[Disclaimer: English is not my main language, so please bear with the mistakes that will be in the text and the horror of the grammar of my message]

I really liked the mod, even though playing for the first time as Rohan Isengard, he just forgot about me and had fun with the ents the whole game.

I wish the mod all the best and hope that it will develop.

RS: I hope someday there will be content in Minas Ithil about Talion from the game Shadow of war. It would be fun.

Understood thank you for replying
Helliaca  [author] Jun 25 @ 1:40pm 
@Api_Pie Yes, we would like to have more custom models. For the dwarves, but also for some custom units, like Mûmakil or trolls. The problem is, these are not always easy to source or make.
For dwarves, specifically, we wouldn't be able to use the same animations as for a human-sized rig.
Api_Pie Jun 25 @ 7:29am 
Why do these elves and easterlings get their own model to show who they are and what they look like

while the dwarves have to remain looking like men?
will this be changed in the future for dwaves to look like dwarves?

The mod is class, 100%. I cant wait for another update, i would ask that you update the focus for Erebor and add a focus for Lindon. Though i have to say a bit more flavour is needed as i'm struggling to do anything fun as i've done most of the paths, but in the end its one of my favourite mods. I'm looking foward to the updates.

Playing Isengard, AI go thru my units like butter, something wrong with the units stats for sure.
Azi Karnage Jun 9 @ 4:49am 
Your focus tree can be made redundant by a random nation using influence
Helliaca  [author] May 31 @ 2:36pm 
@devlos Yes, we just have to find the time to get it done. But the plan is to replace those eventually
devlos May 31 @ 7:44am 
Will train models be changed to a more lore friendly version? And fighting sounds and other sounds. Can it even be done per faction?
Jeffzta May 30 @ 7:30pm 
@unwordly Yeah i get the same issue. Even with maxxed out templates and up to date equipment, the ai just runs through my divisions like they are nothing. I am even winning in stats but somehow lose way too much org than what i should be doing. Found any fixes?
Helliaca  [author] May 27 @ 11:22am 
@TK2030 Keep in mind that not all the assets in this mod are mine. Some are licensed (bought) exclusively for this mod and I'm not at liberty to give permission for them. This primarily concerns some of the UI elements, animations and a select few models.

As for everything I've made myself, you can use it (if you provide credit). You can let me know what you intend to use, and I can tell you more.
TK2030 May 27 @ 7:20am 
@Helliaca hello kind sir, I was wondering if I could have permisison to use some of your assets on my Game of Thrones mod, you would of course be fully credited with a link to your mod on the steam description, kind regards, TK2030.
Whoever worked on the UI, absolutely amazing work, captured the essence of other lotr games using the same kind of style

nice

This mod is amazing. Currently playing as the shire and turned it into the brotherhood of hobbits. Why? Because you can. 🎵THE HOBBITS ARE TAKING ISENGARD🎵

Is there any way to make the Fellowship actually succeed? Playing on Historical Focus and most of the time Sam is killed and Frodo is caught by Mordor somewhere after the fellowships separates.
ImperatorBarsidos Apr 25 @ 1:35pm 
You should add an alternate way in the mordor focus tree and add talion as a democratic ruler it would be pretty cool!
Cybysek Apr 24 @ 2:18pm 
bruh, no way. LOTR in HoI4

UPDATE
Helliaca  [author] Apr 18 @ 6:19am 
@GeneralMacek It's largely down to luck. Be sure not to send just any generals on a hunting party, but only those who have enough attack to kill Frodo in one hit.
GeneralMacek Apr 18 @ 5:07am 
May I ask for any tips on how to get the Ring as Isengard?

