omg!! very nice anims dude.. also extremly good skins here!! do you btw mean that these anims will be used for all 3 types of spearman?
haha finally first to say omg

[Elen Naro]

If I had any right to condemn you for being late, which I don't, I would've whole-heartedly forgiven you after seeing this. These anims rock! Question though: why does the rohan guy have the white tree (of gondor I presume) on his shield?

[Lauri]

they aren't the rohan guy... their spearmen of Pelargir
There are no rohan men in the anims, he just mentioned that they shall also recive these anims

[Gothmog14]

Very fluid and nicely done. Fantastic update.

[cahik_]

ah...i thought that those models are far to obvious to mention what units are those

[hman]

Those are great, but is Rohan really gonna have spearmen? I was hoping they'd stay more calvary based than that.

Looks nice, I especially like the idle and formation anims.

Brilliant. really like the new jabbing motion.. Reminds me somewhat of 300. Two thumbs up! Also, I don't know if we've seen those skins before, but they are phenomenal.

The factions do need some diversity though. There's going to be so much new gameplay; every faction will need more than one way to win. For example, you can't just build an immense amount of upgraded cavalry with support heroes to win as Rohan anymore especially since other factions will be able to counter that style of play and then take advantage of your lack of remaining troops. Well, that's my understanding thus far (in my extended absence from the forums)

[Bard]

He means Rohan spearmen as the previously shown "Westfold Helmingas", some of them have spears.
Rohan isn't getting a dedicated spear-wielding-only unit, not to my knowledge.

[hman]

(Sighs in relief) thats good to know, I frown upon mods that give Rohan any heavy infantry or spearmen, unless its through a minifaction of course.

I take it there's not an update for this week?

[m@tt]

No-one was really around or could be bothered 2 days before Christmas to do something last week. But most of us are back this week, and for once the peek is actually on time!

It is something a bit different this time. Ever wondered what I've been doing the last 10-11 months? Since I joined, RA has gone from 0 new maps to a lot more. And here is the list of all the finished ones (bar one I forgot). And there's still more to come!

Note that it is just a list, so you can't view any of the maps. I'm also going to upload all the loading images to go with the minimaps too when I get a chance.

Hey, well done man. Keep up the great work and have a grand new year (don't do anything too stupid ).

[Bebbe]

Sounds good.
About the maps made by 'EA' , are they there because you have added mini-factions plots ?

[Lauri]

lemme see, EA maps..

Amon Hen
Edoras
Helm's Deep
Isengard
Lothlorien
Minas Tirith
Shelob's Lair

Well, I guess you can figure out the rest yourself

[cahik_]

i dont think so

those are campaing only missions in vanilla game now they are turned into skirmirsh maps also

[Bebbe]

Oh , I just haven't played the game in a couple of months , so I didn't know if they were playable in skirmish.

[Gothmog14]

Woah! Lots of maps. Nice job. I hope there'll be some more desert maps . Are you planning of doing the Sea of Rhûn? Happy New Years btw
