You probably alread know that we plan to have four super-heroes in the game, one for each faction.

Gondor: Gandalf
Mordor: The Witch-King
Isengard: Saruman
Rohan: Elrond

(power from top to bottom; Gandy is best, Elrond worst)

Since I'm really into lua/xml scripting now, we've decided to give each super-hero a special power that auto-triggers when he is near another super hero. But you cannot trigger the power yourself, it's thought to create a special atmosphere when two of the best units meet on the field.
So that's where we need your ideas and comments. So far we have:

Gandalf: weapon / blademaster mode including an effect with a lot of light
The Witch-King: "This is my hour"-mode, stat boost with a flaming sword effect, like blademaster
Saruman: maybe something like the Balrog's "Ignite", he is covered with fire and does extra damage to everyone that comes too close
Elrond: some sort of elven spell?


Ideas/comments/critics appreciated

Und da war dann noch der achte.

Und der achte war's, der sie bewachte.

Gandalf should get the shield bubble and glow with a slight fieryness (the secret fire).
Sarumans should involve lightning maybe?

Playing games? Ah, you'll never be a good modder if you get involved in actually playing them!

The shield bubble is already used, and I don't want to manipulate it, I like it the way it is. But the secret fire idea could be turned into a power somehow...
And I like the idea of lightning for Saruman... I'll see what I can think of.

Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't the Witch-King be more powerful than Gandalf? I mean, in their thirty-second confrontation, The WK does end up dominating Gandalf...but, just my 2 cents.

Plus, all the twelve-year old fans out there piss me off by refusing to adknowledge the fact that Legolas and Gandalf aren't god.

No, the Witch-King should certainly not be more powerful then Gandalf. In the movies he appeared to be, but that was very falsely portraited. Gandalf was alot stronger then the Witch-King.

For Saruman... I recall a passage that informs us that the pits of isengard glowed "blue, or red, or venomous green..." perhaps a sickly green or blue energy should encircle him, maybe like the Morgul-Light. Would look very cool.

I had something else in mind, but since I haven't decided yet, I'll think of it. Thanks for the suggestion :)

Sarumans should involve lightning maybe?


How about make lightning strike his staff, like in Lightning Sword, but give him a damage bonus, and keep the lightning sparking from his staff, and, at the beginning, when the lightning hits the staff, have more bolts striki all around and damage enemies? It could clear out weaker enemies, and leave just strong ones. And if I understand it right, this would only happen when Saruman's near another super hero. If so, then it shouldn't be overpowered (I thought it might be when I typed it.)
Do not come between a Nazgul and his prey.
