war for moria, isn't that about Balin and his lust for Moria? Cause if it is, then it's after the Five Armies ;) :p

I always thought it had to do with Thrain declaring war on them when Aozg killed his father. I could be wrong though.

And btw Lauri, congrats on your 4000+.

Just wondering about the likely make up for the Goblins in the mod. Although im firmly in the 'evil men' camp, having seen some of the goblin stuff im a bit more interested in them! (amazing what some talented people can do to change a person opinion!)

Firstly, since they now have goblin pikemen does that mean the orrible' half-trolls will not be in the game anymore? I never did the like the whole goblins as a mix of weak units and strong units like half-trolls. To me thats mordors role. Gobs in my opinion should all be about the hordes. Like in films when absolute tons of them descend on the fellowship out of nowhere!

What would really make them worhwhile is the following:

1) Name change to Moria
2) Half trolls, spider riders and that god awful scorpion cast into oblivion!! (In the scoprions case, cast and brought back, then cast back again time and time again till no one even remembers its existence!)

Some suggestions.

Half trolls completely binned in favour of gob pikes. Spider riders binned for something like the warg pack isen got in ROTWK, and most importantly, the gob king riding a wolf/warg, not a flaming scorpion!!

NP, you're not flaming =) Thanks for your kind words about our work and efforts to improve EA's work :)

- I like EvilMen too
- I like the Gobs better now as well, since we improved them =)
- The "Half Trolls" will be a limited elite unit of "buff" goblins/orcs and renamed most likely.
- The Goblin Spearmen will replace them as anti cavalry =)
- The faction will be named Moria
- The Spider Riders will be Creep units only
- Goblin King will be Great Goblin, but we-ll keep the scorpion (cause it's pain to remodel and animate a new model)

:sad2:

Model and re-model? Not necessary, just remove his 'mount scorpion' power and we're all happy ;)
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

yeah, why does he has to ride? i think it's cooler to have a really big and strong gob that smashes everything in his way and can summon HORDES of gobbos (you remember, i'm a fan of big-ass battles ^^) Call Greater Reinforcements could be his lvl 10 power...

I was talking about if we give him ANOTHER mount :p That would require modeling and animation of higher sort =p

Just remove the scorpion would be no problem, other that we loose a fully functional model =p

If their was a fully functional pink bear model, would you use it :p? Besides, the Goblins don't need a cavalry hero I think... Infantry for hit and run is the way to go.

Yeah I agree. I don't really like the Scorpion either...
But in terms of Cavalry, most are screaming for Wolf Riders, so we started work on those, a little bit :p

Just keep in mind that wolves are the same as wargs in Tolkien's world.

No fuel left for the pilgrims

Allight allright, Scorpion will go... :p

Matias = Are you 110% sure about that? There's no wolves in Tolkiens world? Only Wargs??? I think that would make them too much like Isengards Warg riders.... :/

So the wolves in RotWK and the nautral wolves are all just made up for the games?
