MoriaMod - Vers. 0.2 demo - Jul - 2002 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MoriaMod is a project started at the end of the year 2000 by a group of 
Severance fans. From there we have gone on to work on it with a great
deal of dedication and some good luck. 

This version is offered as a demo version of the first map that will allow us 
to evaluate the reaction of the  Blade community. From that we hope to obtain useful 
suggestions for the definitive version of the Mod.

To get additional information about the Mod and it's development status

Instalation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MoriaMod is a BODLoader 0.5a compatible Mod, but until it is available in 
the usual places (Blade Mods or BODPlanet) you must use the MMSetup.exe 
installer program.

This mod comes with two extra Mods:  Talk System and allies. These mods will be
installed with MoriaMod but it's possible that in the repositories of BODLoader
appear updated versions.

If you have previous versions of this map or any of their components, please 
uninstall them before to proceed to the installation of this release.

Storyline
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At MoriaMod we would like the story to become a key factor in its design. We 
believe that the narrative can be interesting in equal measure both to the 
followers of Tolkien and to the habitual Blade fan. Anyway, Blade is not a role playing game
so with this Mod we have tried to give the story a little more depth.  


You can find the opening story of MoriaMod in the file Storyline.pdf.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Characters
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At MoriaMod you can choose between two characters : Damathar and Melian.  At the 
moment they are a knight and an amazon, but we would like to develop custom 
models for the final version.  

The two characters have different, although parallel stories. The maps will be 
the same, but the playing styles will be different. In this first map not many 
differences exist in the gameplay between one or other character. You can 
make your choice depending on your playing style.

Maps
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With this version we only include the first level of the Mod: 'The Last Bridge.'
It is important to read  the file M1_Readme.txt because it  contains information
on the defined keys and other options.

        It's very difficult to give credit when a project is so long and
        so many  people have participated in it in one way or another.
        But we will attempt it.
