Have you guys got a 'finished' tech-tree laying around anywhere? I think a fair handful of us would like to see it

Not in 100%.
I have created units list for Gondor and Mordor...and have done some other work.On this stage we are:
1)working on a full petition;
2)creating a lot of arts,models etc.
3)working on scenario
4)working on a new forum
5)and searching for new people =)
Next what i want to say...
I want to show you last upd on revora.It's unfinished art of werewolf by our new 2d artist
Why it's last upd?We want to show the World really perfect presentation.So we need a lot of materials.At this stage we are working on this
So, just wait some more time...and you'll see huge presentation and maybe a new official forum.
Hope, you'll waint for more info))))



Oh...and the art

That all looks very promising.
I wouldn't call it BFME 3 though. For one, it's not very original or inspiring, but naming it something else may also help in avoiding some legal issues.

Em....wait a minute...

What is it mean?Please, send PM to me.

It happens that more and more lotr fans become active again (On T3A mostly) and other places . This Mod may cause that even more people may come by .

And about the "Bfme 3" name of the mod , I'm not really sure what to say about it .The Title seems dull for such a project. (Maybe it's a marketing strategy ,people will think that this project is made by EA - for those who don't know they lost the License )

Now i understand you
I can agree with you.LOTR community is active now...but not a lot of people are interested in bfme,bfme2,rotwk and modding.It's realy sad.Russian community is "dead" too.
First my task is to make internation forum(and site) for this project.I want to join there a lot of people...Stop.Right now i'm telling you all my plans...i shouldn't do this)))

Well, that depends...
The games seem to be getting worse for each game.. BFME1 was awesome, BFME2 was not, RotWK sucked in general

In my opinion bfme and bfme2-best RTS games.Their gameplay is really unique!And we'll try to make it better

Ok, I'm having a few problems understanding this. Is this a mod for CnC3? Or is it something else? I mean, I understand this is trying to more or less remake an old game, unless you intend to make this a brand new game or something, but the rest is a bit unclear. That, and I don't want to waste my time for waiting for a mod that is for a game I don't even have....

I'll try explain you...
In this stage this is "mod" for CnC3.We are trying to make game which will be present to EA.I don't know what will be on future...but we have a hope that EA will support us.I have already a speech with EA manager...Only that i can say...our idea isn't bad =)
Every day our team work on this project.I think in near future we'll send a little presentation to EA and ask them permition to use "officialy" BFME3 brand.
That'll be a huge step forward.

I really doubt that EA will officially support you or endorse your efforts, seeing as they have to legal rights to do so or profit by it.

[khamulrulz]

the problem is that bfme3 can't be released with the new line or tolkien license, at least under ea. they lost the license to warner bros.

some questions, m.ruud, what new features do you plan to implement into this game? and what features are you keeping from bfme 1 and 2? also, what game modes will there be? just skirmish, or a campaign only? cheers.

In my opinion EA'll buy the license again.Just wait...
About new features:you will see them in our presentation

[NewErr]

Maybe when "The Hobbit" movies will be released .

[mike_]

If anything they'll make a bid for the license to "The Hobbit" license. I really don't see EA renewing the BFME license. You guys would do a lot better to keep doing your own thing and leave them out of the plan.

[Lauri]

I say;

Ditch the BFME3 name, make a new.
Keep it realistic, meaning, aim for making a mod, don't think you'll ever get to make a game out of it

Sure, who know what'll happen, but just saying that your chances are pretty pretty low... In fact I would say you don't have a chance, but you can never say never..

[Dragonzilla]

Just rename it Battle for Middle Earth Legends, Battle for Middle Earth: A New Age, Battle for Middle Earth: Dawn of the Ring or something.

Why?I'll use this name(BFME 3 DEMO)

[NewErr]

Damn, your guard from your signature ...

I say the name is .. easy to change .. so let's just not worry about it now . The project itself is what matter , and it's going great .
