cool, but what happened to no heros on horses with leadership?

A) I don't remember ever saying I didn't want that.
B) I said I'd only put the variation in as I did Gil-Galad: in such a way that if you don't want it, it doesn't have to be there.

[Elvenlord]

huh, I could have sworn....
I think because someone said about the elves calvary being stronger than the rest, but then you said they don't have leadership or something like that

Nope... Elves have plenty of leadership... It's just spread out over different units:

Galadriel: +50% attack, armour, and experience and resist fear to all nearby units. +50% experience to nearby heroes
Celeborn: +100% auto-healing and -33% reload time for nearby heroes
Haldir: +50% attack and resist fear for Mirkwood Scouts and Galadhrim Warriors
Celeglin: +50% armour for Galadhrim Warriors and Spearmen of the Havens
Celeglin: +25% vision and +15% range for nearby units
Elrond: 400% experience, +75% armour, and resist fear to nearby units
Elrond: double experience for Arwen (has to be quite close)
Thranduil: +20% vision, +15% range, +50% attack, and resist fear to nearby Mirkwood Scouts
Cirdan: +15% speed to nearby Spearmen of the Havens

Gil-Galad (optional): +50% armour, +50% attack, and resist fear

which reminds me... all of your power discriptions have right-click then left-click on enemy. and no leadership says what they do and who they do it to

That's because leadership is "passive", meaning that it's there all the time. You don't have to click anything.

[adummy]

thats not what i meant. it doesnt say what their leadership does. i know you do not have to activiate them but i would like to know what each one does

[Celeglin]

It gives a general idea for most. Off the top of my head, I think only Galadriel's leadership doesn't show what exactly it does. I've noticed just now that some of the tool tips are out of date, so I'll have to clean that up.

[Olorin]

Could you show us a pic of the mounted Galadriel?

[Feanîmriel]

Yes cool, a mounted galadriel
I'm curious about seeing her on a horse, but I don't think that'll fit
but lets see
and also be aware of the balancing in game
Galadriel mounted means a superfast undestroyable tank

[Celeglin]

and also be aware of the balancing in game

Like I said (how many times now?), I'm only putting her in as an option to modders like Gil-Galad. Therefore, I won't be worried about balancing.

Galadriel mounted means a superfast undestroyable tank

She'll be slightly different from normal Galadriel... For one she won't have her AoE on her normal attack... Light of the Valar would probably also be switched.

Anyway, here she is. I'm really not happy with it at all, but it probably looks better ingame (not that it matters)... Most things that look crappy in renders tend to look nice ingame lol.

[Lauri]

looks.... uhm.... wierd..... doesn't look elvish

[Feanîmriel]

I think that she doesn't look that bad!
She is quite as I imagined her being mounted
and sorry, i totally forgot the fact of being optional
hehe sry

[Celeglin]

looks.... uhm.... wierd..... doesn't look elvish

That's actually her "Dark Queen" breastplate from the film... But I brightened it up and gave it gold trim and highlights (rather than green).

[Lauri]

oh.... well, never noticed that she got any armor at all only noticed the green

[Celeglin]

any chance that we'll be able to right click hero abilities to make them be autocasted? Really hope so

If the game recognises certain enums and set the autocast thing on its own, then yes. If I have to do anything extra to make it work, then no .

[Elvenlord]

I think I got auto-ability to work, not sure though

[Feanîmriel]

@ elvenlord:
how did you get the auto-ability work?

[Pixel]

I think that mounted galadriel looks great exept im not to sure on her spear I think a sword would be much better. I just cant imagen her carrying along a big spear
