Umbar image - Age of the Firstborn mod for Battle for Middle-earth II: Rise of the Witch King

In the Age of the Firstborn modification, we take the game back to the middle of the Third Age, and set "The Rise of the Witch-King" in a more suitable timeframe. The factions featured in this mod will also have to change due to this change in setting. Fighting for the forces of light in the first release, there will be Lindon, Lothlorien, Gondor, and Khazad-Dûm. The armies of the forces of darkness will be composed of Dol Guldur, Angmar, Umbar, and Wilderland. In the future, we aim to bring the faction of Arnor to you, too. The mod will introduce many new buildings, units, powers and heroes to the game, and turn it into a faster and more exciting experience than ever before!
