all looking good

[Juissi]

Cool I really want to see how Uruk-Hai Shieldman will be used

Btw your desicion to have Isengard heroes in hordes of 5, seems kinda interesting

[zimoo]

I think shieldman might be able to attach to battering rams to greatly increase their defense value

Whoops! Gotta be more careful when copying and pasting. Fixed it

@ Zimoo I was thinking of maybe doing something to that effect. I'll see what I can come up with.

[Lauri]

hm, I'm not to fond of the 3 first Isengard heroes....

[Mathijs]

Neither am I. This map's goal is to bring the battle of Helm's Deep like it was in the movies right?

Then why have Saruman, Lurtz and Gríma?

Not necessarily true... Although I'm creating this mod with a lot of inspiration from the movie, my goal is also to incoporate other elements into it. There's going to be some cool and surprising featuers that are not from the movie to add a much more surprise element to it. For example, Saruman is going to be a lot different from the one in the game now. Trust me, the things that are not from the movie are going to be a neat addition to this mod

[Gherrick]

Can you tell us something about THEM...and how they will be incorporated.... pleaaaaaaaaaaaase!!

[Servant of Sauron]

Mmm...I love the battle of Helm's Deep. Best battle in the movies IMO.

Personally I think the only Isengard heroes available should be a generic Uruk-hai Captain and Wulf because Lurtz and Sharku were both dead by Helm's Deep and Saruman/Wormtongue were non-combatants.

Rohan's primary strength should be its heroes and Isengard's primary strength its numbers...again, IMHO.

Yea, I know, but as I stated in the above post, I'm going to add my own touch to the battle. Don't worry about the Isengard heoes. They will be edited, and there will be many surprises on how they appear

[Servant of Sauron]

Sounds good!

[Devon]

1 minor thing

Sure! That's really easy... but I'm just curious, why do you like the name yeoman?

[Servant of Sauron]

Is it because the Yeoman Archers implies that they're drafted peasants as opposed to proffesional soldiers?

[Devon]

yeah, and its also a lot less generic than simply saying rohan this, or rohan that. also, the word just sounds cool

[Rob38]

I agree. I'll change it right away.

[Caluadan]

quite some cool units in that list

[jimiojoe]

who is wulf?

[mike_]

A suggestion-maybe you could rename the Rohan Builder to something like "Rohirric Porter"? It sounds a lot less generic, if you ask me
Cheers, and great job so far,
