Epic campaign which unites FROME 2.05 and AUM 2.1+better cavalry charge

[son of romans]

Hello,
This compilation unites two best modes for Third Age 2.1,Forgotten Realms Of Middle-Earth and Additional Units Mod (AUM) 2.1.
FROME 2.05 is a masterpiece of koultouras and of his team,because of it I readed Silmarion and understand that Silvan Elves should be divided in two,and Dunland should not be a part of Isengard.First you need to have this Great Mode installed on your TA 2.1-it can be found here:http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=323812 The second mode is AUM 2.1,the creator of this mode Agostinos,have completed Arnor;High Elven;Rhun;Silvan Elven and Rohan roster,for everyone was a great news that Agostinos returned to modding,and he made us again happy with his units.It is here:http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=254552 After you installed FROME 2.05 download AUM 2.1 and paste it data folder in you TA directory with replacing all,after that take my data folder(dezarhived) from my compilation and again paste it in your TA data folder with replacing all. In this compilation I changed very much from original mods,first of all is that campaign bocomed more epic because each factions have quite big armies from beggining,Mordor have 15000 soldiers,Isengard 7000,but they have quite week units,Good factions have smaller armies High Elves 1500,Gondor 6500-but they win in quality.The second what I done for balance of game is that I added DeaPaladin Imladris Pikeman to High Elves and Doll-Amroth pikeman to Gondor,all thanks to Dea Paladin and to Sagwara84 for their great work.Third-I changed unit recruitment with one tier earlier,so in Drill Square you can recruit such units like Gondor Infantry,Eldar Swordsmen,Uruk-hay pikeman but you should wait first barrack event to get Citadel Guard,Bersekers,Mumakil.Fourth-I changed most of units stats,now most of them have greater defence,cavalry is more expensive,in all orc battalions are 251 men,but now cavalry have twice stronger charge and penetrates enemy lines more real-there are many other changes for those who like Rohan and Elves.In the same folder are three songs of Lind Elebros(Elven Oratory),are very good when you play with elves.Here are some scrinshots.
Here is Lorien army:






Mirkwood army:



Dwarvens of Ered Luin:



Dunland army:


Other scrinshoots:

Here is a image of two additional pikeman units:


Some of Agostinos units:


I made some changes to Eriador which can twicely decrease time to restore Arnor,now Anuminas have Stone Wall and 3500 population.And now House of Kings is building in 8 turns and cost 18000.



And changes made by me to cavalry charge:

Nice work ^^ , and first I red "Elite camping (which) unites" in the thread's title . Glad to see it's not about hiking in the forest... or perhaps it is .

[koultouras]

...because of it I readed Silmarion and understand that Silvan Elves should be divided in two,and Dunland should not be a part of Isengard

thats definitely an award for us(frome team)....making someone read the professor's work so to
research and find the very purpose of our submod...is something
that we didnt have in mind in the 1st place ...but since its done it is indeed
very rewarding towards our work and a most wellcome surprise(the teacher is coming out of me atm)
nice SoR.....keep it up!

In this case it is not my fault,I haven't touched their textures,just played with Eriador a battle against them,everything is OK,I play my compilation,They are silver because of a problem with descr battle model,but it is something with your instalation or system.

[Gallus]

is it compatible with Baron Samedi's submods? now THAT would be awesome.

No,it is not but like in Baron Samedi's submod unit recruitment is faster,and more realistic.

I guess I did do something wrong . As you said, my mistake, but thanks for pointing it out. Now I'm up and playing. I'd rep you again if I could, this is heavenly.

PS: I tried to combine it with SEE for FRoMe but that didn't seem to work, just thought I'd mention it.

Cam I choose to have Golden Galahdrim units instead of the Green Textures?

That you should ask koultouras .
I like very much arrmor upgrade to Galadhirim Bodyguards,and will be great to make it main body texture for Galadhirim arcers,ask him about it,maybe he will change and send to us an answer.

[Odenathus]

I know koultouras posted something that removes the green and gives to all Galadhrim units the golden colour. You should check the FRoME forum Everto, it's somewhere on the openingpage.

This text file balance factions,now AUM Dismounted Royal Kingsmen can be recruited only in Edoras,AUM Eldar Swodsmen can be recruited in third barracks level.Copy it in your Third Age data folder with replacing all.

[paradamed]

Thanks for this submod. I have something to ask you pls. Would it be too much to ask you to include LL heroes pls? You just gave us this great compilation and I kind of feel bad for asking but anyway it doesnt hurt to ask.

[son of romans]

Thanks for great words,you ask about text files because I don't think that LL will give his aprove,sincerly I think that only think that need this compilation is a script which make possible to unite Cultures,Elven,Northmen,Dunedain,Evil Men etc,Baron Samedy will be a great addition,if someone have a link of Baron Samedy mod compatible with FROME please send me,or if someone can help me with implementing some of it's scripts,except Arnor instant union,I rather make Anuminas a minor city then accepting such a easy conversion,and Total Recruitment I think is not necesary with changes I made...

[paradamed]

There is already the LL submod for FROME and he approved it. This is why I asked. I hope someday all the great submods will be united.

[MarKusDib]

An even better submod proposal , + rep 2 U Sons Of Romans !!!

If you have already installed FRoME, is it safe to download this one? In othe words: is it save-game compatible with an earlier FRoME download?

Yes,it is but still you will not have all bonuses like if you started a new camapign like big begining army and AUM 2.1 units recrutable,in an older FROME campaign you can recruit AUM units but not as fast as in a new camapaign,depends on what buildings you have...

Awesome!! What (by the way ) do you think of the random spawning armies that come up so randomly whenever playing FRoME. For instance, when I play Rohan (my personal favorite), at turn 3 or so an incredibly elite stack of Isengard units spawn at my front borders. Bummer!
