YAY...that's gonna be one of my favorite additions. you can use the same voiceover as the spider riders, since they don't say anything about actually riding a spider. =D

I guess i will go through all the voices and check which are suitable and which i will replace with other goblin voices.

With any luck, the Spider sounds are not mixed with the voices...
Other than that we'll use regular Warg sounds off course... =)

ok...here's an idea for an ability they could have...
Whip of the Master-Goblin riders gain +75% speed. makes them good for chasing down enemies.

Thats a pretty good idea. In The Hobbit they Wargs chased them up into a tree. They must have been pretty good in a chase.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Verrrry nice.
Anyways, goblins have a lack of archer power. perhaps you could take the half-troll model, remove the spear and add a bow and quiver, and bind it to the haradrim archer skeleton? Eventually make them rather ragged, too. Call em Gundabad Archers. Only other archer anim that i think would work would be the Gondor soldier one, but IDK. Still, gobs need an archer since spider riders are gone, and i think half-troll archers would be a cool addition.

They sure do =) It's just less rusty, and thus less red/brown and more black-ish

Sounds...awesome. can't wait to see em. How bout the Gundabad archer, ehh? Gve the half-troll a bow and arrows and bind it to some archer, maybe haradrim archer. Your choice, but the gobs need another archer now, especially a "specialist" one, now that spider riders are gone.

Just some stuff I'd like to see:
1. Moria needs a focus to make it a proper unified faction. I think that stealth and sneaky tactics should be this focus. More hit-and-run tactics, stealthed units, stealing resources, temporarily shutting down enemy buildings, assassination powers, perhaps units that can burrow and tunnel around under the map like Shelob. Remember in The Hobbit how the company was sleeping and all of a sudden they were snatched and captured? Or how in the FoTW film, how the fellowship was walking through Moria when they were suddenly completely surrounded by Gobbos? Goblins would be great fun to play as a guerilla army, which is something that is definitely missing from BFME2
2. Get rid of that shit 'crack' thing that Giants come out from. How the hell does a giant come out from a pool of mud? I'd make it look like there's some wide crevice or cave in a rocky outcrop that the goblins have fortified or embellished in some way

^^1st thing, i agree. 2nd, it's worthless. The fissure is a working building, and it's not worth replacing IMO. Plus, buildings are incredibly hard to skin. Unless that was somethin Naz wanted to do for his later beta, i'd doubt on seeing it anytime soon. Although honestly, i agree. Goblin units coming out of a cesspool=FAIL.

@Guest: I like those thoughts... I also think they are in line with the movies. I'll consider them and discuss with my "producer" =)
About the Fissure... funny that you said that, cause last night while playing I was thinking the same. I agree with GN too (as GN knows) cause the structure is indeed working per sé (build ups, anims and damage states) so I'd still wanna use it for something. But maybe a scaled cave of some sort would fit better graphically and "realistically" for Giants and Cave Trolls (hence the "cave", hehe). It's only that it would lack all those things (anims and such).

Hello
Thankyou for paying attention even though I'm just a guest.
I will now join under the name of Frinkmakesyouthink.
If you need help then I gladly offer my services, although I haven't modded a game since the original Command and Conquer series so I'm probably not much use in the coding or modelling department.

Yay, he registered. And around here, there's no such thing as being "just a guest". A lot of the time, guests have the best ideas.
still, glad u registered.
OT: how hard would it be to make individual goblin units capable of tunneling on their own?

Easy. Just copy the Shelob code. Don't know how hard it would be to make this work for a horde though..
And obviously, digging animations are missing.

Hey, np, I don't consider Guests as lesser people or anything
Only when they behave badly, hehe... which you didn't. You stepped in, you showed respect and you suggested, instead of "demanding", that even long time forum members can still unfortionately do sometimes. It's all about attitude 
Welcome to T3A
*sorry for the OffT guys*
About the tunneling gobbos... nah, I don't think I want that. They have their normal tunnels, that would kinda make those unneeded
