Are the Mirkwood Scouts going to have a toggleable Skirmish formation? By the way, your mod is awesome.

It will not be exactly like the normal Skirmish formation (it'll be a little more interesting, if I can get it to work). As a further note, Knights and Riders will have toggle wedge formation and Spearmen will get a toggle shield wall. Thanks for the question/comment!

Also, i was just wandering, maybe you could make Cirdan selectable (so you can make him target the desired enemy) and make him have a couple of powers but still make him stay within the sight range of the outpost/camp/castle. i was thinking for the powers: maybe something to do with Narya, the Elven ring of fire, cause in the books it is said that he kept the ring for Gandalf while sauron was still about. I'm just making a suggestion.

I don't think coding that would be possible. If it was, I would so do it ^_^ .

Where on earth did you see that? He kept the ring for Gil-Galad and later gave it to Gandalf when he arrived from across the sea. I don't remember him ever taking it back.

Ok he probably did keep it for Gil-Galad (my bad), but i think after Gandalf arrived Narya was supposed to go to him but because Sauron was still around Cirdan kept it until the Dark Lord was destroyed. i think that's how it goes.

Just one last thing, are you able to make the hobbits mountable, eg. Pippin can mount Gandalf when he's on Shadowfax, or Merry mounting Eowyn when she's mounted, and so on and so forth. It would just make the game a bit more realistic, like the Charge of the Rohirrim in the siege of Minas Tirith Merry was mounted with Eowyn (a.k.a Dernhelm).

And if you do, can you make it so that the hobbits aren't invincible when also mounted like they do on other mods? :S

I don't think I'm going to bother. Trying to keep non-essential non-elven stuff to a low.

okay, this is a bit offtopic for the elves but i'm a gondor player and i think that the gondor soldier formation should be for the gondor archer battalion as well. would you be able to squeeze that in as well?

Not sure I'm following you. If you mean giving the Gondor Archers a block formation, then no. Sticking archers close together doesn't realistically make them more defensive. Furthermore, Gondor's Archers have been so boosted by patch 1.03, they really don't need the extra defense.
