The Argonath would presumably be unlocked with either Divine Right or Engineering, and would presumable provide bonus culture for every current or previous golden/heroic age, or something like that

It would be cool if there were wonders like the ones in the LOTR universe as well, though that would be quite an undertaking

Excelent mod, need more works and for my POV can be improved very much. Anxious for next updates!

i hope one day you return and are able to work on this mod again. At the very least remove the ability to traverse mountains as i loved the idea of building a helms deep hidden away however cant as enemies can just walk over the mountains into it :(. i hope life is treating you well and whatever your endeavours your thriving in them <3 thank you for what you have done at the very least.

Just one word: Unbalanced.
Nice to play for fun, but you cannot play it competative.

Brilliant mod, unfortunately its got some game breaking bugs, and it doesn't look like it will be updated. Damn shame because I love it. Maybe somebody else could pick it up and fix it?

I like how you did the leaders! Not bad choices.

Is there a mod to change the Tech tree on this so it's just middle age based?

@Aldollin, I am so happy you are focusing on your education/life. I just wanted to say a huuuge thank you for the work you put into this mod. Has added a huge amount of enjoyment.

Bro why include walking over mountains without mentioning it in the description? It was very hard to find out which one of my mods is causing the walking on mountains...

Hello. I wonder if we can have more than 1 million gold ? as I am playing Thror and with the 1% interest each turn based on my treasury, I am around 800k gold now and it is going faster . I want to avoid some bug. Hope I am clear. T6hank you

I was unable to load this today. I tried with Standard and R&F. No luck.
Could there be compatibility issues with other mods?
When you all load this, do you turn your other mods off?
thanks in advance for the help.

seems related to the nazgul unit, being within 4 tiles causes units to take damage each time the sauron player ends turn (which can happen an arbitrary number of times per turn in MP)
CrispyChestnuts Jun 6, 2023 @ 6:14pm 
Also getting that, Sauron can just end and resume turn to vaporize units he's looking at it seems
Eclipse Wolfheart Jun 3, 2023 @ 11:35am 
Not sure if it is a feature or a bug but I am sauron and when my teammate has units in my territory they lose health each turn either 15, 10, or 5. Anyone else getting this or know a cause?

Is walking on mountain tiles a feature from this mod ?
If yes how can i turn it off
Frostt1988 Mar 1, 2023 @ 12:10am 
Just letting you know todays update made all your mods incompatible now :( a sad day. i wish you well with your studies and look forward to being able to enjoy your mods again, updated and polished when time permits. take care.
TheShmeatMan Jan 11, 2023 @ 4:15am 
Between getting an education and updating a mod for a dead game, I'd also make the objectively correct choice and focus on education, wishing you well mate!
Aldollin  [author] Dec 13, 2022 @ 12:05am 
I want to continue and finish updating the mod, but due to some real life / uni stuff i just dont have the time/energy do work on it a lot currently.

Update will happen, but it might still take a while.
diamond_ten Dec 12, 2022 @ 7:45pm 
Any word if Aldollin or anyone has decided to move forward with updating this mod?
I realize it would take time just wondering is there hope that it is on the horizon or is it just too much work and will stay as is? Thanks for any update

Hello I am a huge fan of lotr and have only just discovered your mod which I must say was very well done. I however noticed you haven't worked on it in some time & I'd like to donate/pay you to get an updated and new version going. Very similar however focusing the 7 kingdoms & removing the mountain issue others have complained about, maybe balancing it into gold & production bonuses for dwarves in place of units traversing. This would be a big project which I would fund and pay you for. If interested I'll petition for permissions and rights to use copyrighted assets and attempt to get Sean bean to voice the civ intros in addition as he may be interested being a fan of the franchise. Please inbox me for my business email if interested in discussing further. Whatever your decision, I commend you on a magnificent mod, would love to see it reach it's full potential.

Amazing mod. One of my favorite, but I would add/change some things. Moving on mountain tiles is game breaking. I would make for Dwarves only to be able to make tunnels ealier perhaps or something like that. Also, where are the Urukai? Besides that, great work! Lots of fun.
diamond_ten Oct 10, 2022 @ 10:13pm 
Brilliant! Cannot wait Aldollin, so glad you are back at it!
Mythrix Oct 1, 2022 @ 11:28am 
Nice mod, but I feel that traversable mountains thing needs to be clearly flagged in the description. It's a game breaker for me and took me ages to figure out that it was this mod causing it.
Karltastisk Sep 30, 2022 @ 10:15am 
Hope this get updated soon, and would love to see some easterling civilization :)
ferentas Sep 17, 2022 @ 11:43am 
Do you have a buy me a coffee page?
Josh_Brady91 Sep 17, 2022 @ 5:47am 
Does this MOD work with the latest patch of CIV?
Aldollin  [author] Jul 24, 2022 @ 6:35am 
Thats how mountain travel is currently set up in this version. Everybody gets to move over mountains, but everybody except dwarves take damage when staying on mountains.

