It would also be cool to have the modders do various starting times...like the First Age..or even before that Age of the Trees. (really wants to see Gondolin rendered in that beautiful CK3 map :D )
Looks awesome but I don't know why they didn't add in areas like mirkwood and Arnor ext. first. As this is where the movies and books are focused around
Seems a weird update. No stories take place in those lands, so it's an odd choice to add. I'm disappointed truth be told. I don't really care about southern rules. #waiting for elves
i had other ideas for the knocking part, but just no idea how to do what i wanted to haha! and thanks! just going to slowly try new things overtime while editing!
i heard a while back that a total war mod was being made, but haven't heard anything since? so honestly no idea if thats something being made, but hopefully one day
@@SnapStrategyThey were on a winter break the last I had looked. The development of the CK3 mod continues afaik. Might be worth to recheck their server. Their builds are available for everyone to download as well iirc.
honestly havent kept up with the development of that mod, so no idea when its planned! last i heard a lot of bigger mods were waiting until after the royal court
Maybe don't have additional mods installed when doing a showcase, it's a bit unfair to cause additional bugs that's not the showcase mod's fault. Good video regardless.
I love love love this mod. Just sucks that it takes so long to update. It's been almost a year since we got the last update. Starting to feel dead at this point. Been playing princes of darkness mod to hold me over.
While I appreciate the hard work, the setting just doesn't lend itself to CK3 in my opinion. I am looking forward to the Bannerlord LoTR mod but GoT is a much better fit for CK3.
Umbar and Khand are Canon,and there was talk about old Numenorean colonies even to the south of Umbar. Some could even be Black Numenoreans. So maybe they are trying to fit those "blank" statements with some lore of their own
I always wondered why the ck3 is so ugly, now that I saw some Videos, I realized that my PC is just crappy and I've been playing on the lowest settings. Might also explain, why my game is so slow.
Sad that they are putting so much effort in making a Lord of the Rings mod for CK3, which imho doesn't makes sense at all since the lore of the LOTR is just total war and no diplomacy, cunning or dinasties games at all, which is the strong point of ck3. They would very much better use their skills in making an ASOIAF mod...
But....without it, I would not have experienced the hilarity that was Sauron giving up his throne to a Nazgul. Or the later that same game, finding out someone was murdering Aragon's family. Only after Arwen was killed did I find out that it was their son and heir. While that kidna stuff is a bit annoying, I can't deny it was memorable.
Honestly I'm a little disappointed. The map size is good but I would have liked mirkwood, erebor and dale and maybe even recreate the kingdom of angmar
Maybe because they need artists to create the new assets for new factions/races but the don't have them.. so doing non-canon faction is all they could do, stupid guy...

I just wanna play as the dwarves and I will wait unpatiently.
yeah i get you waiting here as well
I cant wait to play as the dwarves either tbf! will be insane
*cries in khuzdul*
Can you play as the Hobbits? Like make the Empire of the Shire and conquer Mordor as Emperor Bilbo?
@@thebasileus4793 not yet. Maybe in a few years.
Sauron probably looks like that because of another mod. If you are playing with other mods, make sure Realms is last on the list, so it has priority.
Yeah im sure it was Full screen Barbershop, i did do a little text pop up on screen but just noticed it was on screen for less than a second lol
I don't think it's fullscreen barbershop. I had it on and didn't have any issues. Realms was last on my list so it might have had priority
@@donpollo3154 it's the load order of Fullscreen Barbershop. If you load it after Realms you'll get glitches like the Sauron one here.
Excited to see how they’ll implement the new update from paradox, I’m sure it’ll be great!
they said v2.3 will be patching stuff to work with royal court! but i cant wait to see if they make some custom throne rooms!
It would also be cool to have the modders do various starting times...like the First Age..or even before that Age of the Trees. (really wants to see Gondolin rendered in that beautiful CK3 map :D )
The devs have already said that they wouldn't be able to do it because the world change is too drastic between the first and second ages. But I agree.
the passion they put into all this mods, is admirable!
Looks awesome but I don't know why they didn't add in areas like mirkwood and Arnor ext. first. As this is where the movies and books are focused around
The Realms team needs artists, that's one of the reasons.
@@LegomanTheMatt Explaine?

@@christoperwallace6197 elves are next on their roadmap
NOOO WAAY !!! That's so crazy !!! Thanks for the video I didn't notice they released an update. Definitely need to cover this up !!
Honestly its insane what they're doing, whoever is making this map is so talented!
The golden King, Lord of golden rain
i love this mod for real. I Hope i can play the Elves in this mod haha
Thanks for the summary of the update. Looks really good. Also that door vfx. Looked very clean apart from 1 frame but that's minor issues
i had other ideas for the knocking part, but just no idea how to do what i wanted to haha! and thanks! just going to slowly try new things overtime while editing!
I wish there was CKIII Geheimnisnacht. Especially with the court dlc...

