Yea it's hilarious, because he says Elrond brings word (if I remember correctly) or something along those lines, but he's a Silvan elf. I lawled pretty hard about that whole scene.
Yeah, it was phony/fake/wrong in the movie and the Elves shouldn't have been at Helm's Deep, but I think PJ did that to show the audience the fighting capabilities of the Elves and to show 'team spirit', that is all the good guys finally getting together.
Elrond and Galadriel did communicate somewhat with one another through some sort of mental telepathy/magic, and that is slightly at hinted at in the books and Tolkien's other writings, so Elrond could have asked Galadirel to send aid to Helm's Deep.

It was a hilarious moment in the movies...
What do you mean they were "weak". They fought very well in the movie!!! Just because Haldir got whacked in the head and died doesn't mean they didn't do a good job of killing orcs, that's what happens in those type of bloody and fatal affairs. The Uruk-hai Berserkers were another of PJ's additions made under artistic creativity, and we all know they weren't in the books. They were big and crazy SOB's though.

^ no, he said that he brings word from Elrond of rivendel
"you are soldiers of Gondor, no matter what comes through that gate you will stand your ground!"
Wanted to say thank you for the great mod, Agostinos. It's a fabulous addition and I'm very happy it's working in tandem with the RC mod. Kudos.
+Rep!
Hm...just a slight question. I put all the files in their folders, and everything is working fine, except i cant recruit black numerions(sp? kinda tired/lazy) on the campaign map. I have used them in custom battles but a Mordor tier 5 barracks in Barad Dur cannot recruit them. Anyone know why?
great mod one question though any chance of fixing wargs so they dont look like camels from a distance sorry if this has already been asked or done
What program do I need to unpack this?
He said he brings word from Elrond and it's not wierd because Elrond certainly had connections to Lórien unlike elves of Mirkwood and Lindon since his wife was daughter of Celeborn and Galadriel, he was related to Galadriel and his children (at least Arwen) visited in there quite often.
Elves of Lórien didn't come to Helm's Deep in books.
I did actually quite like the elves turning up at Helm's Deep- showed they still actually gave two figs to the general non-LotR-reading public.
Still, I asked for this in a different thread, and someone said to come here. A personal thing, but can you make the Fountain Court guys have a shield and long spear (and do shield wall instead of spear wall) a la Citadel guard? Being a FATW player I've been somewhat used to them being able to run around a bit.
You could have it as an optional bit- though it's not hard to not copy and paste the files in if you don't want it!
