what about denethor?
nice list though.
Thats a great roster, but maybe we add "Gondorian light Cavalry" or something along those lines, i'm only thinking because in the third LOTR movie we see Faramir and the other Rangers charging out in a line of horsemen, or would that be Gondorian knights?
Will you be including anything not in the film? (e.g. Swan Knights, Pelargir soldiers, ext?). I thought the incorporation of non-movie things in the semi movie based-ness of Third Age was brilliant!
This is only a first base roster. So all this things are open.

Ugh... I want to play this! Since that isn't going to happen anytime soon... What about tiered units? I saw in another thread that in Third Age units could be upgraded. The Gondorians could go from mail to mail/plate to full plate(as seen in movies). Could this be done using retraining, like the roman legions in Rome 2. Do you plan to do this in the game, or is it too early to decide? I've been told that plate wasn't very common in the books, I think this would be a good way to add more to the game and also appease some of the people who like the visuals described in the books.
If I started out with the full plate armor Gondorian soldiers I would be a little disappointed that I didn't have to work up to them. Also, it could help balance the game in terms of when you can get really good troops.
Keep working... I'm too excited for a mod alpha.
I think this is a good idea and when it's possible for roman soldiers it should be possible dor our units, too. Right now we're modelling the full armored unit's first but we can add this way of upgrading later.

Hey guys, I've found something interesting for you to develop this mod, especially concerning the campagin map. I was checking out the Qin Expansion mod and here's what this Chinese modder did to change the appearance of the city, obviously it isn't all fully done, but here it is, perhaps a similar thing may be done for Gondor?
Is that a campaign map model?

that looks very similar to taro_M's models
It becames boring to see that kind of comment again and again. Keep definately in mind that Rome 2 modders use assets from M&B mods and other TW mods, obviously with permission.
If someone has to do the police, let the TWC staff do it.

I didn't realise you could import assets from that far back
sorry if my observation annoys you
No problem, sorry myself from being quite rude, it's just this kind of question is posted several times everyday on every Rome 2 mods threads I'm following, and it just makes mad in the long run.
Maybe every modders should make a clear statement in capital letters in the OP.

Like I posted here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...esearch-thread , we'll only use ressources with the correct permission!

The OP has been updated. There you can find a whole modeled unit now. We're working on several factions and units but these pictures show maybe not the final layout.
