That mod seem to have a lot of usable stuff... so I'd love to, yes! But it's not my call though, but Stealthsnakes since it's his mod... (I wish it was mine) hehe

[m@tt]

Well all you have to do is email/pm him as the WIP is up for grabs for the most suitable bidder. Some stuff could go very well with this mod, it just depends if you would want to add factions or not as that would lead to a lot of balancing I would imagine.

It's good to know that you guys got together to pick up where Stelthsnake left off! I know from experience that it's not exactly easy to agree on something, especially if the team is big. Good luck! I'm look ing forward to what you're gonna come up with!

Back to topic, anyone?

[clonecommand]

Okay...

I don't have an old PC. I have most of the graphics on ultra-high. It's just that it creates enough lag that it is annyoing. I like the picture more anyways.

*heads over to comments section*

[Nazgûl]

Yeah, I'm glad too see that too Besides I have no interest in taking over BoG. I'm only interested in asking for some minor things such as the Muhad Mumak rider and perhaps some skins and models. Not at all any big quantities of anything really. I'll ask Stealth and we'll see

And enough about the movie/pic thing now lol
It stays and anyone having a hard time with the movie should just use Lauri's solution

[Uruk King]

What I would like to see in the Mod is more unit skin variatoin, you know like different orc skins, basically to add more variety and eye-candy.

I was also thinking that Gothmog could have a power called "Summon the Retinue". it's a level ten power which summons three batallions of warg riders to his aid. Sounds a bit crazy but of course its just a suggestion

[Nazgûl]

1) Check the ToDo list... it's on the way! At least for the Orcs

2) Not at all crazy, I like it... I think we could do that

[Uruk King]

Heres another question, its probably a bit much to ask for (which it probably is). But is it possible to remove the current palantir images for the MOTW, Mordor, and Isengard units and replace them with the original palantir images from the first game, and find some pics from the movies for some of the other units like the Elves and Goblins.

[m@tt]

Well there is a tutorial by Culladan making the new styley p.pics so that may not be neccesary.

[Uruk King]

Styley?

Don't remember the first game that much... Were they so much better?

[Uruk King]

Lets just put it this way, the palantir images for the Isengard, MOTW and Mordor units have black'n white illustrations from the movies and the other units a have colourful drawings of their characters. In other words use the palantir pics from the first game for factions mentioned above, and find some pics from the movie for some of the other elven and goblin units. Anyway I was also wondering about an elite swordsman unit for Mordor becouse the corsairs are really just support units.

[Sûlherokhh]

That is a matter of taste of course, but i liked the BfME1 images better then the sepia toned new ones for BfME2. Changing them back is easy, but a lot of work.

[Uruk King]

Good to know.

I was also realized that ther is something wrong with Glorfindel's hair colour, its supposed to be blonde not white!

[m@tt]

"Glorfindel" means "golden hair"

[Nazgûl]

Glorfindel will get his blonde hair, even though it's kinda booring that so many Elves have blonde hair like the Lorien Swordsmen, Haldir, Thranduil, Legolas and now Glorfindel... :/ I might alter the swordsmen to some kind of "dark blonde" or something, os white like Zimoo suggested, but that's also "booring" since the Lorien Warrios have white... hmmm.

Changing art is easy technically but an enormous workload, and I for one like the sepia art, and that also goes through ALL art, even structures and there's simply no way I'll change all art in the game. Consistancy is required. So sorry about that...

[Uruk King]

Oh well never mind. Howabout adding King Brand to the Dwarven faction? obviously hes not gonna look like an archer version of Boromir like in ROTWK he could look something like this:

The Thain's Book/Brand

but the point is the Dwarves are a bit short of heroes so why not start buffing up those numbers. They also have no archer heroes and of course they have the archers of Dale so why not have Brand to go with them?

[Nazgûl]

Yeah I like that... I'll see what I can do. The problem with adding units is just that they require audio as well, at least if you wanna do it properly and not just use someone elses audio. It can work for units but it's another thing for heroes. Id like them to say his name when he's spawned and dies, and not "Elrond is dead" or something. So that's one problem with adding heroes... :/ But I agree, they're kinda short on heroes and archer units...

[Mordor Slayer]

You can use the King Brand model from the Deluxe mod? They had a good model...
