Hello and welcome back to another Kingdoms of Arda video! Today I’m taking you through all the noteworthy factions we have planned to include in Kingdoms of Arda, the Lord of the Rings Mod for Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord. This Bannerlord Mod is a very ambitious project that will be split into several releases. The First Release will include Gondor, Mordor, Isengard, Rohan, Dunland and Harad along with a few smaller factions. There’s still no official release date, but when there is, you’ll be able to hear about it on this channel.

When your hype for a mod based on a game not yet fully released is higher than the hype for any actual AAA game coming out now... real life story
true words...
Maybe if those AAA titles were any good maybe they'd get that hype too.
indeed
I hope your capacity for patience is greater than it is for getting hyped.
This and the last days of middle earth are the best LOTR games out there lol
Bannerlord is gonna sell like hotcakes once this is released.
definitely, im just waiting for major mods to release than ill buy bannerlord
@@ahoosifoou4211 there's a pretty cool Warhammer mod out now, and also 1 or 2 Game of Thrones mods. Then there's Eagle Rising and other Roman mods in development (Burning Empires, seems to be a large mod as well). Also the Star Wars mod (Separatist Crisis) just released footage of gameplay and may soon release an alpha or something, hard to tell
This will legit be the greatest LOTR game of all time (and there’s a great many that are amazing).
@@MrNorbo95 There's also a great many that are meh XD Thanks though!
@@MacbethofGondor I honestly think this will top LOTRO and BFME. Good luck!
Man, with that many major factions in the game, it's going to take me so many playthroughs to play all of them ;)
Yeah and just remember that each major faction will have a faction quest. For Durin's Folk it will be to reclaim Moria. Imagine facing the balrog and a horde of goblins with your Dwarven brethren
@@MacbethofGondor Yikes that will be epic!
Baruk khazad
Bro wish I can travel to the future and play the game. Being a Dwarven warriors is what I'm waiting for lol.
@@MacbethofGondor stop it man I need to contain my excitement since this mod probs take as long to make as bannerlord did LOL
🌟UPDATE:🌟 After discussing with the team yesterday, we concluded that players should indeed be able to take control of Minor factions as well (Dorwinion etc.) It might be slightly different and more simplistic than for the major factions however, so keep that in mind. Thanks for watching and all the support guys!
May the light of Eärendil shine upon the mod, so that a release may come sooner than later!
Subtitles have also been added to the video, in case anyone find those helpful.
Good news for many, I'm sure. I always like the "weak faction" : Dale, Dunedain, Dorwinion,...
So Thanks for that.
@@simondemoulin5815 yup😁
I was about to go to your discord and ask why on earth this was a thing, glad you guys decided to change it!
@@GingerRæfill Am I the only one who think that weak factions (lore wise, with a big problem at hand or with no previous "big empire" before them) rising and achieving victory are more satisfying than with "big player of this world" with big territory from the start, previous glory or because "DESTINY !!!" ?
Hi, thank you for this! Really excited for the project. One request: When you get to the Easterlings please give them proper gold coloration. They are my favorite faction and the TW: Rise of Mordor mod completely diluted the gold in their armor and makes them look bad. Please use other sources for inspiration such as the Games Workshop models and also the original TW: Third Age mod instead for their look (that mod has a really cool look for the easterling archers) 🙌
I believe this mod will be remembered for years, keep up the good work
hopefully decades! XD
yeah I agree I played DaC on total awr and still kept going back to it. I guess this mod will also be like that with multiple playthroughs
This will probably outshine bannerlord itself
I'm just afraid that I will get banned like the Skyrim mod
@@medievalist8441 not probably, definitely. We all know how bland the game is, LoTR will breathe life to it.
Seeing Lotr community growing strong in every moddable game such as: Mount&Blade, Medieval 2 and Atilla fills my heart with hope.
Good job and salute to *Kingdoms of Arda* team! May the Eru bless and protect you. ♥
check out crusader kings 3, theres am ambitious lotr mod in development as well :D
@@stijnvanbezouwen6443 Yea, I've seen. It has a great potencial :D
Theres also a Minecraft mod, well done, with the whold map too
And there's an old mod for Rome with Alexander expansion.
what a time to be able
Wow... The playthroughs for this mod are going to be legendary in terms of length and immersion.
