I have am making a Battle for Middle Earth Campaign that will:
-have a good and evil campaign
-Lots of custom Models
-Huge castle sieges for Helms Deep and Minas Tirith
-Battles not shown in the movie
-There will be a The War of the Ring part that will take place in the northern parts of Middle Earth. This part of the Campaign will be based of another game

The War of the Ring will be battling in the Shire, Bree, Rivendell, Grey Havens, Lothlorien, Sauron's fortress of Dol Guldur, Mirkwood Forest, the Dwarven fortress of Erebor(Lonely Mountain), Dale, Laketown(Esgaroth), the Iron Mountains, Fornost, Redhorn Pass, and Minas Morgul.

Man this sounds very, very cool!
I hope you want a forum in my hosted forums section. I will later improve it so people can upload their own pages for the project.

Custom models require a lot of work. I would suggest making the whole map first and then use a few models for some units.
I think that it's annoying in maps like DBZ Tribute that it's size is like 50mb.

However your idea is very, very cool!

Very, very cool screen shots. looks like a lot of fun. Customs are always nice, but like Ralle said, they may start to lag up he game. My siggestion is, take some of the most common units, like the riders of rohan, and then some of the most special and important units, like Theodan, Legolas, Aragorn, and the 4 hobits, and give them models, and for the rest, just try and find the most exotic models you can within W-E.
