Best LOTR Mod Currently?

[Strategist]

I played Third Age with the Divide and Conquer submod I believe years ago. Is this still the best? I've also seen some LOTR mods on Attila and Shogun 2 but not sure if they are "finished" enough to have a proper experience. Generally I kinda hate Attila anyways.

Anyone thats played multiple have an opinion? Third Age was pretty dang good when I last played it.

You should not be able to see or find any Middle Earth or other copyright infringing mods online at all. The one specifically you are asking about is why Assembly Kit was never released for Empire and Napoleon. SEGA got lucky with Warhammer making them purchase that three part license. Tolkien's copyright holder as not so gentle and almost broke SEGA.

Ok, well that's not helpful. I know these mods exist so unless they got taken down, which it appears they haven't, then I would like to play.

I guess DaC is still the best Lord of the rings mod, the 5.0 update was pretty good.

There is also the Third age extended mod which looks interesting since it uses M2TWEOP but I haven´t played it yet.