Unbelievably awesome!
This mod is crazy ambitious, this is what the gamin industry is missing. Passion, it has lost its soul to over corporatism. These are truely great developers like we had back in the 2000’s.
Thank you for your work here Macbeth
I think you are the one driveing the hype train with your videos and im glad to be a passanger on this train to middleearth.
Glad you liked it!
Glad to hear players will be able to control minor locations and build their own small factions in Middle Earth
ALSO HOLY SHIT AGANDAUR, that brought back a lot of nostalgia.
Right now, I'm replaying The last day of the third age in Mount of Blade: Warband; it has undoubtedly reawoken my interest in this project, so keep the updates coming. They are fantastic!
Alt held på vejen min danske ven :)
jeg hvist ikke at han var dansk (sorry lived in america for 12 years forgot how to write xd)
I wanna just clean out every infestation of evil on the entire face of Arda, and then at the end - and ONLY THEN. Frodo can just walk up and plop the ring into Mount Doom on a red carpet.
It don't matter how much time it's gonna take, I will get it done! *shakes fist at sky*
Your Voice is so relaxing
Thanks man!
This could be its own game, hands down greatest work I’ve seen real triple tier stuff. Love how passionate and in depth this project is. Greatest thing I’ve seen along with bfme II Reforged. Can’t wait to Play.
The best mods are for all intents and purposes their own game and they effectively leave the original in the dust
1st playthrough: Ithilien ranger & once the forbidden pool falls defender of osgiliath
2nd playthrough: Dunedain ranger, conquering fornost
3rd playthrough: Rohan rider
4th playthrough: Mordor (how could you resist the trolls)
:( what about the dwarves ,my fav faction
:( what about the dwarves ,my fav faction
@@vagodinfir1636 I love the dwarves, definitely my favorite race in middel-earth!
Somehow they have never really been done justice in mods, like third age and m&b warband the last days.
But you're right looking forward to seeing them here!
@@vincent4205 check out TLD Overhaul mod,it changes the armor and weapons of the dwarves,they look more like the movie version
@Nandish Mahabir ohh ic,its gonna be a long wait then!
This feels almost impossibly ambitious and I love it
Oh my Eru Ilúvatar!! How can I be patient after seeing this!!!
May the light of Eärendil shine upon your patience
Oh boy, so many plans... Anyway, good luck with the mod guys, you are on the way of making something gorgeous :)
This mod will make so many peoples dreams come true.
Looking forward to this....
I'm so hyped for this mod! So many playable races ahhhh I'm so excited
I haven't even bought bannerlord yet, but whenever this mod comes out, I definitely will, just to play this mod. I can see that you and the modding team are very passionate about this project and so am I! I'll definitely keep watching these videos and stay excited for this mod. Thank you for your hard work!
Gonna be legendary
So excited i'm shaking!!!! Can't wait to play it!!!
Same!
The quality of your videos are unbelievable and make me hyped for what is to come. This is my most anticipated game of all time, no joke. Keep up the good work!
Massively ambitious! Even a fraction of the planned content would blow my mind. Wish you guys all the luck with the project, and looking forward to more updates!
Definitely looking forward to this. Glad to know y’all are working on it and I’m super excited. Seems like this is going to be better than the base game in every way.
I can already imagine myself swaying over the neutral factions and destroying the bandit factions first. I'm hyped
This mod looks absolutely incredible. Keep up the amazing work and take your time, we'll all be ecstatic to see it when it comes.
Looking absolutely phenomenal! Can't wait to see what options there will be to become a leader in your own right and vie for control with other factions :D
Eh bien... This looks very ambitious - I will certainly play it after release, for I am thrilled at the idea of playing in this world you unfold before us (though I might need an update of graphic card to play it fluidly).
I salute your ambitions and passion, shout out to the team - I can't wait to see more of this great project !
Na lû e-govaned vîn, nevaer and good luck ! ♥
I adore all your hard work, you're doing a amazing job on this mod. I'm looking forward to play it!
