The 1.9+ shields are realistic--they block the attack. As for the compatibility with lotr shields, just give each faction a faction-specific shield, and replace the current achievement shields with capes. The OP regen? Guess you'd have to coremod it out. The cooldown? I believe the MC swords are almost the same time-wise as the LotR swords, and the MC axes are more like the warhammer speed. Also, I actually prefer the MC cooldown system, because it is more realistic (you don't have to have your sword fully raised before you strike again, but you'll deal less damage).

Again, not that all this really matters. We're probably staying in 1.7.10 until the mod dies.