@@SnapStrategy Do you know if Winter King is getting done or a Witcher mod?
@@SnapStrategyThey were on a winter break the last I had looked. The development of the CK3 mod continues afaik. Might be worth to recheck their server. Their builds are available for everyone to download as well iirc.
@@theblackswordsman9951 There is a Witcher mod, yes. But it is still in early development iirc.
Cool shit. Gona try this. Thanks for info. Good gid. Will be hangin around here
2:02 that desert puts vanilla CK3 to shame. I never thought too much about it until now but Paradox need to pull their finger out
This mod plus Crusader Blade and the LOTR mods for Mount and Blade 2 Bannerlord are giving me the game of my dreams holy fuck
you should check out divide and conquer submod for medieval total war 2.
Are there any mods specifically to do with Poland?
Love your content bro! Keep up the great work!
Thankyou man!
This and Rise of Mordor is the icing on the cake!
4:09 "Huge tracts of land!"
Hi, how can we get the ring as sauron ? Because he can't fight without the ring
Will AGOT ever be released?
honestly havent kept up with the development of that mod, so no idea when its planned! last i heard a lot of bigger mods were waiting until after the royal court
@@SnapStrategy makes sense really, Royal courts will change absolutely everything in this game
Yeah i fell sorry for the modders, be cool if paradox gave them early access to dlcs to work on patches in advance! as its going to break a lot
@@SnapStrategy yeah, it's gonna be vanilla for a while until the modders catch up
It will be faster than Wind of Winter, for sure
Where do you download the mods from ?
Great video !!
Thankyou! :)
Best mods to run along with it yah think snap?
What happened to Sauron clothes ?
Maybe don't have additional mods installed when doing a showcase, it's a bit unfair to cause additional bugs that's not the showcase mod's fault. Good video regardless.
Now throw some Banner Lord battles on it :D
Made house Lannister on a Island sworn to Gondor changed the war to favor Gondor, was the steward of Gondor, but I wasn’t honorable at all lol
Do elves die of old age?
This is awesome!
Can you get elves in this mod?
I love love love this mod. Just sucks that it takes so long to update. It's been almost a year since we got the last update. Starting to feel dead at this point. Been playing princes of darkness mod to hold me over.
They’ve started doing public streams of the new update, so hopefully it won’t be too long
hi, is this Mod on the steam store?
steam workshop

I had no idea that Tolkien had detailed so many lands outside of Northwest Middle Earth.
He did not. This is like the Extended Star Wars Universe. Not canon. Will never be.
@@Wulfrygg The Star Wars extended universe was canon (of various degrees of importance) until the disney buyout
@@TheRevan1337 Yes excactly.
Umbar and Khand are Canon,and there was talk about old Numenorean colonies even to the south of Umbar. Some could even be Black Numenoreans. So maybe they are trying to fit those "blank" statements with some lore of their own
He partially described
Do I love the way you express yourself and your accent? Yes I do.
Can I get a link to the mod?
here you go! - steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2291024373
i wish they wuld expand north
Too bad i have to set all the settings to the lowest because i play in a laptop
Yeah it might be tough to run! although there isn't a ton of different rulers/counties right now, so hopefully isn't too laggy
Waiting for v5 to form a hobbit empire
Honestly im so excited for that, however long it takes I'm sure it will be incredible!
This. The world will tremble before the unstoppable military might and ruthless tyranny of the Sackville Baggins dynasty.
Why the fuck wouldn't they expand to the north/west to include the elves first.
nice
Every time I try to play the game Crashes
why are saurons nippels exposed XD
Honestly I want to know if I can play as a she elf😂
I always wondered why the ck3 is so ugly, now that I saw some Videos, I realized that my PC is just crappy and I've been playing on the lowest settings. Might also explain, why my game is so slow.

dude. it's free. they aren't getting paid.
You can still be disappointed in free things
@@christoperwallace6197 yes, people can always choose to be an ass, but maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't choose that option.
@@brocksamson3282 also they are adults who game. They have read worse comments then someone being disappointed.
@@brocksamson3282 maybe, just maybe, it is you being the ass?
:D
They added the sandeating shitskins beföre dwarfs and elves? Whats wröng with them?! Guess I'll wait anöther year beföre I play this möd then.

ck3 is still inferior to ck2
