i have released the next update at my forums, but ill post them all here anyway



im going to post an update every other day! rather then saving aload of stuff up and posting it every other week

so here is some very rough statistics of how far though the mod is.

coding = 30 %
skinning = 30 %
mapping = 50 %
Overall = 40%

Evil Men = 70%
Mordor = 70%
Isengard = 80%
Gondor = 80 %
Rohan = 50%
Eriador = 30%

and here are 4 new screen shots showing most of the haradrim stuff

here are the haradrim buildings, you shoudl reconise the mumakil pen, the 2 buildings with spears and bows leanign agasint the walls are the haradrim barracks, and then there are 2 haradrim towers guarding it.
Evil men wotn have walls, bu they have the advantage that their towers are stealthed!


a haradrim army, spears on the flanks, half trolls of the south at the front, haradrim bowmen behind the half trolls, 2 mumakil at the back, with the haradrim leader riding the mumakil in the center.


basicly the same, only with the haradrim leader on foot, with the red serpent guard whuch are a royal guard type unit.


a close up of the haradrim leader and his guard. I am going to make alot better skin for for him though.

THe next update is in 2 days time
