The Elven Alliance: Community Edition is a mod for The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth, created by T3A Community.
Back in 2006, Celeglin released the second beta version of The Elven Alliance (TEA). While the mod was both popular and successful (e.g., made the top 100 mod of the year list in 2006), there was still a lot of unfinished work that needed to be completed. Unfortunately, Celeglin became busy with other things, and he never had the opportunity to continue work on his mod. As such, many fans were disappointed that the mod was never fully completed. After much discussion, the T3A staff and community decided that it was their responsibility to finish TEA and address any balance and bug issues contained in beta 0.9. Due to being unable to contact Celeglin and perhaps straying from his original intentions, the mod was given a new subtitle as to not confuse who the author was of the modified version. The new project became known as The Elven Alliance:Community Edition (TEA:CE).
The project has evolved over the years, but the original purpose and design has remained the same. Below is some information about what the mod project hopes to accomplish when finished.
The intentions and goals in this edition:
- Add the new Gondor skins made by Celeglin
- Fix all bugs and glitches in the mod
- Balance the factions (with particular attention to the Elves) to make multiplayer more fair and enjoyable
- Address the issues laid out it the TEA beta 2 readme file
- Add any missing 2-d art to the mod
- Develop the Elven AI and add it to all skirmish maps
- Increase the difficulty and challenge of the hard AI
- Create audio voices for the Elven units/heroes that have no voice files
- Include new skirmish maps for the mod
- Modify the campaign missions by making them more challenging and to incorporate the new features in TEA:CE
The mod has it’s own installer.
