Well we planned on releasing it before 3am gmt but the installer caused us some problems so we're only an hour late ^_^ .

Anyway here it is. The Fall Of Sauron Mod, in its first public release.....ever :p

The mod has most main things in it. Including some....surprises :p. The mod has a new intro movie(wip as we couldnt finish the proper one in time) and new splash screens etc.

We have not included a finished campaign in this release. BUT sort of a trailer as such into what will be there :grin:

This Release Includes:

· Moria
· Lothlorien
· Amon Hen
· Eaves of Fangorn
· Isengard
· Helms Deep


Download Instructions:

The files are stored in this directory here

please note the following.

This is the current readme file for the mod. One day we will have a proper pdf containing tech trees and stuff but for now just plain old text.

This here is the audio folder for the campaign. Some missions have been ported from bfme1 therefore if u want to hear the sounds (+ some new backing tracks) then you need to download this file. Please note that this is a one off download, you will only need to download it once.

and this is probably the most important one cause its a link to the actual mod file. If you get stuck when installing refer to the readme file.

Well enough said go and play the mod :)

The official site for the mod is non existent as i couldnt be bothered making a whole new site for our "small" mod.

but you can check out theForums if your feeling that way inclined.


On a side note we are still looking for more modders to join the team. So if your interested send me a pm :)

Update: EAW Galaxy is almost ready for launch. We're currently in need of forum staff and content writers for the main site. Please PM or Email me ASAP.

BFME Fans if you think you have what it takes, bfmeworld.com would love to be built. I have neither the time, nor the motivation any longer...

my GOD talk about dredging up a dead topic.

I remember this particular beta. IT WILL NOT WORK. it will run only on 1.03 of BFME2.

The mod is out of date and no longer supported.

www.valarian.org for info on the mods new incarnation.
