I've started reading the book and I thought it would be a great idea to make a civ 3 mod based on it. :)

I've played many scenarios on Warcraft 3 about the book and the 3 groups would be:

Sindar, Noldor, and Melkor's evil minions

Tell me what you guys think!!!

Don't know if it is still active, though.

It is still active, although somewhat sleepily. They're slowly putting final touches on unit lines, and I dunno what else, fixing the odd bug here or there?

Thanks for the help guys! I've tried downloading Lord of the Mods before but it didn't work but I did download the other Lord of the Rings mod and loved it! And I hope joycem 10 will finish the silmarillion scenario!

We (LotM) talked about making a Sil scenario/mini-mod way back in the day, but I think that was assuming we would get the mod out in a timely manner and still have a strong and active team. :hmm: LotM still might make a good base for such a scenario.

3 civs eh? There are a lot more groups than that in Beleriand. Dwarves, Easterlings, and Edain, for instance.

What about LotM didn't work for you?

The mod is in rar format. My winzip can't open those files and the last time I downloaded a program that opens rar it was very confusing trying to open the file. :confused:

Download WinRAR. There are no fiddly bits with it, it just takes over from WinZIP :)
