I'm starting a new topic for the updates from now on.
The General discussion will be more for discussion and announcements.

So to get the ball rolling I have the first official render from the Fiefdoms faction.
The newly remade Lossarnach Axemen.
I only just finished him after hours of work,but it paid off.




The Lossarnach Axemen is going to be the first taster for what's to come for Beta 0.4 and The Fiefdoms.
Fiefdoms will have a lot of variation to their designs and will have strong motifs.

I'll post some screens of him soon.

they look very cool

[Fishbone]

Nice, may I ask who got his face borrowed?

[Námo]

Hint: look at Rad's new avatar!

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Adam Baldwin is guest starring as Lossarnach Axeman.

Update time once again.

This work was done the day after the Lossarnach Axeman but I didn't get around to prepping the update and uploading.

Brace yourselves there's a few here.

First off is the Pinnath Gelin Warrior.


The first of the Fiefdom Buildings.
Fiefdom Barracks


The Fiefdom Guard House
This is the building from which the Elite Fiefdom units are built.


Tower Guard reskin.


Next I have a preview of the Withered Heath map I've been working on.
It's changed a bit since here but it will give you an idea of the layout.



Lastly is the final Fiefdom update.
I left this one last for a reason.

As you may be able to tell the Pinnath Gelin Banner on the Right has no logo.
Other than the White Tree the reason for this is because I'm holding a design competition for the Pinnath Gelin Banner.

The PG design will be used on the Banner Carriers,the Fiefdom Guardhouse banner and probably for some props down the track.

I'm opening this competition for 2 weeks closing on the 25th.

The guidelines for the design are:
Image should be 256 squared.
Should be in white and still feature the white tree above the logo (like Lossarnach's).
For some information on Pinnath Gelin check out Namo's lore topic on the matter here.

So show me what you've got.


Another update should be coming soon,possibly tonight.

I am no good when it comes to logos, but if there's some need for some unit concepts I'll give it a try, extra detailed unlike my other rivendell captain


An old image, but in similar style, I'll try make something new if you want.

[Lauri]

Hey, that's awesome Fishbone!

And Rad, you need to desatuRAD the banners I think..

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

I was playing around with Saturation on the banners the other day but for some reason the current look is the only one I like.
It's vivid,but it does seem to scream hey look at me",I'm a new faction".

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Update time and it's a good one.

For starters I have a couple screenshots to go with the last update.

Gondor updates


Trebuchet Reskin


Fiefdom Guardhouse


Next I have some more screenshots previewing the new leadership FX recently remade to be better than ever.
Goblins with level 2 version,also note the new Random models for the Goblins.


Mordor Orcs with level 3 leadership.


Rivendell Warriors with level 1 leadership.


Rivendell Warriors with level 3 leadership.


Next is a random shot of the Troll Hero in Carnage mode.
Shown simply because I like him


Next is the main feature of this update and it's the newly remade Sauron.

DIGI_Byte and I remade Sauron to the quality he deserves.
Model updated and remapped by DIGI,
Texture and model FX by yours truly.


Sauron chilling...


Sauron using Domination


I hope you guys like the new stuff,it's only the tip of the iceberg for the stuff I've been working on.
I'm currently putting the finishing touches on Rivendell including some rebalancing.
So look forward to a complete Rivendell in the next beta.

[Bashkuga]

one word..... awesome (what happened to the black shields of gondor btw?)

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

The screenshot shown above is the Heavy Armour version.
I'm currently uploading the first LW video to my new Radspakr youtube account.
Which will be home to future Lone Wolf clips.

[Bashkuga]

The screenshot shown above is the Heavy Armour version.

i know, but the black shields fit better to the heavy armor of gondor

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

Not really since they are wooden.
Once you see the shields in game you'll get why the metal versions are heavy armour.

Hmmm... About black vs metallic shields. A couple of years ago I bought some Lord of the Rings play along Armies of Middle Earth figures ( I collect figures ). And I noticed that the shield of the gondor soldiers were not black but metallic.

Here's the figures I am refering to, if anyone also have them

they aren't, if you watch ROTK, at the scene where faramir and his knights are riding out, you will notice a close up from a gondorian soldier from behind. There you can see that the shields are made from wood.

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

They use both,and it's not that big of a deal.

[Námo]

Sauron "chilling"?

[Radspakr Wolfbane]

I have update for you guys.
Fresh off the presses I have the new Dale Stables.




These new stables will be the first in a new set of Dale structure remakes.

Will the horses have a fitting animation?
