Thanks mate

... well, a prime rule with mods is to NEVER set official dates haha, and we are all experienced enough to not have false impression of the effort required; yet it may be said that the team push for a beta release till summer. No promises naturally, but considering our progress and the skilled lads who put their heart into DCI:LA makes it seem possible

[Saitouakira]

I do have a question. In the submod currently out named secound age they had to get rid of family i dont rember reasoning off top my head but will youres have them?

[Ngugi]

Assuming you mean that factions in SATW use a teutonic family tree, which = no [visible] family but only adoptions?
Don't know if all in that mod do so, so can't quite compair, but some of ours will have it;
Mordor and OotMM as in vanilla TATW, but also Rhûn Confereracy and Kingdom of Lórien.

Numenorean Kingdoms, Kingdom of Lindon and Eryn Galen in the Alliance have normal families, as do the neutral Rhovanion, Kingdom of Khazad-dûm and the ambigious Men of the Mountain.
Of the Followers of Sauron-factions Harad, Wildmen of Enedwaith and Hillmen of the North also have normal trees.

So much I wish we could show you that been created lately but either it is simply nothing to see but something to experience or it is things to wait till proper previews hehe.

But as a sum up of some things we've been up to, because it's neat to mention;

- A great effort has been spent on the mechanisc of how and when and why Men of the Mountain [MotM] become Oathbreakers or stay Loyal to Isildur and his folk; depending on if the player is MotM, Numenorean Kingdoms, Mordor or other evil folk or other good/neutral faction. Incredible how demanding a task, but we are really satisfied with our concluded concepts and Withwnar is turning that reality with his script magic currently.
- All finished rosters got a complete unit stat overhaul, which seems to work out good and in our test battles really call new challenges and opportunities
- Settlements and regions names updated, new map regions added, settlements tweaked, ownerships changed in some cases, map terrains edited (as no swamp directly in fornt of the Black gate) etc.
- Withwnar made a humongous update of the map what coding concern, which will not be seen by players but is a modders delight
- New portraits for lots of characters, by Araval
- Delicious new units for Rhûn and HotN*, by Earl of Memory, and for Eryn Galen [Mirkwood], by Curufin.

An up to date image of the DCI: Last Alliance map

For the new viewers, differences towards the vanilla map are found in an additional west Grey Mountain province [Gundabad], the Silvan settlement Edhellond north of Dol Amroth (here Dol Belegaer), one more Mordor settlement, the addition of West Rhudaur northeast of Amon Sûl, a new province southwest of Dol Guldur and Baraz-dûm in the souther Ered Luin. Cair Andros is now just a fort.
Further there are a bunch of redrawn province boarders, and a great amount of settlement and province names have been replaced.


Notes: Red dots are forts.

Númenórean Kingdoms - Black
Kingdom of Lindon - Blue
Eryn Galen - Green
Lothlórien - Yellow-green
Kingdom of Khazad-dûm - Grey

Hillmen of the North - Yellow

Looking good guys, keep up the great work! I've gotta say this is one of my most anticipated projects on TWC and you keep pumping out great stuff, can't wait to play.

[Arachir Galudirithon]

Very nice looking map.
What is the point of learning Sindarin if you can't use it every once in a while...
Eryn Dolen should be Eryn Dholen as 'hidden' is describing the forest, likewise Eryn Gond should be Eryn'ond as 'Rock' is describing the forest so it is mutated.

Thanks, credits goes to Withwnar for the modding
Dunno, as I can it not, but this seems a good outlet ^^ Thanks for the info
Should it actually bew written Eryn'ond, can't recall I've ever seen a name with an ' though that may well be my memory. Is Erynond proper then?

[Withwnar]

...differences towards the vanilla map are ...

...and Cair Andros is now just a fort.
