Well... I've realized that this year it's impossible for me to mod during the classes so I've taken advantage of those holidays to make some new stuff for the mod.
Some months ago I made a topic talking about the interior buildings (here). It allows the player to build inside a building and to move their troops inside of it. Also, you can put your units on the walls and shoot your enemies from there. In addition, Dwarves can't build external buildings anywhere. They can build two big fortresses (just like minifactions, Khazad-Dum and Nogrod) outside the main fortress but only near the cliff or the mountains. (That's perfect for the dwarves, whose buildings were inside mountains). However, I've been working in some units too, like a huge battering ram or a moveable earth-hammer. Ah, I forgot to say that this huge mountain that you can see in the screenshots is for skirmish, just like a base in bfme 1.
This is the fortress from the outside. I posted this screenshot in the old topic.

That's what you've got at the beggining of any skirmish game. Your king sitting (which you can call for some money to fight) and some uncontrollable guards walking. To call soldiers, you have to make an unit called "Messenger" that spawns an army (only once) at the nearest edge of the map.

You can change the angle of the camera whenever you want.

That's the battering ram. The model of the dwarves on it will be changed. That face is based on the masks of the dwarves. Tolkien said that dwarves, in the battles, used masks to frighten their enemies.

Another perspective of the mountain.

The earth hammer. It makes a little earthquake around it. This texture will be changed soon.

Workers are the ones who build the external buildings. They also can fight, but they're very bad.
For those who don't know what I'm talking about (the mod has been in achieved modifications for some months or years so new users won't know anything about it xD), the Four Ages is a mod for BFME 2 that recreates the Silmarillion, the book which talks about what happened in Middle Earth thousands of years ago before the war of the ring. So far, I've finished the Angband faction and I'm working with the second faction, the dwarves. You can download a beta(of Angband), watch a Trailer (made by Dreamer) and some screenshots in the webpage of my signature (click on the image).
