So protect them.

[Dalf32]

it really not that hard to keep a hero alive for an entire match, especially when he/she is surrounded by such good company (remember, the 3 heroes all come together).

besides, having the power unusable after the first time, differentiates it from all of the other summoning powers in the game. its become sort of the 'easy way out' and detracts from uniqueness in the mod as a whole. imo, this helps to stray away from that trend

Why not have them become recruitable after being Summoned the first time? Making it a Passive Power.

[shadowcreature]

Interesting. Wonder if that's possible though.

[Uruk King]

Even so, by the time you can recruit them, all you other heroes would be on higher levels.

[Dragonforce]

No, If theyre lvl 10 when summoned. And they could revive quicker than other heroes

No, cause they didn't really belong to rohan. They came to help then ran off to Gondor

[Silindor-Blue-Wolfrayet]

i agree with Mike..good idea..i don't want to have Theoden as Rohan's best hero..the Three Hunters spell could change..you may have to pay 25 spell points to use it..and..just remove the horses who look ike an elvish flood..the last mach of the ents spell..should stay where it is..

I has thinking perhaps the Mounted Royal Guards could be Rohan's Mini Hero Horde, the Royal Gurds on foot could be Rohan's elite units, and can be bought without limit, but please there really shouldn't be elves as recruitable Rohan units.

[Canadyan]

Why would you want Theoden to not be the strongest hero? He's the King of Rohan. In any case, Heroes from outside Rohan shouldn't be there strongest.

The Mod is really feeling distinctive between Factions now with the Elves split up, I really don't recommend the Three Hunters becoming recruitable on Rohan, it'll detract from the Rohan feel.

One use summon, no revive

Agree and disagree. I think that Theoden is is at a really good spot right now. His functions now fulfill his purpose in my opinion. Now if we can get Eowyn to have a purpose...

But realistically speaking the Three Hunters would be able to cut down more enemies than Theoden any day.

Something completely different: Eowyn's skin is sooo ugly! Please make a new skin for her. You zoom in, you see all those great skins for other units, and then Eowyn.

[Dalf32]

well of course they would, there are three of them
that does not change the fact, however, that they should not be recruitable for rohan. pulling one hero from each of the other three good factions (excluding arnor) and allowing rohan to unlock them as normal heros detracts from uniqueness. besides, they did not fight for rohan all that long, and already have their own homes (gondor, elves, and dwarves).

and with regards to theoden being rohan's best hero: rohan is not a hero-based faction (like mordor or gondor) and as such, its heros should not be terribly powerful.
having said that, theoden is not a unit killing hero, but he is very useful; there are few things more terrifying in bfme than seeing an army of FU rohirrim charging towards you with glorious charge (if you dont believe me, play yoda's rohan). thats what rohan is all about, so not having an uber-leet unit-killer shouldnt be an issue for them.

[Devon]

Rohan is certainly focused on heroes, but in a different way than Gondor and Mordor.


Like dalf said, Rohan's heroes aren't really about killing 500 people in three minutes like Legolas or tanking a battle like Gimli. It's all excellent leadership and great buffing powers.

yeah, you always saw theoden being protected, while Gimli, aragorn, legolas, Gandalf... ect was running up to the enemy's and giving them a good wooping

[{IRS}Athos]

Theoden is an old man. He wouldn't be uber-powerful...

[Florisz]

But he is uber-leader...ish.

[Canadyan]

I'm all for fixing up Eowyn. She needs a level 10 power desperately, AFAIK, her Rohirrim Disguise does nothing against AI and altogether, is just pretty silly. She's the last hero I'd want to hide from my enemy.
