The war of the valar will bring to life the first, second, and early third ages of arda with new factions like the eldar, dunedain, khazad, and angband. New spell tree abilities will be added as well as an improved ai system, and a new hero system. The new hero system will only take place in the new skrimish trigger maps.The map will consist of 3 silmarils. Once these silmarils are brought to a maia of players that team (i.e. Sauron, gandalf, etc) they will be able to call forth an ainur such as manwe or melkor.

With huge progress made toward the Angband faction we may start offering in game screenshots sometime soon. The War of the Valar has quickly and greatly progressed since its initialization roughly 5 weeks ago. Planning has become a much larger process than originally anticipated, but it is turning out quite well. The building in this image is called the volcanic shaft. It will be used to generate resources by players using the angband faction. If there is anything you guys want to see next, make a suggestion in the forums, on our page, feel free to PM me (i will answer).

you should have for the elder fractions to choose between what kind of elves like Vanyar , Noldor , Teleri and for the noldor they should bye something like a hero horde in it is the sons of feanor
There are representatives of all besides the Vanyar, mainly because they pretty much stayed in Valinor since before the First Age. Feanor will have his own little mini-faction whereby he is able to summon his stronghold and recruit his sons, etc. A similar system works for Ulfang, basically, their respective houses become available and at level 8, you can summon a citadel (permanent) in which camps are established. Because we only have 4 factions, we're able to make each faction really big and diverse, so if you want to rush, you can, but if you actually enjoy Tolkien and prefer to not play a 4 minute game to brag on forums, this mod has a deep enough structure to take you to the First Age.
Structures are stronger, everything has multiple levels (e.g. resource buildings are all 3 levels of structure), etc. More of a mod to play for epic First Age style battles, lots of work has gone into atmosphere and ensuring there are no residual elements from the Third Age to taint the feeling of it. If you look at zezkersar's insane skill with structures, there was heaps of pressure on me to actually compile the ideas to match it hahaha
So, flame to our arses, I don't think we'll forget anything :)

Whoever comments on this comment, with good mod input, will get a copy of the mod 48 hours before beta release! ;)
