  • The dream of a LORD OF THE RINGS TOTAL WAR is no longer just a dream - it's quickly shaping up to be fully fledged reality. In this video, I have worked alongside The Dawnless Days modding team to bring you all-new, never-before-seen campaign footage and information of what The Dawnless Days Lord of the Rings campaign will look like, which mechanics will be vital to pay attention to, which factions will be available at launch, and so on.

    The fact that this Lord of the Rings mod - nay - essentially a full LOTR Total game in its own right, has come this far, looks this good, and appears so deep - well, it does bring a tear to a man's eye. An immense amount of effort and passion has gone into making this mod be where it is today, and it seems we're nowhere near the finish line. Who knew Total War Attila had more secrets up its sleeve?
    If you enjoy what you see here today, please let the team know how much you love their work in the comment section. And as always, if you liked the video, I sincerely hope you'll leave a like and subscribe to the channel :)

    I think one of the most exciting things for this mod over Third Age or DaC isn't really the graphics, but the relaxing of the hard-coded faction limit. Imagine going around and fighting or playing as minor factions that arent just "rebels" littering the map. I love me some smaller starts and maps that actually feel populated with a bunch of factions, clans, and kingdoms.
