Hey guys, I got put into the hospital over the weekend and was already desperately looking for something to do and you haven't let me down. Thank you very much for your great work and the amazing timing! Keep up the good work and know, you did some fan a great joy!
Is there, the orks of the misty mountain, rework?
The Misty Mountains have been updated.
Okey! thanks!
Time for a test round with them <3
YEEESSS, FINALLY! I've been sitting on this for MONTHS. It's so nice to come home, settle down, refresh the ModDB page, and see this. I'm genuinely excited, which is hard to do. Thank you for the pick-me-up, guys!
They proved me wrong!! Awesome!!!!!
Ohh yes finally we get it!
Massive thanks to all who worked on that!
Awesome work guys well done!!! The Dungeons of Dol Guldur will feature Mirkwood? That would be amazing!!!
Rohan;s great, though Rivendell's upgrade system is a tad bit.. confusing o.o Cus their units do have the Heavy Armour upgrade icon, though even when purchased from a Smith, it still says "This unit cannot receive this upgrade", even when they rank up.
This only happened to me on the Map The Last Homeley House. But when you buy a builder and build a free smith you can purchase upgrades normally.
It's a bug on build plot fortress maps currently.
Aye, I realize that now too. It happened while I was playing on The Last Homely House, much akin to Nero above this comment. Certainly explains why it was so confusing
Hiya! Is this problem able to be fixed in a future patch? It certainly causes trouble when you've got units in basic gear fighting heavily armoured brutes with upgraded weapons... :P. Thanks!
Great work guys!!! :D.... But I have a weird bug, every time I want to choose a faction in the skirmish, it crashes to the desktop, any idea what to do?? And thanks for any reply :)
Really remarkable, I swear that when I finished the campaign I wanted to applaud and I did it, because to be an independent production I was too surprised, it is incredible the love with which it is made and in truth I already wait for the continuation of this WORK MOD MASTER
Hi.
Thanks for taking the time to write this. It was a lot of work but feedback such as this really makes it worth it.
Cheers,
Fudge
It was absolutely amazing. I actually included it on my review of the mod if you wanna check it out
Hi guys,
I've just created an account to say that this is probably the greatest mod I've ever played. The amount of work put into tiniest of details is astonishing, I still cannot believe that this is a fully amateur project. And the fact that Rohhirim spontaneously scream "DEATH" when in greater numbers is an cherry on top, which places Rohan as my favourite faction.
Only downside is main menu, which was better in previous version.
Keep up the great work
Hey Guys,
I just tried to play the War of the Ring, but it crashed multiple times. Sometimes instantly and sometimes after a few rounds. Do you have any idea?
Next to this you all really did a nice job!
Great work!
We've heard reports of this but so far haven't been able to pinpoint the reason, I'm afraid.

Hello , first of all amazing job, truly colossal! Currently going though with the campaign and it's hands down much better than anything EA did or can do.... Very very well done and in small details also. Said that i have an issue and it's frustrating , right after the Osgiliath defence with Boromir in "Council of Elrond" campaign mission , during the cutscene when Boromir "rock&rolls;" Osgiliath with his speech the game always crashes with both Memory and game.dat errors showing at the same time.... Can't seem to find the problem. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers !
Ehm I am hit with you do not have patch 2.02 installed when installing age of the ring. What are the solutions, if someone can help me please?
