Here come 54 new banner carriers for Gondor and Arnor... https://ufile.io/ym20n (approx 35 MB; I have possibly added useless files, and I cannot guarantee I did not miss anything... if there is something missing, tell me)
There are some for my own custom units you do not have (like the Lebennin Pikemen, Ringlo Warriors, or Mounted Ithilien Rangers; I am using my own specific Amroth units which are based on the vanilla Arnor troops + modified militia)
The system I use is basically an officer + 2 banner carriers for each battalion; sometimes just one banner carrier (for the rangers etc); the regular Gondor units carry a black banner and a blue banner, the bodyguard units carry a white banner and a black banner, the militia carries a black or blue banner + regional banner, etc. The combinations are yours to make. The militia regional banner models refer to several different banners which are picked at random, there is no system. The basic idea is that in your battles you will see militia battalion coming from different regions of your realm. Each banner carrier is a specific figure, there are no generic banner carriers, so a ranger banner carrier is a ranger, a Fountain Guard banner carrier is a Fountain Guard; of course, if you do not like it, you may choose and use just those you prefer.
Like everything I do : all permissions are granted, including modifications, publications, litterally anything - I do not care, enjoy, use it, mod it. No credits required. And I call all these "minor additions" for the simple fact they are minor mechanical improvements to the existing work made by many much more skilled artits. If anyone feels I used his own work here, I will either credit him or remove it at once should this be requested. I believe all this is just a modification of the vanilla TATW pieces, but I mod this game for 10 years and it might happen I took something years ago without paying attention to who the author was and what were his conditions of use of his work... oh yes, the Dol Amroth militia and the Gondor Militia upgrades come from someone else I believe. I did not create any of these textures, I just put together different parts with slight modifications to fit the game's system for doctored figures.
This will be completed by the Fornost pikemen; and Eriador banner carriers. The zip file contains the models and the textures in their standard game subfolders referenced by the modeldb code which is attached; it should work simply by copying the subfolders to your game, possibly overwrite old files (make backup!), copy the modeldb code to your modeldb file, rise the number of entires on the first line by 54 (if you use all of them), and add the officers to your edu. Nothing for begginers here, sorry.
EDIT: some missing textures added in post 30; all the unit textures need to go to en_lhmail_hmail\textures, not just textures

D you want some units back in MOS 1.7? Install this mod http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...n-1-1-RELEASED
It adds back units who were deleted from the campaign in MOS 1.7, namely the Winged Swordsmen, the Citadel Guard Archers and the Gondor Dismounted Bodyguard.
Under the proud patronage of Frunk of the house of Siblesz
It's good work.... but there's something missing in the attachmentsets, so were they are: gondor_banner_infantry_1_norm , this one is only a example since all of the norm ones are missing. Also in the textures you also miss the amrothpike. Anyway i install all the others and they work fine
Oh it's worse than that :-)) all the unit textures need to go to en_lmail_hmail\textures subfolder, but you have found it I am sure. I will post them at once.
And a minor bonus: woodland_lod0.zip the woodland hunters with improved weaponsets, so their axe is seen on their backs when they use the bow; and vice-versa.
And another thing, I messed up the Arnor banner carrier I use for Dol Amroth too, here is the corrected model with the corrected Arnor texture (texture goes to attachementsets; model goes to the northern captain flag folder: https://ufile.io/5vv0p

EDIT: To illustrate that these these minor additions are actually major additions, here are a few screenshots. Some of the banners have been modified to match some of the ones already in the RK mod.

Good job on those; the evil guys definetly need more figures, the orc riding with the Black Numenoreans needs to follow a dress code :-))
Here are a few more forgotten textures: https://uploadfiles.io/o92qj (the gondor2 is for the Citadel guards, I think I've changed their helmet by adding some wings which look better than the textured ones in my opinion - yet it means you probably will have to rename the file and use it in parallel with the vanilla one so you don't alter your units; and the Foutain Guard as gondor3 with a front silver losange - these should work with the vanilla mesh I think, the losange is but an addition)

Sounds good, I am enjoying fighting battles on the battlemap more and more.
EDIT: This is the last batch of pics (at least until Adjutant-Major makes some more), I think nearly everything that he has been made has now been highlighted.
Osgiliath Bannermen, along with three upgrade levels for the Osgiliath Pikemen. (I adjusted the bannermen to have the third upgrade.)
