From the depths a light shall rise, a star of hope for all the World. As a darkness gathers, it shall stand mighty as the blade, and be the shield that shelters as well as the spear that drives to the heart of evil. Yet, as this light will shine, darkness will slither like a tendril of hate, like a fatal disease, and the star will be its slave. Alas, this is the fate of all things, yet most beautiful cruelty is in the fall of Numenor. This mod will bring you back to the Second Age, before the War of the Ring, when the Dark Lord Sauron sought to corrupt and destroy the hearts of Men which lay bound to the fate of Westernesse and both scatter the loyal Dunedain as well as bending to his will those with weaker hearts or demeanour. With an all-new campaign, two new factions, a specialised purpose-built Living Map for use in the War of the Ring mode, plus new maps to battle over, this truly expansive mod will reinvigorate your Battle for Middle-earth experience like never before!

Author's said that he wanted to create a world predating the movies. So this would be orthanc, only a few hunderd/thousand years before the movies took place. Naturally they'd look different.

Indeed, as you say, this is intended to represent an Isengard before the War of the Ring, established shortly after the landing of Númenórean refugees in Middle-earth. Hence, unlike the Orthanc of the Third Age, this has outer walls beyond the main ring housing those citizens unable to live in the underground caverns, walls which were later destroyed in the Dunlending invasions of the early Third Age.
