Better banners

**{II}Sovereign** · May 08, 2009, 10:24 AM

As much as I love the work that you all did with them I still think there's some room for improvement...

for example the OOtm banner is far too similar to that of bandits (should be a spider or something of the likes)
So I drew some better banners ones that I feel give each faction I more unique look ex Isengard will now have a pike by their flag etc

I will post pic as soon as I find that cursed usb cord for my digital cam

ex:

just excuse the quality because I was @ class at the time I made these..

I think the banners are fine the way they are...

**Zavischa** · May 08, 2009, 12:37 PM

I agree. Although Rohan's banner is good

Isengard, OoTMM, Gondor, Eriador should be improved. Isengard - a white hand
OoTMM - a spider
Gondor - better white tree
Eriador - sth what is connected ummm... with Eriador

Hmm, Mordor could be imporved for sure. It looks a bit cartoony. The others are good though...

Dude...plz no spiders on OoTMM faction. I like the banner of Mordor from BFME. And Isengard just need the white hand on their banner.

We will be fixing so much in the next release...just wait. Tokus is editing his banners and icons. Btw, there will be no spiders

BTW you should have called the thread Alternative banners or Other banners, maybe even improved banners but not just plain better banners. That sounds...
You know...
(Can't remember the word

)
Better implies a fact while this is merely an oppinion.

WELL excuse me!

Didn't mean for you all to take it so personally just a minor add on that gives extra flavor I mean jeesh just adding a weapon on the side of a banner has to be such a big deal...? I don't think it would...

**krapyl** · May 08, 2009, 03:59 PM

I think they should use the exact same banners as they use in movies ^^,

I love the banners. Especially during the end of turn phase. Not too sure about the Eriador one though during that part. The combination of colours and the trees always makes me think of somewhere like Barbados. Don't know why.

Anyway, point noted Code Knight, looking forward to seeing the changes.

I also like the banners the way they are...
There are some i like better than others but all in all it could stay like this - but improvments are always welcome

**Moonflower** · May 09, 2009, 10:10 AM

from wat ive seen... the banners are too 'cartoon' looking. they dont seem realistic. their textures are too glossy (like they were painted on).

i would post screens if i knew how.

the silvan elf banner is a bit plain.

when the silvan faction is split into Mirkwood and Lorien, i would try to recreate the Galadhrim banner (as seen at helms deep in the movie, carried by the elves led by haldir) and use that as lorien's banner

this mod is a fantastic piece of art; us fan's just want to give our two cents to the dev's so we can contribute to making it even better!

Why do you need a digital cam? Just take a screenshot.