I’m so excited for this! Also when you plotted the map this way. It’s really show how world-war like the war of the ring is, and how middle earth’s geography and factions resemble Europe’s.
This promise to be insane, thanks a lot for all your work on that!
This is amazing! I look forward to when I start playing this best mod ever! Thank you for all the work you are doing.
My pleasure!
I'm looking forward to this more than any other modding project or game out there. It's also nice to see Agandaur return from War of the North. Angmar has always been one of the more interesting lands to me, and one of my favorites, especially after LOTRO with Mordirith, The False King. Even if it's small, I'm still happy to see it will be playing a part in the North. Keep up the good work and thank you!
Man, i can't wait to play as the Woodland Realm
It's a really cool faction, no doubt
Personally I can’t wait to start in Rivendell and restore the realm of Eregion, becoming an independent Elven faction.
@@CeruleanSword hell yeah. Maybe rp as a member of the House of the golden flower. I always liked the Teleri, like the woodelves, because they are wilder and less wise, hence more relatable.
But.man oh man would I looooooove to play as a noldor
It'll be so cool to play those all major factions.
oh ma gawddd....
cant wait for this stuff...
amazing work man..
hope you all the best!
beautiful, been here since the begining. can't wait!
I already see myself doing a couple of thousands campaings. What you and the team is doing is amazing. Keep up the awesome work! And thank you very much for putting so much dedication in this beautiful mod.
We will!
My upmost gratitude for all this effort you are putting in!
Oh, really lovely to see you growing up as a youtube channel, i remember the times when you had like 10-50 likes on a video and now already 551 ;) keep going lord !
Thank you! May thy sword smoke with bloody execution like Valour's minions!
Absolutely epic, beautiful job, very thorough - the one mod to rule them alllllll!!!
Taleworlds should just pay you guys millions of dollars to make a lotr game using their game engine. Seriously this stuff is super impressive I haven't played bannerlord in months but I just got done modding skyrim. Looks like I've got another project coming up! 😂
Finally was able to watch this!! I’m so hyped, can’t wait for the trailer
And yet another day here I am rewatching this video…
Mesmerized by the size and depth of this mod…
After watching the video i'm just siting here for 5 minutes trying to figure out what to type...And i cant come up with anything but compliments .This is the only TH-cam channel where i leave a comment,and its always a positive one.I honestly don't know what to say this is just awesome.I don't think i will play the first release because i want to experience the game when its completely finished.I really hope you guys have a lot of fun making the mod and i really appreciate that you are making this mod that we can all play for free.Telewords should reward you guys after the first release because this is not just a lil mod this will feel like an new game.
Well if you don't play the first release you will be missing out on a lot of fun for years :P Yeah no doubt the mod will increase their sales, but them giving us money, might be a problem.
Also I've seen many of your comments, if not all :D If you like the channel this much, you can now also become a member and enjoy a few different perks - like images from scenes I work on, emojis custom badges, member polls where you decide what I show next and more stuff will come in time. It's the cheapest membership option available on TH-cam as well
Have a great day, my friend! ⚔
I'm in love 😍 I wish u guys all the best for this ambitious project!
Thanks!
this looks freaking amazing. my mind is just blown.
Loving what you are doing, keep up the great work!
Much appreciated!
I love that you plan to make dwarven holds of Ered Luin! Fuck me I can't wait for this to come out, I need to reclaim Moria for the dwarves!
best ideea ever, love you guys!!
Jesus Christ this mod is becoming more ambitious with every video! If this will ever be „done“ it will most certainly be one of if not the best lotr game
these plans have been what we intend even back in 2016 when I started making the maps :) there are some old articles on Moddb as well
@@MacbethofGondor thank you and the team
Amazing overview, and thouroughly deserving a like
Wow.. just wow! This will be epic! THANK YOU!
can't wait guys! looks awesome, and well thought,
good luck!
Thanks a ton!
Wow.. my dreams become true❤️ thank you for all.
I have been waiting for this MOD for the last year and cant wait for it to be here
Thats great work, i already joined your discord channel to help :D keep up good work its great to see Lotr community achieving great things without power :D (yes i mean the rings of power series:((()
I'm still so freaking hyped for this!