Im not too happy with it, but it was the best way i could think of to make mountain travel work for dwarves (before Mountain Tunnels and other Inca related features were a thing).

The new updated version will not have that and will instead do something more similar to the Inca for the dwarves, but currently thats how it is.

It seems that when this mod is loaded, all my units regardless of my civilization become able to traverse mountain tiles. Is there a way to prevent this?

[To Aldollin] I've had my eye on this mod for quite a long while now (considering that Lord of the Rings is one of the media that influenced me the most in my personal life), and for several months I've been wanting to ask you if I can help you out in updating this mod.... the only reason I hesitated for several months is because I wanted to get some actual mods done before I asked you, to make my legitimacy as a civ 6 modder more authentic.... Today I'm listening to Shire music and felt a motivation to check the status of this mod... Saw your comment from 19 hours ago, it's really good news to see!

As a fellow modder myself, I'm volunteering to help you out if you'll accept it! I'd love to see the quality of this mod at its finest! :>

Aldollin  [author] May 30, 2022 @ 2:24am 
Since many people have been asking about this:

I started working on updating the mod. No promises on how long it will take!

With all the new mechanics in the expansions and patches there are tons of new things i can use to better implement the ideas i had for all the civs, so i am reworking all the civs for the current game.
For example, Dwarves that use Mountains in similar ways to the Inca, Nazgul that work like Vampires, Wormtongue as a unique Governor similar to the one of Suleiman.

That will mean that the new version will require most if not all of the DLC, but if there is demand for it i will make a legacy version for the vanilla game (which will have the older/less intresting civ abilities)
jjuliancho1313 May 29, 2022 @ 5:10pm 
Really nice mod, it would be great if this could be updated
StepsonOfKrypton May 25, 2022 @ 8:38pm 
so sauron got nerfed at some point? its kind of a trade-off i guess, since the nazgul spawns with several promotions active already..
mefungpoo May 10, 2022 @ 7:13pm 
update update update update!
please?
thijn7835 Mar 10, 2022 @ 2:18am 
would love to see this mod updated! loved it back in the day!
Atlas Aug 29, 2021 @ 1:46pm 
just discovered this, i concur.... really hope it gets an update
Karltastisk Aug 1, 2021 @ 8:14am 
Hope this gets a frontier pass update. Its a shame to let this great mod go to waste.
VanillaFrosting Feb 21, 2021 @ 10:56am 
Its doesn't work anymore it seems even when its the only mod.
Aven Oul Feb 4, 2021 @ 3:02pm 
update?
e2ader Jan 23, 2021 @ 8:01am 
Is this still being worked on? This is amazing and I want more.
WeirdQuestions Nov 1, 2020 @ 1:34am 
Uhh is it supposed to automaticly put mines over your mountains the turn after you settle?
DooKuu¸.•'¯) Oct 29, 2020 @ 6:34am 
Yo this sounds and seems like an amazing mod can anyone confirm this is up to date and working with the latest Pirates update?
Keansor Aug 29, 2020 @ 5:52pm 
I'm really impressed at how balanced it is compared to the other fantasy civ mods out there though!
Keansor Aug 29, 2020 @ 5:51pm 
At a glance, Azog seems kinda busted. Sythia's double light cavalry is fine because light cavalry is meant more for pillaging and harass rather than combat, and if you try anti-cavalry just wrecks them. Double infantry AND anti-cavalry means there's no way to counter it.
Earithramir Aug 26, 2020 @ 1:24pm 
i can see you updated this to work with GS...do you have a direct download for this mod that's not steam linked? I own the game outside of steam so it wont let me download the mod from Steam. Please share an updated link as the existing one is for an old version of this mod.
Rastajam777 Aug 5, 2020 @ 6:42pm 
Please Update, its been about a year now and im dying to play this old mod again. its the best all around lotr mod
Scynthius May 26, 2020 @ 1:18pm 
how can i get those dummys?
Cherokee Gage Apr 29, 2020 @ 11:25am 
Would it be possible to get an actual barad-dur fortress model for the capital of mordor that replaces the palace model?
