so exactly how does a MotW player get Rohan stuff?

so exactly how does a MotW player get Rohan stuff?

In game, when you click on a builder and the right sidebar appears, click on the flag at the top of the column of icons, and it switches to the options available for Rohan, and vice versa

Does that answer it for you?

Nice to have you playing the SEE Mod, hope you will stick around.

Discussion on mod size moved HERE!

I got a suggestion, and yes I'm the guest who posted wrong >_>
Give Gandalf a eagle to ride on, cuz he and the witch king are like rivals. So that would make perfect sense.

Sauron - Galadriel
Gandalf - Witch king

The witch king is more powerful than Gandalf if I'm not mistaken, but the eagles are more powerful than those fellbeasts. So that would make the witch king and Gandalf even in a way. Gandalf rides on eagles in two different parts of the story. First in the book about bilbo and later in the movie when rescuring frodo and sam. So yeah that would be cool, also I don't know where to ask this.

Is this mod only based on the movie and not the book. Also is it supposed to just take place in the time of the ring wars. Or far back too? Cuz I have seen you added smaug and he wasn't in the movie.
Personally I think it would be a cool idea to make kinda like a MEGA mod

Like where you can fight battles far back like in the prolouge of the movie. The battle against sauron and isildur and all that. Have lots of different factions with their own heroes. Not only by race like humans elves mordor...cuz there are already two different factions that kinda share the same race. Isengard and mordor. Divide the human factions into Rohan and gondor like in the first game. Add the evil men, and divide the elves into yeah the different elf factions. I'm not a expert on the movies or the book, but when I tried this mod out I thought...wow this is just like the movies how can someone improve this. Why not add stuff from the books and make the mod bigger and more fun to play. Don't follow the movies! Follow JRR Tolkien. And add lots of new factions that are not made up!

Also I have another awesome suggestion that I saw some other mod have. Improve the camera angles so you can zoom out alot and see the camera from the unit view. Add sky panoramas, that would make it so much cooler to watch battles and explore the map. This is the feature I was thinking about.

Camera System:
With RJ you can explore the mod and Middle-Earth in new ways. Based on a system from Morgoth's Minas Tirith Map and the 4th Age, I've extended the camera systems to allow you to view the game in 4 different angles. On the maps, you will be granted 4 new powers - General View, Commander View, Unit View, & Ground View. Click on the power to adjust the angle of the camera to what you desire. Skies have been added to the different maps to enhance the feeling of being immersed into Middle-Earth. The maps that have the system:

All RJ maps; the buildplot map; Moria, Lothlorien, & Amon Hen in the Campaign; Anfalas; Evendim; Grey Mountains; Hardlindon; Weathertop; Black Gate; Bucklandl Dagorland; Dol Guldur; Ettenmoors; Grey Havens; Harad; Helms Deep; Minas Morgul; Minas Tirith; Mount Doom; Rhun; The Shire

Would take a long time to make all those factions.. and RJ is working on different Elf factions

@Floris: QUOTES are ment for posts that are way above your reply, meaning do NOT use them whem your replying to the post directly above yours! Who needs to read the post all over again when it's directly there? Just post the answer...

Now for my reply (and quote since I "use" it in my answer)

Give Gandalf a eagle to ride on, cuz he and the witch king are like rivals. So that would make perfect sense.
That's already planned in ToDo list...


Is this mod only based on the movie and not the book. Also is it supposed to just take place in the time of the ring wars. Or far back too? Cuz I have seen you added smaug and he wasn't in the movie. Personally I think it would be a cool idea to make kinda like a MEGA mod
Mega mods are fun, but 10x more time consuming. SEE is big enough as it is =P SEE is 90% a movie mod, and if needed we take things from the books...


Like where you can fight battles far back like in the prolouge of the movie. The battle against sauron and isildur and all that. Have lots of different factions with their own heroes. Not only by race like humans elves mordor...cuz there are already two different factions that kinda share the same race. Isengard and mordor.

See answer above + other mods allredy do that, like our "sister-mod": RJ (we share some items like models and structures). I do not want SEE to be an RJ clone...


Also I have another awesome suggestion that I saw some other mod have. Improve the camera angles so you can zoom out alot and see the camera from the unit view. Add sky panoramas, that would make it so much cooler to watch battles and explore the map. This is the feature I was thinking about.
Lol, you obviously havn't read that much about SEE or less played it? We HAVE that camera system and many of the skies are made by me in Photoshop for use in both RJ and SEE mod =pBrowse the SEE Development forums and you'll see an awesome thread with loads of screens...


That would be awesome, by the way great mod Nazgul and I love sweden ABBA rules lol...>_>
Lol, ABBA's been dead for like 20 years, but yeah, they used to rock pretty good and I guess they still do

[Zarnik]

You got that camera system where you can see the landscape from the ground. I never knew that, I guess I'l have to play a bit more with the mod

[Nazgûl]

By browsing to page 2 in these forums, you would have seen THIS!

[SovietSoldier]

um,how about rohirrim can trample?when i order my rohirrim to trample some orcs or uruks,they dont do that.

[Nazgûl]

It's been fixed in 4.6

[SovietSoldier]

good.I just wanted them to trample some orcs once,but nothing ever came.

[GilGalad]

Well... i'm sure it was already sad (including by me a long time ago), but i think boromir and faramir should have and armor upgrade, because Faramir for example is neither a good swordman/knight nor a good archer so an armor boost would be usefull for mid-early game, since he doesnt fit well in the attack he would be a good last defence. And Boromir dont have powers that fits his reputation before he died... he was one of the best commander/fighters of Gondor... an armor bonus would be one of the things that would save his skin in the middle of an attack. So please reconsider these... i would say about Merry and Pippin although they are already in the ToDo list. i have nothing more to say *goes watch the movies again and again trying to tink if something misses to the mod*
#after watching the movies think ( the mod is already perfect nothing misses )# Good night to everybody, or good evening or good morning depending on your country

[Aragorn King Elessar]

I also agree with the fact that Borimer and farimer should have the armor upgrade, possibly even add the coronation Aragorn once he reaches lvl 10 , It looks so cool

and on a second note , what about adding the arrow volley thing that the rangers have to the summoned rangers

[Garrison Nomad]

because you could spam it and it would be extremely unbalanced. =P

[Racoon]

*Merged into this topic from single topic* /Naz

I just downloaded this mod today, and i might be wrong on this- i played as men of the west, got gandalf and got him to lvl 10. But he never turns white- its always gandalf the grey. Is this a bug? Cause its a lil anoying with him as grey whole game.

[Nazgûl]

Gandalf becomes Gandalf the White in the same way he does in the movies...

[Jeth Calark]

so basically you have to kill him off first? but his strength and damage and other stats stay the same, right?

[Racoon]

Oh i thought he should die first- but wasnt sure. Wow this mod is rlly true to the movies. I dled it today and am loving it. Ty for clarifying that Nazgul

[Nazgûl]

If I remeber it correctly, his powers increase a lot when he's The White, but I can't really recall exactly atm. It's been a while

[Jonasking]

Gandalf should have some kind of power like the Witch-Kings "With-Kings hour",you know the scene when they talking to Saruman(Extended Edition) when he breaks Sarumans staff like nothing...
