Link doesn't work. BTW, does anyone here play the miniature game? I used to play with a friend of mine who had some basic sets, the only pieces I have for myself are the Balrog and the Wild Warg Chieftain.And they pretty much say it all here: http://us.games-work...mumak_mahud.htm

maybe you could ad the great spiders of Mirkwood (info: Great Spiders of Mirkwood) as an elite unit
azog and bolg for the goblins (http://www.tuckborou.../orcs.html#Azog)
and for the dwarves maybe all the heroes from "the Hobbit"
i'm just giving you sugestions look around on that site there a lot of heroes for both goblins and dwarves

Is Drogoth going to have a falling death animation like eagles and fellbeasts?

No, he will keep his special explosion (I think EA was inspired by the explosion of the fire works dragon in the first movie, but I kida like it). Besides it would be huge work to animate that from scratch =p

Any ideas for a new isen flying unit? A crebain swarm would be really cool, especially if it could cleave through both airborne and ground alike. Plus, it'd be unique to isengard.

Bah, clone. I meant a swarm!!! You know, like tiny little crows pecking the eyes out of their unfortunate victims faces. THOSE kinds of crows.
Sheesh.
Sheesh.

- I like the Creabain swarm, but... it would kinda make the Crebain summon spell, sorta obsolete? :/
- I'd like to ad Wulf too. I wish we could just use the RotWK model...
- Mauhur would be too similar too Ugluk I guess...
- Hama will be added!
- Gamling would be too siliar to Hama...
- Aragorn bow toggle would be cool and needed too, I'll see if our poor animator can do that for BetaV...
- Legolas might get a cape for bV too...

if you want aragorn with bow, it's better to just Faramirimize him not make totally new anims... (RA did that though

lie. not a new frame there
just put aragorn's anims with faramir's skeleton into cooking pot and some special spice from cahik and cook for 4 hours and voiala because RA has it
better wait for RA then. i absolutly dont get point of fans who want the stuff from RA in other mods
i highly doubt that anyone will do that. it is kinda problematic work and result isnt worth of it. i did it for RA just because that mod should have everything

For those who developed SEE first just a comment (I will save any suggestions for later...) I just wanted to tell you that your mod is extremely fun! Thank you so much for what you have done with it. I really enjoyed BFME II when it first came out and subsequently ROTWK but I think my play reached a pinnacle and the games become not as satisfying as at first. I downloaded your Beta IV a few weeks ago and I am re-addicted to the game! I have always enjoyed stacking up brutal computers to an almost unsurmountable odds and then just walling myself off to defend the onslaught, but structures would go down quickly which is unrealistic so it got frustrating. Enter SEE... this is the most fun I have had with a computer game ever! At first I didn't really read what was new; I just played it. Can I say I about soiled myself when I saw Grond roll into my base for the first time, talk about a surprise, I think I seriously started yelling out loud (and I was by myself). I mean it sort of startled me, I mean this huge wolf's head attached to a big turd looking thing is coming to kill me... and I had to quickly save the game to show my friends that play the regular version. Man what a delight! I have loved all things Middle-Earth since I was a kid and I just want you guys to know that you have created a masterpiece and someone out there really appreciates what you have done, I love it, good job guys!
Now for suggestions:
Well I really like the game the way it is so I really wouldn't change much I have read over this entire thread and there are a few minor things like getting rid of the spider riders that would be good.
One thing I thought of the other day that would add an interesting and a purist twist, when the Witch King is on his fellbeast and it gets killed wouldn't it be cool if he got up off the dead beast (like at Pellanor Fields) and then he, the Witch King, had to subsequently be killed. I don't know if would be possible but it seems since he can already dismount it would take little work. I realize this will make him more powerful so maybe increasing his cost would balance it out. I am sure some people would want to do this with all the Nazgul but it may make Mordor too powerful, however just for the Wiki it might be a nice addition. ( I always play the good guys, so I am not making this suggestion out of selfishness, it would make my games more difficult if anything).
One more thing it seems because of the Elves affinity for bows that nearly all of their heros should be able to toggle to a bow. (Obviously none of the Galadrials would) Celeborn likely would use a bow and maybe a little less so but it would not be far reaching that Glorfindel and Elrond maybe even Arwen would also have some sort of bow for battle. I am not suggesting anything too special to overpower them just medium ranged bows to use when they are defending their fortress.
Anyway none of these suggestions are of great importance but just ideas.

Wow!! 
Thank you SO much! 
That was probably the nicest put compliment we've gotten so far 
It's really motivating to hear that people can get so much fun from what we do. We're also Lord of the Rings fanatics naturally, so it makes me glad to hear that you think that we have treated the concept good
The goal is, and have always been, to take the very good but milited production that EA did, and make it into something that is appreciated in that way that you just described 
Thanks!
The Grond thing made me laugh... 
About your suggestions:
- I love the thought of having WK do that and I don't think it would be impossible. I'll discuss it with my head coder =)
- About the Elves... this is harder to do, since it would involve a LOT of remoeling and reanimating those heroes. I doubt we'd find time and energy for such a task. I also think the elves are a true "bow using kind of race"... but giving them all bows could also overpower them against say Mordor. The Fells would go down like sparrows...
