First off this mod is looking great Celegrin (Im also a fan of the RA mod as well

)

Anyways I was thinking about the Rohan royal guards, and how you said you would make them a summon power...

...well Im not sure if it is possible, but maybe you could make them like mounted berserker (they come out as single units). This would make it so they wouldn't be too powerful because they are a stronger type of Rohirrim (which are already the best cavalry), yet also add a new, different type of unit.

I'd like to see the Royal Guards buildable, so Im just thrown this idea out there :unsure:

no offense dude but that would be just plain dumb!
Do you know how being a horseman, and charging in solo trampling only two or three units would be like!

I mean, come on, take a look at the heros for crying out loud (not gonna trample alot of units before pulling to a dead stop then melee, which is not something a cavalry unit is not meant for OR even good at).
What i'll say is dump the idea and let it remain a summom (if you want it buildable? fine! mod the game ya self)
Although i was wondering if making the royal guard an unmountable unit would be cool....

(dunno if you can do it or not but i'll be cool as Hama himself will fight on foot)

As was said above, the single unit is rather unrealistic. Thanks though trying to help, it's always welcome

. But really, don't worry about the Royal Guards not being buildable: this is on my to-do list for mod version after the initial release.

Oh yes, it certainly would be cool! Unfortunately, coding battalions to mount/dismount is a very fiddly thing to code (as they can't use the code the Heroes use to do it). It is possible to get it to work, but it's definately not perfect. On top of this, I really don't have the time right now to fiddle around with it. Sorry

I reckon make the Royal Guards buildable from a stables or something, 'cause since Rohan is mainly cavalry they should have more cavalry than any other faction. And anyway, Rohan didn't have many types of units to begin with.
