Thread: Last Alliance - Download, Information and General Discussion

    Default Re: Last Alliance - Download, Information and General Discussion

    A troop of Silvan Elves formed by Oropher in the resemblance of the Marchwardens of Doriath. As with their cousins from Lothlórien, their task is to guard the borders of the Woodland Realm and keep all evil away from here. They use short spears instead of axes as side weapons, due to the more practicality of these weapons when faced with wargs and other large beasts.

    Sorry for the silence in recent times. I have been feeling quite unwell physically and mentally most of the time over the last few weeks. However, work on Eryn Galen has been going on all the time, so you can expect more previews soon (especially as I'm feeling better now) ^^

    That's a cool Silvan Elf and I like the way that you explain the thinking behind the choice of side weapon!

    It's good to hear that you're feeling better, good luck with the continuing work on Eryn Galen.

    Tawarwaith Greenspears
    In days of peace, these warriors are responsible for guarding the elven settlements in case any beasts manage to sneak past the Borderlanders. They also inspect travellers who wish to pass through the forest using the Men-i-Naugrim. During expeditions whether against orcs or wargs, Oropher forms them into squads whose task it is to hold the line if the first attack from ambush is not successful enough.

    Tawarwaith Beechglaives
    It can be said that they are the strike force of the Woodland Realm. If a larger and better-armed enemy wishes to invade Eryn Galen these warriors, specialised in fighting with glaives, gather to face them. Whoever survives the hail of arrows of silvan elves will then have to endure the fight against these exquisite warriors.

    Excellent work on the new Eryn Galen Silvan Elves units! That should be a neat new faction to play with indeed. Also can't wait for the Northmen and Khand to be introduced into the game. Considering the warp speed at which you release this stuff, we'll probably have it within a year!

    Unfortunately for me, though, I've run into another serious snag. I have had no problems in my present Kingdom of Lindon campaign until now, at turns 145 to 146. Thankfully I have a save point at the previous winter season at turn 139. However, a lot happened since then! Both Cirdan and Elrond healed from being wounded by enemy ninja assassins, and I conquered the last castle towns owned by the Kingdom of Umbar. I will have to do all of that again now that the game consistently crashes whenever I try to load the latest saves (both Quicksave and the major springtime save point). I am afraid to continue and replay those turns at all, though.

    I did a bit of testing before since this is now the second time the game has done this in the past day of playing. I pretty much figured out it has something to do with recruitment of naval ships and land troops. There seems to be some sort of natural cap on the number of troops you can recruit before the game freaks out and crashes when you try to reload a campaign. I have a huge empire, over 90 provinces (almost 100), with tons of fleets and armies due to controlling all the major trade routes. I replayed the last several turns already after getting rid of some troops and naval ships, especially those in the middle of being recruited. I thought maybe the glitch had something to do with ships at ports not having enough room or something, but now the game crashes apparently even when you recruit too many regular foot soldiers.

    Have you ever had this experience, Sara? I was perhaps a bit too zealous in recruiting troops. I've got something like 30 to 40 full stack armies. I thought the Shogun II game engine could simply handle it like M2TW, but apparently not. I even kicked down the graphics to see if that had anything to do with it, but that also didn't fix the problem. I guess I'll have to go back to a previous save point and disband troops? Scuttle ships?

    No idea, I never tried to recruit 40 full stack armies o.O

    Not too many Sindar came with Oropher to Eryn Galen, but enough to support him in the defence of his new kingdom. These excellent warriors still have memories of the wars in Beleriand and would not spare the lives of anyone who wished to invade their new home.

    In these days, the northern part of Eryn Galen is more dangerous than the southern part. The nearby mountains are full of tribes of orcs and wargs. For this reason, these areas must be patrolled by the most experienced of the Silvan Elf warriors.

    Northguard is local unit for Eryn Galen, will be available in two northern provinces of Greenwood the Great.

    Great job! Can't wait to see the new and improved campaign map with extended settlements in the northeast. That and the Northmen faction to come! Should make things more interesting up in that corner for neighboring factions.

    The people living on the Rhovanion steppes didn't have a safe life. During the Dark Days they were frequently raided by Easterlings and orcs crawling out from under the Black Gate and the Mountains of the north. Therefore, the Northmen leaders had to be able to call the people to arms at any time. Each village had to be ready to field and arm a group of horsemen ready to join the main forces. They have little combat experience, but in these dark times every spear and bow matter.

    Northmen horse archers looking cool indeed! I also like the faction emblem you've chosen for them with the green background and white steed. Cool stuff. Is that axe I see there going to be their sidearm when they engage directly in melee combat instead of shooting arrows?

    Yes, very cool! As Roma_Victrix said, the colours are well-chosen and the combination of the white horse and the pattern around the edge is very effective. Looking at the green and brown colours of this rider, it looks like they will be able to hide well and perhaps have the ability to deploy outside the usual deployment zone at the start of the battle?

    I'm wondering if there was an inspiration for the axe design (to me, it looks similar to an 18th century tomahawk, but that could simply be because I've been playing Empire Total War recently!).

    Yeah, they will use axes in melee combat

    Nope, they aren't hide type of unit. Just I chose such color palete for their clothes ^^' About axe - it's probably anglo-saxon or viking axe, I not sure because Luiza Aris (she help me with research and gameplay design) sent me not described photo ^^'

    These warriors do not put down their weapons even in peacetime and are always ready to answer the call of their ruler at any time. These are regular troops of Northmen recruited from among the people of the steppes who wish to train in the art of war. Using tactics taken from their enemies and equipped with armour that the dwarves taught them to forge, they're a proper army on which the rulers of Rhovanion can rely.

    A closer look at the Northmen's helmets. These will be used mainly by Muster units. Which one do you like the most?
