    Default Favourite previewed unit so far?

    We've been treated to a lot of great previews so far, all with some excellent units. Which of the previewed units is your favourite? and why?

    Mine is the Nazgul and the Black Numenoreans. The design is superb, and they just look bad a$$. The black clothes, darker armour and concealed faces are perfect. I'm hoping that since they will possibly be rare, that they are quite powerful. I can just imagine watching these guys cutting their way through the ranks of their enemies .

    My favorite was one of the Elven units "somethings wrong with the pictures so I can't show which one I'm talking about" but the detail in the shields was so amazing and you could see the detail work on the spears as well just simply amazing work...

    clearly, the Mumakil--it's like they were taken straight from the movies and planted into M2TW. And they're so freakin' big! Can't wait to run over the cavalry of Rohan with them.

    My favorite units are the orcs. Because their faces and armor are made with great attention to detail. But all of these units are greatly made, gondorian armors, elven armors and shields! The dale troops with two swords, mumakil etc.

    Muhad Skirmishers, the Mumakil, the trolls, and Nazguls and Numenoreans. The Mumakil, like hitokiri said, they look like they were taken directly from the movie, and I love the look of the Muhad Skirmishers, and I don't think I need to explain why I like the others, everybody loves Nazguls

    The Serpent Guard... and all the orcish units in second place (but very, very close)

    The High Elves is my favorite faction, but I have to say Fountain Guards.
    I just love their overall design, particularly the helmets.

    The dwarves, the gondorian soldiers (archers, spearmen, swordsmen) also the higher ranked dale units and all orks of course. But anyway In my opinion all units are awesome, no other Mod offers such a high quality of modding ...just awesome.

    I like al the Units previewed so far,
    But my favorite are the Uruks.
    I like infantry especially heavy infantry and these guys look like there is (almost) no one who can take them out.

    Especially the Berserkers! Even though the Dwarves are my favorite faction so far(that may change with playing it) I LOVE the way the Uruks were done. They look amazing, I don't want to fight against them, I can see why Gimli was warning theoden of the Uruk-ai. (Sorry Mith) I also like the detail on all the Dwarven units as well as the Nazgul(of course). All the Rhun Units rank up there for me as well. I could go on but basically there isn't a faction that I don't like.

    Gotta be Mumakil for me, as already stated they look nigh perfect from the movies which is great.

    Analysis should not be diverted by reflections upon the zeal with which the victors at the end of the Second World War punished the defeated for war crimes. The victors were animated by the ideals of the Atlantic Charter and of the United Nations. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was about to peep over the eastern horizon. But first, they wanted a little hanging.

    It's not the best unit but it is my favorite, Bardian Archers.
    Dragonslayers and black Numenoreans are really badass too.
    For overall preview I think Harad is the best.

    Very, very hard decision. I think my favorite unit are the Nazgul and the Black Numenoreans. But the Fountain Guards are great too, as like the Dragonslayers (I love black ).

    For some reason I like the low tear units too, for example the Dwarf and the Uruk Halbeldiers. Oh and the Gondor Militia looks great too!
