    I think it was answered... I remember I read something like: The Hornburg will be quite easy to implement. However, Minas Tirith will probably not be in the first version although the team would like and will certainly add in in subsequent versions.

    Cheers!!!

    Sure, you COULD play any other mod. But The Crusades has so much more to offer!

    I've got a question.

    Have army lists/tech trees been released, and if not, will they be? Released?

    I have been researching on your mod & I think it's supercool & all. but I think that you guys got the Haradrim & the Easterlings mixed up. because I've read the book & watched all the movies. is it based on the movie or your own vision of LOTR?

    OK I'm going to be real mad at you! Have you read the FAQ? Apparently not. We're basing our mod on John Ronald Reuer Tolkien's (Is the last R reuel or Reuer?) work! (Of course). Why would we'we mixed up Harad and Easterlings? Harad are the ones that have Mumaks...
    You've watched the movies too much...

    In the movie, they even gave the characteristic Haradrim banner, black serpent upon scarlet, to the Easterlings.

    And it is Reuel.

    Is it going to have all the kingdoms? or just the ones seen on the big screen?

    Arakorn, try to be more hospitable in our new home.
    But yes, for whatever reason, PJ switched the Haradrim with the Easterlings in many regards. The easterlings were mostly barbaric and uncivilized, the Haradrim were a rich desert culture, robed in scarlet and bronze. WETA made the Easterlings in scarlet and bronze, and the Haradrim an uncivilized desert/tribal culture.

    Spartan, all major factions of Middle-earth will be represented ingame. The only real barriers that have arisen are the lack of different cultures available (for example, this is why we had to eliminate a Hobbit faction from the game).

    Why did you decide to start a new forum here?

    To get more publicity, Tom.
    Don't worry however, we'll still have our main forum at the SCC, where the dev. forum also is

    ok, thanks

    but, will their be elite units, like the Gondor Tower Guard & the Uruk-hai Berserkers?

    if it's been answered in the FAQ, you have every right to be mad at me, cause I usually dont read them.

    We will have elite units, but we are not releasing unit lists.

    ...But the fortnightly updates may reveal something to you.

    And if the unit is mentioned in the book, you can be certain that we will have it.

    Ok, more questions;

    1) I read The hobbit (more than 30 times ) and LOTR twice. So I know there aren't as many different "species" (hobbits, dwarves, elves, humans, orcs, dragons...) as RTW allows factions. Will you be expanding them in ways of dividing "species" into more factions? For example; will the elves have more than one faction? Like wood elves etc? Same for others...

    2) Will there be dragons?

    3) Do you have an estimate of the number of unit types or is it too early to tell?

    4) Will the rebels be orc units? That seems appropriate.

    Nah, I could come up with WAY too many questions... So I'll end here. For now.