By the way, this is easily one of my most favorite HoIIV mods. :)
Helliaca  [author] Apr 14 @ 11:23am 
@Shadow arrow You choose a group of up to nine of your generals to attack the fellowship. That's your hunting party. Some of your generals may die, but if one of your generals kill Frodo, you get the ring.
If under the Fellowship decisions you click "View Details", there's a question-mark in the top right that gives some instructions.
Shadow arrow Apr 13 @ 4:58pm 
can you explain hunting parties please i still can't figure it out
aerouge Apr 8 @ 7:16am 
Playing as Rohan, Erkenbrand as governor of Westemnet wants me to appoint him as an army advisor ... unfortunately he not present in any of the advisor positions ... am I missing an event somewhere or is this a bug?
Helliaca  [author] Apr 7 @ 12:12pm 
@kajett Very possible. A lot of mods aren't compatible. If you need an instant wargoal, you could always use the console
kajett Apr 6 @ 9:57pm 
i believe instant war isn't compatible
Shadow arrow Apr 4 @ 3:33pm 
i really don't understand hunting parties
Yizu Mar 22 @ 1:45pm 
Is there any way to increase the chances/guarantee Rhudaur Cardolan and the Shire letting themselves be annexed by Arnor, I already know about the Advisor you can get to increase the chances, but he doesnt seem to help much
The Harbinger of Death Mar 22 @ 12:08pm 
how do you actually change your governors during the landsmeet as rohan?
Helliaca  [author] Mar 22 @ 11:35am 
@wolfiee Sounds like you might be using an additional mod that isn't compatible, or perhaps a different HoI4 version that isn't 1.15
Helliaca  [author] Mar 22 @ 11:34am 
@PersianKing they will respawn, but only if they didn't die in the process. You can check the Event-Log of the fellowship system to see if they do
PersianKing Mar 22 @ 6:13am 
Hi, first time playing the mod. Does someone know if the Nazgul will respawn if they failed to get the ring?
wolfiee Mar 22 @ 4:40am 
right at the start if i choose a new unit im booted everytime
Helliaca  [author] Mar 16 @ 6:12am 
@malle You have to hire the correct chief advisor. (The one who turns you belligerent)
malle Mar 15 @ 7:59am 
when i play as angamar there is no option to turn to the orc side or am i just not finding it
landenganderson Mar 10 @ 5:45pm 
When i load a game with any faction im stuck with 0 manpower which deletes all my units immidiatly and makes me loose at the onset of the first war
Unworldly Mar 4 @ 5:37pm 
Enjoy the mod. Can't ever seem to progress though. It reaches a point where I am dominating and pushing to the point of winning and then the A.I. for the other nation flips a switch and suddenly is twice as fast as I am and hits way harder.

Been playing Hoi4 for a long time and usually dominate most games I play so this stands out as unusual. Experienced this playing as Mordor and Gondor and a friend had the same thing playing as Rohan.

I tried this on the easiest mode with max buffs for the nations to see if it impacted that and experienced the same thing.

Do you have something on the A.I. side where they get stronger under certain conditions?
Helliaca  [author] Feb 17 @ 12:02pm 
@aswifty2019 Switching your Renderer to DirectX9 (launcher settings) typically fixes that issue
SWIFT7 Feb 17 @ 3:10am 
The Factory have white box's over were the chimneys are on the 3d model
Helliaca  [author] Feb 14 @ 11:27am 
@Mira Perhaps eventually. But I can make no promises
Mira Feb 14 @ 7:48am 
Will there ever be added more 3D models. Like ents, spiders from mirkwood etc... ?
Soulss Feb 4 @ 1:02am 
Amazing looking mod thank you for your work!
CJ Jan 30 @ 1:41pm 
Can't do Arthedains "Heir of Isildur" focus, he did not invite Aragorn to Minas Tirith and I still can't. Any clue how to do this?
The Harbinger of Death Jan 26 @ 11:26am 
ahh okay, i thought it would let me like replace 2 of the governors grima appointed, thanks!
Helliaca  [author] Jan 26 @ 5:16am 
@The Harbinger of Death You will get events in which you can choose which regions and which leader to appoint.
Note that it only works if you (or Grima) hasn't completed the respective "Deal with the X" focus yet.
The Harbinger of Death Jan 25 @ 8:38pm 
when playing as rohan and doing the landsmeet focus, how do i actually change the governors of regions?
Helliaca  [author] Jan 25 @ 6:53am 
@Buddy_Craft If the free orcs of Mordor win in Mordor, an exiled Sauron can re-emerge in Angmar
