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
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 has 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 but im sure mordor is still best
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
use troll catapults as troops if needed (they are stong foot soliders since they are trolls)
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 any huge city
fountian gaurds are still only availible in Minas Tirith
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 except FRoME 2.0 and barons (will be up soon)
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
ENT mercs are availible at fangorn but id hurry if i was you!
i'll be listening to all suggestions that people give and will update then to suit all players
Install!!!!
just make a backup of your file sand just overide them... and you are done!
PLEASE NOTE!!!! you MUST have a clean version of 2.1 and only barons submod
i'll post screens of my campaign so you can see the kinda stuff you have to face
also please post pics of your campaign t show off the masses of soliders or whatever lol
