**W1Z21** · October 01, 2010, 12:57 PM

UPDATE!!!!!

i have recieved permission to make this compatible with FRoME 2.0!!

did you ever really feel satisfied with TATW's large battles? casue i sure didnt. i also didnt feel like the "uber" units were really uber. its supposed to be a hard game to play and with my submod i've made the game alot hard. so here's a preview of whats comming!

well the basics are calvery charges are VERY strong, you dont just knock down one or two soliders; you knock down the first line more or less.

General changes

all units get an attack bonus but armor remains the same.

all units are able to be built from the start

all recruitment buildings can make 9 units per turn

all factions start with $$$10 million

all siege units were left the same i may increase the mordor catapult trolls damge since they are in fact trolls

all religeous buildings add 10% per turn instead of 2/4/6%

trolls are UBER

Mummakil are VERY strong

all units are able to be recruited every 2 turns

Isenguard

berserkers are the strongest isengaurd unit by far and will slay alotta people but have almost no armor

wargs are now great against light cal/light infantry but die fast against heavy infantry/ heavy cal

alll uruk-hai have 12 attack but the lesser troops just have a small increase

the Gaurdsmen are your second best unit but are the most armored

clansmen can be recruited in all of your settlements

Eridor

dunidane rangers can be recruited out of all your cites

battle ready dunidane are your best solders with the dunidane archers

all units can be recruited VERY fast but arent as good as most other factions

dunidane rangers are VERY skilled archers and as such have alot of attack

Arnor

all units get a major attack upgrade

Blue elves

the best archers in the known world

faster pool times but each unit still takes 2-3 turns to make

Green Elves

also has the best archers in the known world but ha more varity and can get ents if an enemy owns Fangorn

Rohan

best calvery in the known world

all units can be recruited out of all settlements

calvery archers are very strong in melee and archery

OOMM

trolls can be made out of all settlements

Orcs of Gundabad

trolls can be made out of every settlement

Dale

swordmasters are as good as berserkers, but heavily armored

longbowmen are strong as well

use the dwarfs to help if you are in trouble, the dwarf infantry is definatly the best in this world

Dwarfs

all units get a nice attack increase, armor remains the same

all units can be recruited at any settlement even the gaurds of Khazadum

little archers and still no calvery

Rhun

strong calvery and light infantry with excellent calvery archers

strong generals and prolly the best for a newcomer

Harad

mummakils are stronger then ever and there archer will slaughter men from a distance while you trample your foes

mummakils can be recruited from any settlement

prolly the best late-game faction since you'll have alot of mummakil

Mordor

trolls can be built in any settlement

for fun, you can have black gates on any citidel

troops are descent but trolls will make you a strong force

can build armies the fastest

Gondor

all units can be built in any settlement (please read final note about this, its kinda messed up for certain units)

Faramir's bodygaurds are your best units with AMAZING attack USE HIM WELL!

ithillian rangers are your best archer unit (besides foutain gaurds and swans)

blackfoot archers are also good but alittle weaker than Ithillian rangers

Final notes/thoughts

for gondor, dismounted swan knights can be made in Dol and in pelagir...

gondor has the roughest time in the beginning since mordor and eventually harad will be trying to kill you

i recomend using "process_cq" since you already are at a nice disadvantage

this dosent work atm with any other mod.. HOWEVER ill prolly make it useable with Barons submod (with permission of course)

you may think its lame how come you have alotta money and it will make this game boring and easy.. well trust me it isnt!!! your money will run out fast unless you are careful

theres alotta coding i have to do for all this and since i accidently overwrit it all ;( but it will be up within a week

i'll be listening to all suggestions that people give and will update then to suit all players

BONUS!!!!

check out the pic i attack is a screen shot of what you have to expect by turn 40!!!

WOW! Epic fights i supose.

**W1Z21** · October 01, 2010, 03:08 PM

yes did you enjoy the sceen?

**RBFloat05** · October 01, 2010, 10:19 PM

looks like it could be one of the most third age mods out. RELEASE ppl will like it.

**W1Z21** · October 01, 2010, 11:15 PM

well im thinking of adding it to another mod (with permission) and give them credit...

**RBFloat05** · October 02, 2010, 10:02 PM

Dam, i like what i see. The only thing i think maybe think about , late game I think mordor shouldnt be surpassed by Harad as the deadliest faction. Lore wise mordor was by far the strongest faction.

also how does army upkeep work?

but anyways lookin tight. ALSO,,,,,major props

if this is made compatible with barons submod.
