Yes, adding the glow to Gandalf is one thing I've wanted to add, thought it might not make it to 1.06.

But that was one of my favorite posts of all time!
Anyway, rob can clean this up if he wants to...though I think he's enjoying it almost as much as I am, just as a guess
Blah! Rob beat me to posting
Edit2: I'm off to bed...you guys are safe for tonight

Also, some of their their names are a bit... ech. I can't imagine a deadly shadow-wraith called Ren, and you should drop the second names, and Ji Indúr Dawndeath should just be called Indúr. And Khamul should have a mask. Just saying. Hey, put that gun away, it was constructive criticism. Constructive.
(oh, and Dread Visage should be renamed to Black Breath, as according to the b-*gets shot*)

To my knowledge, yes it's fixed. And if you don't like the names ignore them; I doubt that they're going to be changed, as others have been pretty vehement in keeping them as-is.

Maybe Men of the East should be able to recruit up to two Fellbeasts on their own? Rhun and Harad are the places from which such monsters come from. That way, it would be more worth while to purchase a Fellbeast upgrade from the fortress.
Some of the Nazgul portraits are a bit silly, too. They don't look... spirity... enough. Maybe they could be improved to look slightly blurred, or more shadowy?
(Ren the Unclean sounds more like a name for a wandering hobo than a dark, malevolent force that is the enslaved spirit of an ancient king, his soul trapped forever by the power of the Ring. Sorry guys, I had to make my point here. It just has no Tolkein-ish-ness at all.)

No, Nazgul 4 has died!
Nazgul 7 has returned to aid us!
Nazgul 3's fellbeast is ready!

Anyways, giving them names, in my opinion, seems to be a reminder of their past, what they lost with the desire for the ring's power. Names don't always give character or humanity to an object or, well, at least in the case, a phantom.

So just drop the titles and second names, and maybe some of the descriptions. They're Nazgul. Nazgul are Nazgul.
Here's a more moderate version of the Nine:
Name: The Witch-King of Angmar
Recruit Description: Recruit the leader of the Ring-Wraiths and once Lord of Angmar.
Name: Khamul
Recruit Description: Recruit the infamous Black Easterling and second in command to the Witch-King.
Name: Morgomir
Recruit Description: Recruit the Black Numenorean and Captain of Angmar who fell under the shadow of the Ring.
Name: Kazrael (instead of Ren the Unclean)
Recruit Description: Recruit the former lord of men who fell to the will of the Ring.
Name: Indúrath (instead of Ji Indúr Dawndeath)
Recruit Description: Recruit the once great captain who was bound by the sorcery of the Ring.
Name: Voniel (instead of Hoármurath of Dir)
Recruit Description: Recruit the sorcerer-lord who fell under the influence of the Ring.
Name: Rasrath (instead of the horseman guy)
Recruit Description: Recruit the once valiant Horse-Lord who was twisted by the magic of the Ring.
Name: Melkomir (instead of Akhorakil)
Recruit Description: Recruit the once noble king of the north who was corrupted by the power of the Ring.
Name: Selkoth (instead of the last guy, can't remember his name)
Recruit Description: Recruit the once heroic champion of the south who fell under the influence of the Ring.
Well, there you have it all laid out on a plate. These names (except for the obvious ones) are all original, and sound a damn sight better than the last, I think. What do you think? You won't even need to adapt their powers too much, although the Witch King should get the same Horse-Fellbeast system as the others, with his mask added to the model to distinguish him from the other Black Riders.
