This is a (skirmish) mod created with the intention to bring the feeling of the Lord of the Rings & Hobbit movies into the old RTS game Battle for Middle Earth II, and add "realism" through new models and severe re-balancing of the entire game! BETA 4.5 was released in Nov 2007. New version, "Director's Cut" is under development... ///Nazgûl of The 3rd Age Forums

During the War of the Ring it was here that Aragorn lead the Hobbits, they needed a sign from Gandalf.
"On the western flank of Weathertop they found a sheltered hollow, at the bottom of which there was a bowl-shaped dell with grassy sides. There they left Sam and Pippin with the pony and their packs and luggage. The other three went on. After half an hour's plodding climb Strider reached the crown of the hill; Frodo and Merry followed, tiered and breathless. The last slope had been steep and rocky."
"On the top they found, as Strider had said, a wide ring of ancient stonework, now crumbling or covered with age-long grass." (The Fellowship of the Ring, J. R. R. Tolkien.)
They found on a small cairn a G rune. But on Weathertop they had revealed themselves to all eyes in the surrounding country. That night they were besieged by the Nazgul.
