put shields in the rohirim and put them the shield improve just like bfme1

[Fingulfin]

Horse shields are planned for release three

As for the other Ideas, I will take them into serious consideration. After I get #2 out, I will start making some more major improvements to the existing factions. Release 2 is mostly a bug fix. And yes, this is the right forum

Hopefully within the next 2 weeks, but I make no promises. I am addressing the bugs one by one, the hardest part will be configuring all of the fortress maps to be compatible with the Rohan faction (the Worldbuilder lags up my computer).

[D_bershevits]

Yes, world builder is a thing that lags computer

Maybe you can copy the Men of the west code and use it for rohan(for fortress maps)

[Fingulfin]

Its not code, its scripts in conjunction with map.ini. Its not too hard, I just have to dedicate an hour per 2 maps to doing it.

Well, I don't do "Mini-Factions". Everyone else is doing them, I'm trying to stay at least a little bit unique. In release 5, I will be releasing the Arnor and Harad factions. More info on those two later. Because I am releasing Arnor, Elendil and Isildur won't be joining Gondor any time soon. Imrahil might make a scene in the mod, because I took all of Gondor's Horse Buffing Heroes away (aka Theoden and Eomer). Helm Hammerhand will not be making an entrance, he wasn't part of either Angmar's rise or the War of the Ring. Instead of Arnor, I might just throw in a "Last Alliance" faction, I'm still thinking about it. In release three I'll give the Dwarves and Elves some much needed attention, along with wall towers/seigetypething for elves and Isen. Durin is a bit out of place, so don't expect to see him, but Balin will probably get in. Remember, I can't model units so all my new things are donated. I can however model buildings, so expect to see some new versions of those in the near future. I will try to get a basic concept for the Haradrim Fortress released soon (need to finish release 2 and three before worrying about release five ).

Dang this is a long post!

EDIT: Ok, here is the reply to the guests post (sorry for not replying earlier!): Guardians of Westfold: Great Idea! I'll definately be adding in some elite archers soon Rohan seige works: Yes this is coming. I will remove the ents and stick in a rohan battering ram and some version of ranged seige. Problem is sticking to Tolkien lore, where the Rohirrim don't seem to have any real type of seige weapons... Guardians of the Citadel: I will just buff up the Dol-Amroth knights if there is a balance issue Royal Guards: Sorry, I would have done this if not for complications of mounting hordes. It turns out that hordes simply cannot use the mount code. Sorry, but is an engine limitation :( Hourns: Possibly, but I have heard of complications with ent hordes. I'll look into it. Dwarven Cavalry: Looking into it. All your ideas for Isen are superb, I'll see which ones I can implement.

[sporting1986]

i heard a rumor that the rohirrim could have some horns,is that true or is just a rumor??if it is true maybe you could put it in your new version

[sporting1986]

oh by the way when do your new version comes out???ou is planned to come out??

[D_bershevits]

Well this can be used as a summon power or units for arnor.

The fleet brought a great army led by Earnur, the son of King Earnil II of Gondor, as well as cavalry that included horsemen from Rhovanion. They joined forces with the remaining Dunedain of the North and the Elves of Lindon led by Cirdan to form the Host of the West. Some archers from the Shire accompanied them.
