and why ?

in the movie they were mounted swordsman, and adding spears to them would make them look too much like rohirrim.
But they could be added as weaker, cheaper scout mounts. Though i dont really think Gondor is of a need of another horse unit. For this role fills Rohan up. The only mounts that Gondor has are his own knights, and then the KoDAS who represent the Southern Fiefdom allies

[Uruk King]

I understand Gondor is not as cavalry composed as Rohan, but there should at least be a nod to the use of a spear by a Knight in Gondor, a toggle ability perhaps?
Or would that make them too good?

Anyway I was wondering if any changes to the WotR Living World Map such as adding Amon Hen and deviding the region of Rohan. I mean in the future there are gonna be more Rohan missions than present at the moment?

[Shikari]

That is something we would love to do, but at the moment we have no way of editing the living world map. :(

Yes I had that same thought myself however there strength did not lie in cavalry but in infantry. Also Knights are not bad cavalry, against buildings they are equally as good as Rohirrim: however they could benefit from a reduction in price slightly as 600 is to expensive for a basic cavalry unit.

[Uruk King]

Technically they're Gondor's only cavalry aside from th KoDA, not to mention being well armed and armoured for standard cavalry. So that makes them worth the price.

[Myrdin]

well i dunno about that, i think the Knights go down ( die ) pretty fast ( not speaking about pikes now ), maybe they could get a little increase in resistance ( after all, these guys are cowered with nice shiny, plate mail armor ), or if not i think 500 would be good price for them.

hmm Gondor gives me the idea of Infantry nation, that has decent infantry ( later pretty cool foot units, both, that names end up with ... Guards ), for cheap purchase price. its something diferent than hard armored, heavy and expensive uruk infantry, and i think that you can see the wariety of the races well on Gondor ( at gondor ? . . ?? ).

Cheap and efective units, but nothing too OP, for the price, and units combo wariations cower for it more than good

*just small plea - let Fountain Guard be able to combine with Tower Guard ( hmm i think i got the name wrong, srry, im too tired right now ), i would love to move around with one bat, of most elite Gondor troops

[Shinobi.]

Are you thinking of Citadel Guards?

And if you are i totally agree that would be awesome

[Funbomb]

...*sigh*
tompabus, tompabus, tompabus....for the last time, NO

That would be nice with fountain and citadel guards together. Got some strong pikes in front and strong archers in back that can also toggle.

[Myrdin]

yeh, and then the feeling " wow i have the most elite gondor units in one group, ooo i need to pwn something with them "

[Myrdin]

first : This mod wont be finished soo soon, soo waiting till the final wersion comes out, is wasting of time, becouse if you look at this, there are only elfes who are fast done with the " reborning " in RJ rotwk, even if all other races would take just half of this time ( which i hope not, for i want them all soo cool upgraded as the elfes ), theres still no way it will be done in one or two months.

second : There is already a dl, wersion, which includes already all races, but the AI wont play rohan or mote, but there is still pretty much in there, soo if you are interested just dl that, its faar from the final wersion, but its still pretty good

[Devon]

Ai does play rohan on rj maps, just not normal skirmish.

[Myrdin]

well true, but i hope itll be able to do normal as well, coz i play them more ( yeh i know you like rj more )

[Captain of Arnor]

I'd like to play War of the Ring and actually fight the Elves and Arnor when I choose Fall of Arnor, instead of Boromir and Aragorn and Gondor.

Also, what about adding some of the other heroes to Arnor, maybe the king of Gondor that came up to help them after they got tired of The Witch-King busting their chops for like, four hundred years? And I still think Glorfindel belongs with Arnor, sorta.

[Devon]

check out arnor in normal wotr map

[Captain of Arnor]

I have, but I can't play as Arnor. When you play as Arnor and one of the heroes you're playing is defeated, he kinda goes blank on the screen. And if you try to move the hero (any of them, it happens with all of them) the game closes. If you're fighting Arnor, it works fine. But if you play as them...yeah. See above XD
