*cough*

Pretty good cents.. I like it. I was never really happy with the elven cavalry as they look too much like the Noldor really. Maybe we could make them a light Lorien cavalry, with bare horse backs, and Lorien swordsmen on top (since this faction is mostly represented by Lothlorien anyways)! *noted*

yes nazgul i knew that was there before.my other post was backing yours up.

[SovietSoldier]

also,how about giving merry and pippin armor.you can make a special ability of them getting a boost to speed or power,and when that ability turns on,merry gets rohan armor,pippin gets gondor armor.

[Nazgûl]

That is also in the pipeline (planned) already I think it's in the ToDo list as well

[Nazgûl]

You mean for the fortress keep? That would be a LOT of work for such a detail. I like the Ents... However, we will have a Huorn summon power

Personally, another thing that always bothered me, was that Elves don't have any catapults or archer towers that can be built into their walls. Its weird because the walls are big and fortress-like... yet they've got no defense unless your workers are willing to build thirty or forty SEPARATE archer towers

This is from the ToDo list:

- Wall Upgrades for Elves!
* Arrow Tower
* Vigilant Ent

Sorry, didn't see it...

[Nazgûl]

Noo problem at all. I was only trying to make you happy, hehe
Do read up on that thread though, it's loaded with stuff

Gladly, and thank god the elven walls are going to get some defense

[Nazgûl]

Indeed, the vanilla version sucks... they're just like useless carbon paper... lol

[Grig]

Pretty much. They can hold the enemy off long enough for you to MAYBE get some soldiers and hero's in the path to defend against them - but other than that their about three inches short of useless.

In the books and movies, the elven fortresses neither had walls, catapults or arrow towers, like the Men Of The West and Dwarves had.

In the LOTR trilogy books and movies the elves never left Lothlorian or Rivendell

Save for Arwen, the elven attachment to Helms Deep and Elronds sons that is. Almost all the battles in the north involved the dwarves and the men that lived there - with the elves help... sometimes.

I guess if that reply was to me, I miss your point
Note, Mirkwood.

But I dont understand if that was to me, how that has anything to do with wanting to put cats and towers on elven walls.... so I am just curious.

[SovietSoldier]

oh,something for merry and pippin.
Nazgul Bane:this ability gives Merry more strength against nazgul.
Troll's Bane:gives pippin more strength against trolls.

The three assaults on Lothlorien? The Battle Under the Trees? The siege of Dul Guldor?

Uhm... this is the second time I don't understand your posts...? Was that a question, or a statement?
