THIS TOPIC IS FOR DISCUSSION OF THIS LIST ONLY. IT IS NOT FOR RANDOM SPAM, IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS FOR NEW UNITS.

[Herunor]

i still can't see any harad-minifacs. are you undecided about them or do you just hide them?

[Bard]

The mini-factions of Harad will show when their units are ready to be added to the list. The staff is currently unprepared to release any confirmation on them.

However I can announce that the Harad mini-factions (that already have their icons on the new updated site) are:

The Corsairs of Umbar
The Variags of Khand
The Tribes of Far Harad

[MorgoththeMight]

What happened to the man-at-arms of Dol Amroth? On the site, Dol Amroth is only Imrahil and the knights...

[Nertea]

They can still be added later if we decide to actually make them recruitable.

[m@tt]

So are they a summonable horde atm?

[Durin]

So are they a summonable horde atm?

... possibly together with the Morthond Vale Bowmen and the Lossarnach Axemen using the "Muster of the Fiefdoms"-Power?

[Núkumnëhtar]

Aye!

[Knights_of_Dol_Amroth]

I though that the Kngihts of Dol Amroth could switch between horse and foot. That's what I interpreted from the renders.

thats what i had understood too from way back when

[MorgoththeMight]

btw.. what happened to the Marsh-wraiths? they seem to be gone too!

those arent regular units so it could be a reason why the renders arent there

Well if you look at the current renders, that idea has sadly been dropped in favour of a more doable lance/sword toggle. The other while slightly doable, just didn't work very well and was full of bugs (trampling while on foot and such)

[Knights_of_Dol_Amroth]

That is probably for the best. Having a regular infantry that can switch between Knight and infantry would make them too powerful. Plus the strategic way to use the KoDA is with the lances and swords. For instance, the lances would best be used against trolls, hitting other cavalry, and charging, while swords while in the middle of a melee fight with someone like orcs.

[Herunor]

well, you can avid those trampling damage on foot. the only thing i can't get rid off is the speed. doesn't matter what i do, they always have the same speed. but thats not the place...

another question: why is celeborn able to mount a horse? i never heard about lothlorien cavalry

[Celeglin]

another question: why is celeborn able to mount a horse? i never heard about lothlorien cavalry

Check "The Steward and the King" as well as "Many Partings" in Return of the King, and you'll see that Celeborn indeed knows one end of a horse from another (as do Erestor, Galadriel, Elrond, and Arwen). He doesn't need a coterie of cavalry to ride.

ok, i'll do that
