About this Mod
Middle‑Earth Additions: War Mod
📖 Overview
Middle‑Earth Additions: War Mod is a lightweight, commander‑focused addon for the Middle‑Earth mod. Hire soldiers, form squads with Army IDs, and launch synchronized invasions on demand. Your warband obeys Follow/Stay orders, defends you in a pinch, and can be rallied from distant, even unloaded lands.
✨ Features
🛡️ Hire & Command
- Recruit faction‑aligned units with an intuitive Hiring screen
- Toggle orders: Follow to escort/assist, or Stay to hold position like a sitting wolf
- Units defend their commander, assist your current target, and safely teleport when left behind
⚔️ Armies & Invasions
- Assign an Army ID (e.g.,
Rangers,Shieldwall) to organize your forces - Press I to open the War screen and hit Invade to summon:
- All units in the entered Army ID, or
- All your non‑army units if left blank
- Invasions honor a short cooldown and only summon units you own (never other players’)
- Persistent tracking recalls units from unloaded chunks or far‑off regions
🎮 How to Use
- Open the Unit screen on a hired unit to view stats, issue Follow/Stay, and edit Army ID
- Press I in‑game to open the War screen; enter an Army ID (optional) and click Invade