Many of your major factions I would accept as minor or bandit factions, to make the task less overwhelming, but I see you are aiming big here and mixing in new or less know realms to spice things up. DaC is one of my moste played game ever and I'm really looking forward to this mod getting tested and playable, making Bannerlord something I want to play again. It is sad to me that one of the games I wanted to play so bad just got boring so fast. It did not keep me in the singel player as Warband did, and the multi player is so hardcore I haven't taken the time to get good. Good luck and have fun with the project!
This + rise of mordor + bfme reforged + middle earth amazon series, its a good time to be a Tolkien fan 🔥
I came 3 Times While you was talking of whats planned in the Mod

And didnt even Finished yet
Absolutely fantastic, this will surely be one of the greatest mods all time. Just don't burn yourselves out with all the work. I wish you guys good luck with the project.
we've been going on since 2015 :P We'll handle it
Well this was way beyond my expectations, and I had high expectations
Continue your great work, master. We are all awaiting it a lot. Best regards and good luck from Russia
Damn I'm so hyped to lay my hands on this.
Definitely looking forward to this mod. Probably my number 1 for Bannerlord.
YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
This is so goddamn ambitious and I love it
Cant wait for this to come out!!!
Sharing this everywhere I can. The possible playthroughs here are endless. This mod will singlehandedly revive Bannerlord.
Haha yeah would be awesome if Bannerlord as a whole grew! There a plenty of other cool mods out there, if people ever get tired of Kingdoms of Arda
Oh my god I get excited just thinking about this mod coming to life. Seeing a dev talk about the plans makes me want to explode
This is a work I would gladly support in anyway I could. You guys should set up Patreon for supporters to join. I’m gonna love this mod and have the time of my life playing it. May Tom Bombadil aid you during the developments 🌹😍
I'd french kiss the entirety of your development team, guys.
I love you guys.
I really check on your discord every day. I'm looking forward. I take time off from work, buy a redbull and don't move from a computer for many days.
Sounds better than I could have thought!
Man this looks sick
Your doing gods work
How hyped am I for this?? Not as hyped as I am for Kingdoms of Arda XD Please give us some more updates! And best of luck in your exams :)
How about the dwarves of Nordinbad hahahahha. Seriously though great job. Can't wait to see dwarves in action! Keep it up Sir
Haha they won’t be added
Wow...just WOW! This is more ambitious than I hoped. So happy that you actually are working on the dwarves. Is there a donation page?
Sadly not the project doesn’t accept donations. Some of the devs have Patreon or alike though.
You can become a member of my channel if you want to support my work and channels though, but it’s not directly supporting the mod 😊
I and more ppl i guess are ready to pay you some donation for that good work. I know you said . You not accept donations. But for that great and very very deep and hard modding . We realy appreciate it. ❤️. Cant wait to test the mod !!
Well you can always be a member of the channel and just support me :) there's a few perks and it's honestly very cheap. Around the same price as a McDonald's cheeseburger for 1 month :)
Hype! You guys are amazing
You're amazing!
Can not wait for this!!
love to see enedhwaith and the druedain included, im excited to play this when it's out!
Amazing! Cant w8t to play this.
have big expectations, so far looking like a gem. Hope not to be disappointed.
I doubt it! ;)
Absolutely over the moon with what you and the team are doing. I believe I might have heard you're not running any sort of patreon or donation campaign (I guess a licensing thing?), but if ever you do, I'd love to contribute!
Yeah sadly we don't and probably never will
You can become a member of my channel though and support me and also get a little perks. Whenever First Release lands I'll do lots of videos about Kingdoms of Arda
Oh my Eru! I'm excited as F!
Very ambitious mod. Best of luck to all of you.
Guys you are nutz. This is a dream come true !!
Holy shit man I cant wait to play this mod!
this looks incredible
Cant wait to see all the large roosters you have planned for us.
This is insane I cannot wait for this to release!
I cant already wait for my steam hours to grow because of this mod, cant wait for the dunedain
This mod is going to be awesome I can’t wait to play it
Stunning
