MiddleEarthProject is a full conversion Tolkien mod for Crusader Kings 2 which will feature bookmarks throughout the Third Age. This mod is being developed independently from any other LotR or Middle Earth mods out there. The map will cover the main areas of Middle Earth, known in the books and films.

So, Middle-Earth is waiting for you! Will you play as the descendant of one of the noble families of Rohan or Gondor?
Will you try to reforge the ancient kingdoms of Elves in Eriador? Or will you try to destroy all the Free Peoples, and claim Middle Earth for Morgoth?
This mod will give you a unique strategy experience of the Third Age in Middle-Earth. From Forodwaith to Bellakar, from Lindon to Rhûn, lead your dynasty and survive the Dark Times. Become one of the most important Lords of the Age!

We've found the History overhaul to be a massive stumbling block for any further development of the mod and the New MEP team being, as we stand, unfit to complete it. With the lack of progress has come a lack of interest in whatever minor work we can do and feelings of disappointment and failure in ourselves. This all added together with the growing and widespread movement away from CK2 to CK3 has left us questioning further wheel spinning. As such we will be posting a final release with what work we've managed and unfortunately disbanding the team. This release should be the most playable yet and remain so for as long as ck2 is, especially in pre-10k years.
We hope you enjoyed the work we put forth over the last year and a half.
The New MEP Team 2018-2020

Middle Earth Project

Lord of the Rings Conversion Mod for Crusader Kings II


Version 0.831 - Final can be picked up here.

Unfinished Developments for the MEP Mod

Version 0.831 - Final Installer by Brojan


MEP is an overhaul mod attempting to bring the world of Tolkien to playability in Crusader Kings 2.

The MEP Team's hope is to allow players to experience Tolkien's world of Arda, spanning from Angmar and the Iron Mountains in the North, The Harad Desert to the south, the Great Sea to the west, and Rhun to the east. As well as enjoy that world from a number of different perspectives, be that a Great King of Gondor, the Dark Lord Sauron, a noble Elf-lord, or a blood member of the Orkish Hordes.

Version 0.831

CK2 Compatible Version: 3.3.3

Outside of this Version the mod is not likely to function properly, including crashing.

It seems to be that many CK2 players don't understand that Eras/Bookmarks are not the only starts and you can play in about any timepoint.

Half elf traits don't show up for half elf children. They get whatever ethnicity from the father/mother but effectively fully human

In 8320, Annuminas is not only outside of the Kingdoms of the Dunedain, but also Wilderness instead of Arnorian.

Elendil is also Arnorian instead of Numenorean.

A few less important qualms that aren't bugs;
Minhiriath is Dunlending when it should be Arnorian (or after the 1409 conquest of most of Cardolan, Wilderness), Eryn Vorn is Druedain when it should be Dunlending, Andrast should be Wilderness, Gondor should extend far further east after the conquests of Turambar and Romendacil II, the lands between Umbar and South Gondor should be in Gondor after the conquests of Ciryaher/Hyarmendacil I, the Gladden Fields should be marshes and located more around the conflux of the Anduin and Gladden Rivers.

And if you ever decide to make the trip over the CK3, I'd suggest making the calendar begin at T.A 1 with Isildur starting as High-King.
