Also, the Kingdom of Arnor should have another colour. Salmon pink dosen't look very majestic.

The news events are like that on purpose. Making this mod a full-immersion mod isnt entirely feasible and games like EU4 or CK2 would be way more appropriate. Instead, this mod is meant more as a strange but fun Middle-Earth WW2 crossover. The absurdity of the events is where part of the humor is meant to come from.

I'll see what I can do for Arnors colour

I see. Love the mod nonetheless. The mod really does have potential though. Would not be surprised if someone down the road made a sub-mod focused on immersion.

After playing the mod for quite a bit, it feels like it strangely fit Hoi4. I think perhaps it is because Hoi4 is in itself quite “theme-parky”, and the LOTR universe fit that kind of game style.

The Moria Uprising should be Fascist vs Democratic and Communist Moria should be an alliance between Orcs/Dwarfes

Mate I really liked the idea of your mod, but the vanilla research and other vanilla stuff turned me down a lot.

Some things I have to suggest are:
Lotr themed :
Research
Unit names
Building Icons
GUI (like buttons, event windows, research icons and many many more)
Even graphics if a modelist can be found
Medieval Era Resources instead of Vanilla:
Wood
Copper
Iron
Medieval Oil
Gold
Leather
Mithril (if it can be mined in Tolkien's universe I haven;t searched that)

I can help on the coding part and even bring more ideas on the table. I read above that you want to keep this as a Lotr-WW2 crossover, but if you change your mind and want my help please contact me through here or a pm.

Awesome mod, needs planes changed to eagles/ring wraiths, tanks changed to trolls/ents, superheavy tanks to Oliphaunts, crossbows are great, artillery to trebs, motorized to horse carriage infantry, change modern ships to medieval. Cavalry changed to wargs for appropriate nations

Ring needs to change hands once the nation that found it is capitulated
Mordor needs the ability to reinstate the Witch King as leader of Angmar should they conquer it.

Where are the Dwarves of the Blue Mountains?
Helliaca  [developer] Mar 4, 2018 @ 7:32am 
They don't exist in the mod yet. They'll be implemented at some point
