The designs are nice I personally would just make the colors a bit more drab and maybe even worn out more for the lower tiers and a little bit for the higher ones, like the inherited their stuff since new stuff isn't easy to come by.
    Never worthless from you a'; thank you for contributing constructive reflections

    Wow, those units are awesome! I love the designs on the tunics - the Men of the Mountains are definitely a unique looking faction, not just in this submod, but in all of the others for Third Age as well, I'd say.

    I'm really excited to see what you guys do with Mordor.

    As usual, the units are awesome beyond words. Fantastic designs! None should underestimate men from the mountains now.

    Cant wait to see what changes you do to DCI´s Mordor. Since Uruks didnt exist back in the Second Age, will they have more human troops?

    No spoilers, but whether Orcs or Men or beasts, Sauron's personnel policy remains the same

    were there also dwarves that were allies of sauron in the second age, right? I remember some lines on the silmarillion that says that dwarves fought in the both sides of the armies..

    You're right:
    Of the Dwarves few fought upon either side; but the kindred of Durin of Moria fought against Sauron.
    - Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age
    We have accounts of Dwarves in the east fell to the Shadow:
    [The Northmen, in the Second Age] were brave and loyal folk, truehearted, haters of Morgoth and his servants; and at first had regarded the Dwarves askance, fearing that they were under the Shadow (as they said). (28)
    - HoME 12; Dwarves and Men


    28: For they had met some far to the East who were of evil mind. [This was a later pencilled note. On the previous page of the typescript my father wrote at the same time, without indication of its reference to the text but perhaps arising from the mention (p. 301) of the awakening of the eastern kindreds of the Dwarves: ‘Alas, it seems probable that (as Men did later) the Dwarves of the far eastern mansions (and some of the nearer ones?) came under the Shadow of Morgoth and turned to evil.’]
    - HoME 12; Dwarves and Men; Footnotes
    Also:
    [The goblins] did not hate dwarves especially, no more than they hated everybody and everything, and particularly the orderly and prosperous; in some parts wicked dwarves had even made alliances with them.
    - The Hobbit; Over Hill and Under Hill
    Even these would be exceptions, however:
    [Dwarves] are not evil by nature, and few ever served the Enemy of free will, whatever the tales of Men alleged.
    - Appendix F
    In DCI this is represented by the Orocarni, mercenaries in the northeast, usually only avilable to Dwarves but in case of Invasions also avilable to all Followers of Sauron-factions;
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

    That said, who knows what we end up doing? ^^
