No, they're going to die. Like in the books (weren't shown in the films.. ).

[{IRS}Athos]

But that would screw up the lore quite a bit... I don't think so.

EDIT: I was talking to Nethelen.

For the Last Alliance mission, (I think there is one forgot where i heard it though), will it be possible for people who died there to be saved (Gil-Galad, Elendil, Oropher, Anorian). It wouldn't make much difference for Elendil and Anorian, as they would have died eventually anyways, but it means you could use Gil-Galad, Oropher, any ive missed in the campaign too for defending one of the elven cities.

That mission is still in a very early production stage. The main missing asset I believe is the new audio for these units - for me there's no point in making a voiceless mission...

Yet again, Hasfusel saves the day.



Wait, there's gonna be a Last Alliance map? Cool.
Although I'd personally rather have a Scouring of the Shire map.

[Dre@mer]

Who said there won't be a Scouring of the Shire mission?

We are creating campaign chronologically - starting epic with the mentioned Last Alliance mission, continuing with Hobbit, followed by the three Lord of the Rings books.

Take this link, but try googling next time.

Perhaps it would be a good idea for their to be a campaign mission where the elves of Mirkwood must set up ambushes for evil forces besieging mirkwood. This was talked about in BMFE 2 but their was never a mission for it on the side of good and that really dissapointed me. I also think there should be some missions where you play as remnants of arnor fighting in the North against a newly risen angmar becuase if you read the books, Aragorn reforms the kingdom of Arnor after the war. this seems to hint that some remnants of the kingdom existed in some form and they proabbly shoulld be included along with the dunedain in the war in the north mission. I also think that when you conquer Rhun and Harad thet they should both be linear missions where you must slay the king of both countries.

[Devon]

We'll see.

The campaign may already contain things similar to what you said in planning. Or it may not. This Yoda's not saying

[mike_]

This mike is

I'm hoping for a very fleshed out campaign. There should be some nice Mirkwood and Arnor missions.

[shadowfoxt]

this is sounding better every day

[{IRS}Athos]

Sounds lovely!

[hallmackers]

Sounds lovely!

Maybe their should be a mission in which Umbar is besieged. It would be a good misssion for a combined naval and land assault. also when will version 1.06 comeout and will it have any new mission?

[{IRS}Athos]

Version 1.06 is slated for release sometime in February. An Umbar mission would be cool... perhaps Telumehtar's assault on said city, if you're doing the whole history?

/looks at my Harad Campaign ideas

[hallmackers]

I would really like it if there was a mission where the dwarves reclaim Moria. You know, like in the online game. Also i think that their should be some missions where you help out dwarves living in the red mountians to the east. Oh and for the Umbar mission , i think there should be one takeing place during the war of the ring, and the assault should be led by aragorn.

There was a part in the appendices where it mentioned Aragorn leading an attack on Umbar, while he was serving Ecthelion under a different name. Maybe that's when an Umbar mission could take place.

The campaign ideas all sound great; it'll be quite the experience once its all finished!

One thing I wanted to mention is this: I have an issue with the walls. Once you lose a wall hub (and that’s usually a first target) the rest of that wall segment is worthless. You may have kept everything else, but the only way you can rebuild that wall hub is to tear down what’s standing and rebuild. I think they could stand to be made a lot stronger, but that’s beside the issue. Would it be possible to make wall hubs rebuildable, like the regular wall segments?

[shadowfoxt]

You can upgrade wall segments to wall hubs if need be.

[Berethin]

Good point! Maybe I should have thought of that before...

Still, is there a wall that wall hubs could be made rebuidable? Sometimes they're the only thing you lose.
