-- Progress --

[lord0thief]

I really want to see the captain models for Rohan =D

[Kiljaden]

Yes, I can't wait to see more progress either - but hey, we'll see it when it's ready I suppose

On the hobbit nonsense, I want to see some hobbit archers as well! If you're going to be able to have a faction occupy the shire, there's no reason in hell that you shouldn't be able to AT LEAST recruit hobbit archer mercenaries (hobbit pony archers? o.O not really a bad idea if you think about it )

Plus, what's more important, book-realism or fun gameplay?

No matter what happens though I know this will be a great mod, kudos, +reps, candy, and suchlike to mod dev team~!

I want hobbit pony archers, that'd be great

[Roger the Shrubber]

Here we go again with the hobbits. lol.
+Will Rohan have their horse patterns and such on their flags and shields?

[Krechet(SiCh)]

HHh. The plan hobbit foot-archers and sherifs. Other in second realese if team won't be opposite )

[The Count(er)]

I still opposed to even one hobbit unit

[Krechet(SiCh)]

And I still don't understand why.
1.Models and animation is our job
2.Hobbit Archers and hobbit sherifs are curent units what were in books.

[The Count(er)]

And I still don't understand why.

I've explained why several times obviously no one read it anyways since me not wanting hobbits won't stop them from being included I'll be perfectly happy with removing them myself once the mod is released

[Surgeon]

Hobbits should use rocket launchers that shoot Gandalf's fireworks.

Ace mod, by the way.

[Krechet(SiCh)]

2 Count(er): we read it. But it's not quite sereous reason tio exclude them

[Hieronymus]

I do think hobbits should be involved in this game, being Hobbit Archers, I don't think a melee unit of Sherrifs would do much good, seeing they are more policemen then soldiers.

[Krechet(SiCh)]

Yes. But for ballanse better have two units: melee and range. Tspecially if hobbits will be rebels. If we give them to ERiador - we'll don't have to make secondd unit

[ccllnply]

The Shire has to be part of Eriador. And I'm not giving you a choice here. They HAVE to be a settlement of Eriador. Not only was the Shire part of Eriador, but if its a rebel settlement the Elves conquer it and kill all the Hobbit every game which is completly against the lore

Plus, what's more important, book-realism or fun gameplay?

Its not really about which is more important. Its about trying to get a balance. On one hand, no one wants to go against the lore. Maybe its just me but I don't want to see "Crazy Monkey Nipple Twisters". On the other hand, no one wants this mod to be dull. Its about finding the middle ground. Where Gameplay meets Realism

I still opposed to even one hobbit unit

I really don't understand this thing you have against Hobbits. The Hobbits did defend themselves. They even fought back a Goblin invasion and they defeated the Orcs from Isengard

[Roger the Shrubber]

"Crazy Monkey Nipple Twisters"? Hmmm, interesting...:hmmm:

[Krechet(SiCh)]

Its about finding the middle ground. Where Gameplay meets Realism

Yeah. That is what we are trying to make

[Kiljaden]

And both gameplay and realism merit hobbit archer units.

/win

note: No one is suggesting Hobbits should be this amazing Tier 4 heavy armored longbow unit. Make them the peasant archer equivalent for all I care, just put them in there!

[Mithrandir]

Well spoken, Kiljaden!
We want hobbits!

[Wobble44]

Hobbit burglers would be good, for Eriador spies...
as for the actual unit... I think it would have to be recruitable only in the shire.. something like Thain Cavelry, but not much more

[Krechet(SiCh)]

Shir and Bree are more "realistic"

[The Count(er)]

2 Count(er): we read it. But it's not quite sereous reason tio exclude them

I thought it was a good reason and no one ever said a good reason why I was wrong but I'm done arguing against it
