Restoring Arnor

[scarybandit]

Why did they decide to make it impossible unless you have aragorn? Won't his son have the same royal blood?

Because according to the Lore, Aragorn's son was actually retarded and lame, and no one would start up a new kingdom on that basis.

[smoesville]

Could a "Royal Bloodline" trait be used? In SS there are traits passed from father to son, so could that be used instead of just Aragorn?

Id like to examine that lore. I*ve seen a few pixels in my day

I don't know. That would require a proper family tree for Eriador. I don't see Arnor reemerging under the rule of the current heir. (forgot his name)
Once the lore mod is fully released, you could set it that the character has to be of Dunedain blood.

[Legio]

Current heir is Gandalf iirc.

[Seleukos_I.]

Nah, it was just a random general.
Edit: His name is Araphor.

[FOR GONDOR]

hmm i don't think they should change, at least mine didn't, they still pwn if stacked, (put gandalf and heir and 3-4 more, see the carnage in enemy ranks )

[FOR GONDOR]

hhahaha what i eman is, in the custom battles, you see that the generals bodygaurd are units that are the same as knights of arnor, but stronger, so im thinking that in the campaign seeing as you have new faction (arnor) and when you create arnor that they should become that unit

You're right actually. Arnor keeps the Dunedain bodyguards, as opposed to their Arnorian counterparts. It's most likely a result of the script playing up.

[Dava2710]

Ok, so there is this Lord who's a faction heir (next round he will become a faction leader for obvious reasons) and even though he will not enjoy it for very long I have to wonder, is it meant to be like this?
Look at his companions/bodyguards
he has 250 goblin infantry - the unit I regularly destroy with less then 15 horses

so my question is: Is it a bug or is it intentional?

sometimes even the generals revert back to there eriador counterparts

[AnthoniusII]

Is there a way to change my ex Eriador generals to Arnor ones now i have Arnor as state?
I mean to opticaly (give arnorian armors) transform them.
It looks strange to have Arnorian soldiers with Eriador generals the same time that the new luxury armors should be available to generals 1st...
Simple logic.

....Eldarion? retarded and lame? explain then why Aragorn gave up his life in F.A 120, after his son came of age to rule? there's no way he would have done that for a retarded cripple.

The same problem I'm having. In the new Kingdom of Arnor I'm having to use Dúneain bodyguards and it feels, oh so slighlty, off. It's most probably related to the script.

[sirfiggin]

have you tried retraining them?

[Deedlit]

If you check ths script in the campaign_script file, you will see that you need some more settlements:

Hobbiton, Michel Delving, Lognbottom, Bree, Staddle, Barrow-Downs, Amon Sûl. Annùminas, Fornost, Hoarwell, Tharbad, Coldfells.

And you need Aragorn alive!

But you own most of these settlements anyway...
Oh and the order you complete the requirements doesnt mather. I startet with the alliance with Gondor.

My Aragorn died early on! ! anyway to resurrect him without restarting the game?

[Seleukos_I.]

No. There's nothing you can do.
