    Default Lórien faction

    I think there should be a lorien faction in the game, as the woodland realm and lorien had completely no contact and therefore should be separate factions. Two submods have been made, but both are dead.
    I have two questions:
    1. Will a Lorien faction be included in the main mod?
    2. Does anyone know how to add the faction? I would be willing to help with scripting, but I don't know which files to modify and have no clue about texturing.

    If other people would like to help, this should be their roster.

    Low-tier
    Lorien sentinels - light archers, good at ambushing (sentinels of woodland realm)
    Lorien warriors - light infantry, good at ambushing (forest wardens)

    Mid-tier
    Galadhrim guards - heavy spearmen (silvan heavy spearmen)
    Galadhrim archers - heavy archers (silvan heavy archers)
    Galadhrim swordsmen - heavy infantry (silvan swordsmen)

    High-tier
    Galadhrim sentinels - elite unit, heavy archers that are good at melee, (sindar archers, slightly lowered stats)

    Galadhrim bodyguard - bodyguard unit, heavy infantry with bows and swords (sindar archers)
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    The only work that should be done on the units is retexturing, we don't need permission since the maker has given permission to everyone.

    Perhaps we could use the faction symbol of DaC, we could ask this.

    Their faction leader should be Lord Celeborn (d'oh), and Haldir should be a great general that will easily be adopted.

    Is anyone willing to help?

    I'd suggest you to try DAC.

    DAC has Lorien as a faction, but the diversity is limited as they are still in their mid-stage, but nevertheless will suffice your descripction

    Why don't you try out the beta? It's pretty good

    I tried it out and it was okay I guess.When playing as Lorien expect to be attacked bigtime by OotMM.Also yes it would be a good idea to have Lorien in the mod.And yes the other two submods are dead and hopeless even if you download them.

    Now I have just one question left:

    Will it eventually be included in the main mod?

    From what I heard right after the release the elven roster was too small
    to have another elven faction, but maybe in a later release it will be included.
    Same with the dunlendings I think.

    But with the war they could unite (not only being allied), what is impossible ingame if they are at first 2 differents factions.

    The current Divide and Conquer beta has been released. Lothlorien is implimented. Faction symbols for all the expanded factions have been rendered. Best of luck el Cid.

    I love how people are saying/thinking "but its a beta!" ....

    We have worked extremely hard on this folks. Its a beta by our standards, but by most others its a full fledged release. I kid ye not. Lothlorien is implemented and we are even now working on expanding their roster heavily. Beta 3.75 they are fun.... two extremely powerful enemies right next door...

    In Beta 4 they will be even more enjoyable with their unique roster.

    I think you should remove the "beta" from the thread title. When people see the word beta they are like "woaaaaah, beta! This must have lots of bugs and CTDS. No way ye see me dwld this!!1!!1"
