Despite I think this is an awesome idea and I've ALWAYS wanted LOTR in Battlefront style, just beware the Halogen problem. It was when this awesome Halo mod for C and C generals were shut down by Bungie/EA (Forgot who) after soon announcing Halo Wars. I don't think companies like people making mods that take purpose away from their new games.
Anyways, great find though, and it would propel this forum to the forefront of Conquest modding
Another legal thing. You're distributing BFME files onto a different game, I don't think they're quite fond of that either. So I'd advise using hand made models.
Hence why I'm approaching all the talented modellers here to see if they would like to have their models used instead of bfme's models.
And if Pandemic hasn't shut down Dann Boeing's insane 60's acid trip mod map, they would also be fine with this..
And yeah, I'm going to be one of the few people with mods out for LOTRC within a week of the mod tools being released for it. =)
