Oh, sure, erase my post that I'm pretty sure had nothing to do with Sauron adummy.
Anyways, I went with c, and though maybe the scouts(DON'T KILL ME!) could be the basic, but basics with a toggle would probably be OP.......

So Celeglin, with all this new work that's popping up in this thread (and your ideas) will you make a new website for TLT? 'Cause these forums are far too crowded with all your past work (and other things I won't bother to mention), and I can't really see anything being added to the TEA site.

[Taralom]

all right,
this is just a stupid suggestion for the elite isengard unit:

the Crebain of Dunland....

and i know it won't come in the mod but i just had to say it
one other one:

Wild men of Dunland

[zimoo]

I believe Cel has already said he doesn't want to add the Dunlanders as the elite unit.

[Celeglin]

but when it is an upgrade it is cool.
will you put that concept in other units too?
or only the guardians?

Amroth's Knights also have a shield upgrade.

About Isengard, are you saying that the Crossbows will be the Elite Elite unit, or just an elite archer? Because in my opinion it doesn't make sense to have them as the Elite unit, just because it would ruin the theme that you've been building up with the Eilte units of the other factions.

Well... Gondor has already broken said theme, having two almost Elite Elite units.

For the Elite unit, maybe something that has both melee and ranged, or just melee (keeping with the aforementioned theme), and I'm not refering to the Uruk Scouts again. Maybe just call them something simple, e.g. 'Elite Uruk Warriors', and make them part of the Helm's Deep army. That's my opinion on the matter.

You know, why not? It isn't crazy original, but like I was getting any better ideas anyway. And maybe there is some originality in the idea anyway: there are no other weapon-toggle evil units. It's settled.

Way ahead of you. I have most of the hero pages done and am moving on to the unit pages now.

don't know why, but I'm seeing some nighty'blueish site

as for Isengards elite units.... Isengard could do with a toggle unit, or just some heavy melee units... like the ones with those cool helmets

lol.....uruk supper
it's uruk sapper
But probably not, isen already has mines, and instant ones would be OP

aah yes,

sapper.... and i know supper is in front of diner...
but i didn't know the name of the unit.
blame the dutchman
i haven't played it for over a year i believe...
but if you can get them in i guess a name could be uruk elite's.
(how inspiring )

They'll both use the same upgrade (it'll probably simply be called "Shields" rather than "Horse Shields". Current concept for Greenwood Spears also includes a shield, so that'll make a third unit.

don't know why, but I'm seeing some nighty'blueish site

Current colour scheme is black and brown/tan (black because it's easier to work with renders on black, and there's plenty of brown art from the current site that can be used). Not set in stone, of course.

as for Isengards elite units.... Isengard could do with a toggle unit, or just some heavy melee units... like the ones with those cool helmets

edit:

That's the look I was going for. I'll still have to decide whether I want them to be toggle or sword + shield...

hope that this means that you are back Cel T3A miss you a lot

I've had a (busy) week off and have been at home. I'll be going back to school tommorrow though, so don't expect me around for a while again.

[Taralom]

too bad cel,

i hope it won't take too long.
btw, are you still working on your mod while you can't get on the forum?

i think you do...
but i can't be certain

We'll miss you Cel


I was seeing the blue too lauri, but guess not

Well, with isen's elite unit, they only have one ranged unit, while every other faction has some form of 2 archers. And they already have elite infantry, the berserker........

Personally I reckon it would look better if they had a sword and shield. Though Elvenlord is right, Isengard has only one type of ranged unit.

Edited by Olorin, 05 April 2007 - 01:03 AM.

[Elvenlord]

Yeah, it would fit isen better and would look better, but like we both said, only one ranged
Or make two units
But that would require alot of work for the evil factions, something Cel is unwilling to do
