A Request/General Question

[graniteknight]

Would you guys ever consider putting in a fully functioning Arnor faction? so that maybe as a subplot dealy you could have arnor reform just as a general idea... also what about somehow making Gondor able to reestablish Kings?(without Aragorn)


I know this is a suggestion and it should go in that thread but I wanted this to get special attention

I doubt it saddly, I feel that the mod is staying the way it is with only minor changes ( after the rework of eriador of-course ) so no, I highly doubt they will add new lands or factions.

Also, do not worry if vetrean flamking starts. Its all normal.

Russian Gondor - I hope you are being sarcastic

The re-work of Eriador will allow you to reform Arnor as a faction

Sounds cool, but will they eventually get actual 'armored' units, rather than furs and leathers and the overall militia look? Just read the preview thread, and it sounds like they're doing just that, so cool.

Anyway, I always wanted to reform Arnor, and reunite the Kingdoms. As Gondor, of course.

In my current campaign Gondor is the only "Human faction". Well, not necessarily... I let Rohan keep Isengard after they took it, and Eriador keep Bree. For some reason, I thought to keep these factions "alive" with just their capitals, like I did with the Dwarves and High Elves. Both were reduced to vassals with their capitals at Mithlond and Erebor, respectively... And I'm working on "vassalizing" Rohan and Eriador.

It's as close as a united Human race as I could get. Too bad the Silvan Elves do nothing against the OotMM, and all the while I defend them constantly from Rhun... and Mordor... And Harad.

Yes, according to the current plan. Seriously, just look at the first post of the new Eriador preview.

Meh, who knows.... and I was not being sarcastic.

[Mr. Tornado]

In soviet Gondor... horse ride YOU.

[graniteknight]

I have not, thanks for the link..
the Arnor units proposed dont seem as flashy as Gondor's though

Arnor and Gondor are different.

Plus, you are reforming a faction that lost its former glory. They would not have many 'flashy' units. Maybe later in game.

Im sure there will be more units added to the final release, be patient

I hate to ask but....what's Arnor?

tut tut, go and use www.google.........

Chill Gondor I'm sure he ment no offence, after all that's a joke that goes way back to.............heck I don't even know when it first started........heck I don't know what the jokes about come to think of it.

Just learn from us Americans: Don't get angry at someone for making fun of you, just have them declared a terrorist and hire some none milatary guy to water board them so that if they're caught they can't get cort martialed and you can't be blamed. It works every time.

In Soviet Gondor, moderator hounds Russia.

It's good we have veterans like you with almost weeks of experience to let us know how things work around here.

Don't blame us Americans, the "In Soviet Russia" jokes came from... the Soviet Union.

Russian reversal
Russian reversal or "In Soviet Russia" is a type of joke originated by [Yakov] Smirnoff, and is an example of antimetabole. The general form of the "In Soviet Russia" joke is that the subject and objects of a statement are reversed, and "In (Soviet) Russia", or something equivalent, is added. For example:
In America, you can always find a party. In Soviet Russia, the party always find you. In America, you drive the car. In Soviet Russia, the car drives you. All of Smirnoff's original "In Soviet Russia" jokes made use of formulaic wordplay that carried Orwellian undertones. For example, two well known jokes of this type run "In America, you listen to man on radio. In Soviet Russia, man on radio listen to you!", and "In America, you watch television. In Soviet Russia, television watches you!" The joke alludes to video screens that both reproduce images and monitor the citizenry, as in Nineteen Eighty-Four.
At the peak of Smirnoff's celebrity in the mid-1980s, he did not say "Soviet Russia" - he said simply "Russia", as the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic had existed since 1917, still existed, and showed no signs of imminent collapse. Smirnoff added the Soviet qualifier after the fall of the USSR, long after his fame had faded, presumably to specify that he was referring to the communist regime and not the present state.
The joke form has become a staple of Smirnoff's humor, and is widely referenced in television parodies and references as well as many online communities including Uncyclopedia. The widespread reference to the jokes has led some linguists to consider the phrases to be snowclones.[4]

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
In Soviet Russia,
Poem write you.

It's just a joke Russian Gondor, no need to take offense.

More on topic, look in the sub-mod sectoin for this mod

The Ruins of Arnor

We hope to set up a custom campagin set in the era after the collapse of arnor and just as arthedain cardolan and rhuduar started infighting, as my signature indicates.

[graniteknight]

thats all well and good... but is there anything that makes them one cohesive good faction with good/amazing units?

[TheArtfulDodger]

The eariador update is probably what your looking for then, it features the abilty to create " a re-united kingdom" It will be a solid arnor faction and it is being developed by KK so something brilliant should come out of it, if not all of it being brilliant.
Either that or create an Arnor faction yourself.

(this isnt a shot at you, it is a real suggestion.)

No we don't flame 'newcomers' easily , Mr. Graniteknight

But for Russian Gondor I make an exception. With all his spamming I 'm longing for the iron curtain again...
