The Endless Possibilities of Greek Flame Throwers.

Saruman's Staff shooting Fire Blasts?

Fire Drakes?

Anyone?

You don't say anything new. We could make good dragons or wizards. But we don't plane to include them in first release. We add them a bit later

I'm glad, it's too irresistible to ignore.

[The Count(er)]

yeah but that's why we've created the suggestions thread

[SuperStick]

awww I was looking foword to using dragons

[Elric von Rabenfels]

A LotR Mod without -playable- wizards would be like fish without water.
Just my humple opinion, though.

[The Count(er)]

except in the books they never really did any fighting in most wars and in the ones they did they were never fling fireballs around so it just doesn't fit

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I think Dragons are being left out because the animations would look crap.

As for fire balls, I think magic should be left out of this mod altogether. As far as I know anyway, a wizards really powers were power of will and not the power to shoot flaming balls across the battlefield like some sort of half man, half fighting robot. Not to mention magic would go crap with the Total War style

[Zarnik]

Yeah gandalf never used his magic in a fight, only when he fought other wizards or divine beings. Or balrogs...

[Murfios]

Yeah gandalf never used his magic in a fight, only when he fought other wizards or divine beings. Or balrogs...

Im sure he used his magic often. Like the books describe, he used a spell to scare away the orcs from Minas Tirith. He also used a spell to turn orcs into stone when he was helping Bilbo in a fight...

[Mithrandir]

He also used a spell to turn orcs into stone when he was helping Bilbo in a fight...

I don't remember that, although he did use magic to kill a bunch of MM orcs before they got dragged into Goblin-Town.

If I recall, it would be impossible to make a lone magician unit, they would have to band them into groups.
And I hope you'll agree that unit of sixty fire breathing Sarumans would be somewhat out of place.

[Krechet(SiCh)]

Battle Wizards or Dragons look normal. If some of you guys don't think so - it's only because he don't see crrectly made models. And i'd see them. Yeoman made battle wizards for his mod and find we way to make dragons correctly

[The Count(er)]

yeah they can be made correctly although something like a dragon would be very difficult saying the model would probably need to be made from scratch and new animations would need to be created too but wizards using magic just doesn't fit with the mod

[Zarnik]

What? There are not so many dragons in middle earth anyway. If any at all during the war of the ring.

[Krechet(SiCh)]

Yeah. But we planned to make some NAzguls on fellbeasts )

[Zarnik]

Really I thought u said that they would be riding:hmmm:
Anyway on the battlefield nazguls on fellbeasts would pwn! The nazguls only used their horses when they hunted frodo and the ring. In battle they are flying!!

[The Big Red 1]

Well you'll have to wait for a few patches.

[Roger the Shrubber]

I don't see why you would include dragons they would be too hard to make and turn out too unrealistic.
