The Lord of the rings mod is a mod for minecraft based on the lord of the rings book by J.R.R. Tolkien. It has many new mobs such as orcs,trolls and many more you can choose to be good or bad by killing mobs for example if you kill a Orc you will get one ring once you get 100 rings you become good and you can command good soldiers which will attack orcs and stuff. But if you kill a soldier or hobbit you will get -one ring and when you get -100 rings you become evil however once you are evil you can always turn to good and visa versa. To make a portal to middle-earth you will need a gold ring and a lava source block. To make a gold ring you will need 8 gold ingots and arrange them everywhere except in the middle of the crafting. Then throw the gold ring into the source block of lava using the drop button ( in my case Q)there will be an explosion and a gigantic golden ring will float down from the sky stand in it and you will be on your way to middle-earth!!! There are also structures in the dimension such as Orc villages and towers. Good luck in middle-earth!!!
