Wars of the Firstborn is a modification based on the discontinued Ridder Clan Mod for The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II and for The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II - The Rise of the Witch-King expansion, which focuses on bringing to life as much of the Elven world from Tolkien’s epic as possible.

Description

This is NOT a new release. Since the launcher is not working anymore and you cannot get the files from the cloud, here is a re-upload of version V3.01 of the mod. You need to manually configure the mod to make it work since my effort are towards the new release.

Are there only 4 factions in a singleplayer? Why on any map, except (VS) i don't have workers? And my problem with 3-minutes defeat saved after fix procedure. Pls, help!

Yes, and the worker problem is due to the Voting System (VS. The fixer should work tho, adding the correct registry. Do you happen to have other copy of the mod or something similar?

The instructions are on the download page. Give me a pm where you are stuck. I don't think it works with ROTWK 2.02, never tested it.

In theory, if you have BFME2 installed, regardless of patch it should work. It's the same process as ROTWK would work on it's own regardless of what BFME2 patch you have installed. But then again, weird stuff can happen so I wouldn't bet on that. But like I said, I never tested.

Hi, I'm new. I use from the tranzator. Create a channel on Youtube and make a movie as it installs. It will help some people. I do not even know how to install.I think I installed badly because when I turn on the singles, it only includes the beginning and the games do not turn on. I have windows above 8.

there is a problem in create a hero system, only elf and female human options available with the same skills, nothing to click on in the species section but it seems there is some buttons hidden because you hear a sound when you hover over them but still not clickable.

Reply Good karma Bad karma+1 vote

NewErr - - 828 comments

Ahh, yes, in the latest release there is only elf and female CAC. This is actually a preview of what CAC should have been. At the species there is no selection as it is by default elf or human when you selected your class, in the next version it would have more options.

Unfortunately, since Ridder Geel is no longer working on this project, the CAC feature has been abandoned in the future releases.

The V2.00 version has a pretty decent CAC.
