or instead of a spellbook power you could use that for the goblin drummer

[Nazgûl]

The Drummer has that, kind of... Test and you'll see (same as Mordor Troll)

[some best guest]

oh the drummer troll and goblin drummer are the same

[Nazgûl]

Was that a question or a remark? They are not the same... but the have the same kind of power...

[Garrison Nomad]

think he meant the animations....

but ok...so i think it'd be cooler if more powers weren't about "summoning". summoning is SOOO bland. more environmental + buff-debuff effects would be nice, or big explosions. everybody loves explosions, except for the people that experience them.

but yeah, sorry if i threw my 2 cents at you, but still. The dragonstrike thing will make it better =).

[Nazgûl]

That's what we're aiming at, less summons and more enviromental things =)

[Garrison Nomad]

Then i say *praise*.

Well, here's some absolutely free ideas. Use any you like.

Goblins (my homedogs)
1-Simple thief-temporarily redirects resources produced from target resource structure to goblins.
2-Balrog Spire-firey tower spawns from the ground and shoots fireballs at hearby foes (a twist on the lone tower)
3-Swarm Fiend-Passive power. Goblin warriors, pikes, and archers have +150% armor while moving.
4-Corrupted Legion-target units gain +200% armor and damage, but become neutral and kill all nearby units. Can be cast on allied or enemy units.
5-Leech of Decay-target unit structure builds 200% slower.
6-Stone Shield-target goblins/trolls turn to stone. They gain +300% armor and health, heal, but cannot attack. (stone model for troll is in there, but not sure about gobs. probably just freeze their anim.)
7-Sauron's Calling-target enemy units become parylized with fear. Can be cast on certain lesser heroes.

isengard
1-legion's calling-all isengard units move +50% faster
2-Saruman's Corruption-target enemy building ceases resource-troop production temporarily.
3-Crebain-a murder of crebain (lol?) sweeps over enemy units, dealing knockback damage.
(not much for them)

Mordor
1-Fiery Doom-Flames of mount doom shower target enemy units.
2-comsuming Presence-target allied units temporarily steal health.

ok, that's all i got. more for gobs, but hey. everybody's got a pretend area of expertise.

[Mordor Slayer]

Love some of those ideas! Did you get some of them from The Third Age ?

Edti(Sûl):nothing. Not Edit necessary no more.

Mordor should have a call of the ring power where they can temporially see the ring or gollum anywhere on the map

[Garrison Nomad]

^MotW has that already.

oh, and i didn't get any of them from 3rd age. most of them are Guild wars inspired =D.

[The Best Guest]

i could never figure out why motw could see the ring anywhere on the map and mordor couldn't

[Nazgûl]

^ What? MotW can't see the Ring anywhere?

The only ones who can are Mordor with Eye of Sauron? <

[The Best Guest]

with ivory tower they see it for 30 sconds

[Nazgûl]

Yeah that... well that's limited in range now (in b4.5)

[Uruk King]

I have an idea for Mordor:

Flies of the Black Land- summons a cloud of bloodsucking flies, they drain life from the units they are attacking, like a mini army of the dead.

[Lord of the Rings Junkie]

I have an idea for one, it would be a powerful screen clearing move sort of like Gandalf's Word of Power for Isengard.

Wizard Fury - A huge projectile ball of electrical energy hits anywhere on the map. FX would be similar to Gandalf's lightning sword and Isengard fortress's wizard tower, but emit radially from the point of impact. Shoots up too, to hit air units!

[The Best Guest]

i like that but it would hve to be a 25pp spell

[Nazgûl]

Those are not bad ideas... The flies sond cool. I'm just not sure how much FX we can do, since our FX dude has pretty much left the forums =P We'll see when we get to the spell books in a couple of months or so

[The Best Guest]

who was the fx guy and a elven spell "Haste of the Eldar" where every allied unit on the map gains +20% attack speed
