dark shadows is about the whole dynamic view of BFME2 it will bring new units in and will rebalance it out for definite.
This is my first mod so i am pleased of what i have done
what the first betas will include

- new balrog (Lungorthin) for goblins Done

- new dragon lair structure for goblins (recruits drakes) In Process

- new goblin spearmen unit (doing my {IP}Notorious In Process

- arnor soldiers and archers and spearmen for gondor Done (spearmen not done yet)

- New Hero for Gondor - Frodo Done
- New Hero for Elves - Sam Done


the reason why the balrog is on Goblins is because they dont have many heroes and mordor
have quite alot

here is the first glimpse of arnor fighters for gondor with the valiant frodo


new balrog hero the flame of udun morgoths servant



samwise gamgee of the shire added to elves


arnor replacing gondor soldiers

this is exactly how fairly new modders should act, doing projects that arent impossible from their limit and let them practice, cant wait to see what else you do when you learn some more

[lycan]

thank you fellow IP member, the only faction changing im doing is renaming goblins to wild and that wont be for a long time.

but i think this is a good example of what new coders should do,
