I thoroughly enjoy merry and pippin riding treebeard. But do they actually attack units automatically? When I tell treebeard to attack something, then merry and pip throw rocks. But I don't really remember seeing them attack something by themselves, without me telling treebeard to attack a unit. Is it just me? ;)

They work the same as archers in a tower. The only difference is that their range is pretty short, so enemies must be pretty close. By that time Treebeard is already attacking.

Perhaps the ents could get an ability to plant just normal trees? Elven mallorn trees could be replaced by elven farms (building are available in world editor). Mallorn trees could get for the elves the function to acquire power points. Add a new one time cast 25 pp power, by replacing flood or sunflare, called Girdle of Melian or Power of Nenya. It keeps evil creatures out of a radius of one elvish fortress by poisoning them or instilling fear into them.

Elven farms will be added for Beta V. It's talked about earlier in this thread ;) Mallorn trees will be given some meaningful purpose of some sort along with that.

Didn't we already decide that mallorn trees were going to be new, smaller, cheaper arrow towers? Like rohan's?

It's leaning towards that yeah... but something might be added or removed from that idea by the time we get to it, but that is the most likely idea though, yes :good:

I had an idea for thranduil. I always thought of him more as a magical type, not that of archery skill. You could give him a more cloaky looking skin and a cool staff and add different more magical powers to him. this could give more depth to the elf race. \

Magic?
What Magic do you mean?
Something like Gandalfs Powers? I don't think, that this would be good, because in LotR only Istari were able to use magic. But if you mean something like Aragorn's Athelas, i would be very fond of the idea =)

yeah, i dont care if he's the same in 4.5, it's just dumb to have basically 2 legolas's in the same faction.

Of all that have posted about Thranduil, EVERYONE wants him to change, and we're not completely impossible - so I will make sure we do a new Thranduil, or I will try to find a great donation, but it has to be of very high class off course, like the new Glorfindel we got from Wars of Arda =)

The only sad part is that Elves would loose an archer that way, and I'd like Elves to have "many" archer heroes. But we'll see...

- Lego already HAVE a new skin and it's pretty much exactly that ^
- Galadriel Ring Hero will be removed for Beta V.
- Gwaihir is a Nest Hero, just like Drogoth. I see no reason to change that...

You need to catch up on your reading...

i mean that Gwaihir can be on the battlefield 3 or 5 or 10000 times.Thats not very realistic cause there is only 1 Gwaihir.That should be fixed.

You do remember that there was more than one eagle in the movie. And they were not all Gwaihir. So, all eagles that are not the ElvenFortressEagle are also not Gwaihir. :)

Unless there is more than one elven player in a skirmish, there will be no duplicate heroes. But that is true with all factions and all heroes. :p

I was thinking for legolas, we could make him switch between bow and sword, or do you just think that knife fighter ability is good enough for him?

Celeborn and Elrond have the same powers.So i had an idea:Leave Celeborn as he is and change Elrond into the young Noldor Warrior Elrond.
Give him some new Powers like leadership,swprdmaster and two abilities with Vilya.

Not sure if this has been said yet, but Hobbit production speed is way faster than normal unit production. Makes them somewhat unbalanced, because even though they are weak, they come in very large numbers (that sounds like something Orcs should be doing). Also, it would be cool if you could either make heroes more expensive or make them take longer to create, because they come out really fast (the speed at which heroes revive should probably be the speed in which hey are created).

Overall though, the mod is great, except for that one little Hobbit issue.

A. I think Elrond shouldn't be touched. as this is a movie mode he shouldn't be any diffrent looking than in the movie.
B. Elrond is over 6000 years old, I don't think that making him younger will impact on his appearance, imo Hugo weaving as he is atm is perfect and shouldn't be changed.
C. Celeborn is the one that should have more unique powers.

and guest, I think that problem was already fixed if I'm not mistaken.
