The fellowship is coming in a custom campaign.

yep the fellowship will be a new seperate campaign where you first have to get all bodies and than reach several goals to destroy the one ring in the very end...

But that brings variation into gameplay...
you have to decide which way you reach victory

I think it would be even more variating to have a core set of units all across your empire and then local AOR units to spice up your roster, and admit that it sounds logical: in the north Elves and Dwarves support your Gondorian forces, in the Shire you can call upon detachments of Hobbit archers and in the south, well you'll have none cause as a "good" faction you sure as hell can't call upon evil allies. Just thinking out loud here

Perhaps it is an idea for a submod.

Hermes Trismegistos · Mar 28, 2010

To some degree they did that in LOTR Total War, didn't they? I like the idea to some degree, but if you overdo it you have the risk of ending up with every faction effectively having the same roster - or rather having just two faction rosters, good and evil.

gaius valerius · Mar 28, 2010

Well of course you'd never be able to recruit one and anothers best core units. Although to an extend, wouldn't it be a cool feature if you could recall upon elite units from other factions, like scripted, say that from time to time you'd get an event saying that for example 3 Eldar Archers offer your services to you? Dunnoh. Would be cool to actually have humans and elves fighting alongside each other once in a while :tongue:

FOR GONDOR · Mar 28, 2010

so if you ally with mordor and you lets say the elves, and it says "a group of uruks would like to fight for you" wouldnt it be strange cuz didnt souron torture elves to create uruks and orcs hmmmm

FOR GONDOR · Mar 28, 2010

hmm i just thought of somthing..... wouldnt these make eirodior/arnor THE strongest faction here, and i still dont understand the recruiting part, will somone please explain to me

HolyDevil · Mar 28, 2010

i doubt it will become the strongest faction... i don't know the exact process of turning eriador into arnor, but i heard its VERY VERY hard...

not to mention eriador now start with a lot less regions, and, altough their units can fight, they are not the best soldiers, and even if u turn to arnor, u still need a good economy, since im sure their units are nothing but cheap...

consider arnor somewhat of a north-gondor... closest match u can find

This is looking nice.

Muffer Nl · Mar 29, 2010

You know I also left some time ago, due to lack of time.

STELLover · Mar 29, 2010

Very very good units! Brings the spice out of the Tolkien's legends :thumbsup2

Just one remark though, as it will be my criticism. A lot of Arnorian units have capes on their backs in which personally makes the units too "noblish" compared to other units in Third Age

dannyalex · Mar 29, 2010

do you mean that i could play with the new eriador and arnor faction in the 1.4 version? or i must wait for the 1.5? :hmm:

King Kong thank you ,and your mates to make my dream come true!!!!!!!

ARNOR WILL RISE AGAIN!!!!!!

Concrete · Mar 29, 2010

It's all well and wonderful and beautiful and fantasitc, but I still find playing in the North West corner of the map somewhat boring.
Needs another Evil faction up there.
Which I'm sure will be dealt with in time.
Brilliant work TATW team!

Muffer Nl · Mar 29, 2010

Check it out. Do you have the units shown here available in your 1.4 campaign?

No.

yeah for sure...
if, i repeat if there will be integrated a new one, it would be an orc faction likt the ootmm (not the same of course but also not too different

)

Devils_Advocate · Mar 29, 2010

Does this sheer lunacy and immense insanity really come true I am off from the team fast as the wind, accompanied by my (so far) reworked OotMM!

Just to make sure nobody said something about a new faction, and i just wrote about the case if just to calm you

Louis Lux · Mar 29, 2010

He is showing that his post was not certain.

For me it could go either way.
