the lack of news lately. I have been really busy with my studies and they take priority over the mod. I still have been working on stuff, I just haven't been posting progress. I mainly have been working on solidifying the work I have done, and planning what I have left until I can release something. Some of the work I've done can't really be shown because its just boring text. But there is some work I've done that has pictures to show.

I also have installed Battle For Middle Earth and it's expansion. Its a neat game. I have drawn some more inspiration from it, but don't worry I won't copy everything from it.

I have made a couple of portraits and icons

I also worked on another map, The Ettenmoors. One of the inspirations I drew from BFME, I tried to make it similar but different enough at the same time. It will feature the Stone Troll natives.

When I have more time I would still like to post the individual tutorial/guides of the different races. That way people can better understand and become familiar with the features.

Neat! Glad that you're being inspired by BFME. Have you tried Edain Mod? You know, the Moddb MOTY for 2015. It's great!
And of course, I have to ^^ :
-Elven Vilager (Lorien/Rivendell/Mirkwood)
-Black Numenorean Swordsman (Angmar)
-Wanderer (?)
-Marchwarden (Lorien)
Got it right? XD

I haven't tried the edain mod but I do follow it. It looks awesome, I think it deserved the mod of the year award.

-Yes
-I haven't named it yet but it is of Angmar
-An unnamed mercenary unit (it might become mountain man)
- Wandering Elf(mercenary)

As someone who mods The Battle for Middle-earth I believe that you are creating a fantastic mod right here. I am really looking forward to this. =D If you need any help with the art stuff of BfME check out T3A at Revora Forums.

P.S. And that Ettenmoors map is looking great. ;)
