Can you update it with the ideas from the civ list?

Just give me a few minutes to do so.

Thank you. I'll come up with the stats tomorrow.

And done.

Just to let you know, the Racial Names are just Place Holders, we would prefer to come up with something more Unique or Referenced Directly from Tolkien's work for them. The same with Buildings eventually.

EDIT: Remember, by all means, come up with other ideas as well. We have already had some in-depth discussions regarding the Dwarven (should be renamed Khazad) Sappers.

I think the easterling UU should be chariot, not Haradrim (they had mumakil and horseman). The Easterlings include the wainriders (thus chariots). Also, Haradrim might get some ships for the Corsairs of Umbar if we include them here.
For the house of Feanor, maybe we can use something like elven swordsman. The vanyar used mostly spears apparently so maybe something hoplite like. Maybe give all elves except the Noldor special archers, but the Noldor more specialized in the melee/spearman.
For Arnor, something of the earlier times that is special: watchmen maybe? Edain I wouldn't really know. Maybe no horses and only footmen but they are better? Maybe wolves (apparently one of the great wolves killed the lead werewolf but I forgot the name).
Dunlendings: units that plunder more gold or receive money per kill. Maybe also cheaper but weaker units.
Angband: also werewolves, vampires.

One of the things that annoys me about Civ4 is that you only get one unique unit - so when it's obsolete, you go back to the same unit list as everyone else. I would like to see multiple unique units, if not overlapping, at least so that you should have at least one useful unique unit at any given point in the game.

Indeed, don't limit it to one UU per civ (though don't go out of your way to add the same number for each civ either.)

I agree, and i think this is something everybody here feels the same about: we add UU's when we think they are appropriate (even UUs for multiple civs but not all civs are possible like dwarven something for all dwarven civs if appropriate). The number does not have to be the same, we just have to keep the balance in what kind of an edge they give.

I agree with a lot of what you guys said there.

I will change the Chariot to Easterlings from Harad. I will add Corsair to Harad.

I will update Edain with Swordsman and Spearmen for Vanyar.

If I missed something, point it out. (By the way, except for a few additions/changes of my own, most of that list is Berenthors at this point from his original Civ list).

Here are some suggestions:

Noldor: House of Fingolfin:
- UUs: hmm... IDK (maybe improved Captain of some kind? swordsman?)
Noldor: House of Fëanor:
- UUs: Son of Fëanor (replaces Captain (or Hero or whatever)), each get individual names
Teleri:
- UUs: Swan Ships (early transport) - I like the idea though of them having a large number of unique ship units (instead of giving them archers)
Sindar:
- UUs: Sindarin Archers (act like Rangers?), something to replace scout maybe?
Vanyar:
- UUs: Vanyarin Spearmen

Good Men:

Númenor:
- UUs: several unique ships (available later than the first Telerin ones)
Arnor:
- UUs: Dunedain Rangers (horseman & rangers, if this is possible)
Gondor:
- UUs: Tower Guards, maybe Ithilien Rangers
Edain:
- UUs: Edain Swordsman (is 'Edain' permissible as an adjective?)

Neutral Men:

Rohirrim:
- UUs: Several different mounted units.
Northmen:
- UUs: Dale archers sounds good, IDK about ship
Dunlending:
- UUs: some sort of Raider unit? (+gold on victory?)
Isengard:
- UUs: Uruk-Hai

Evil Men:

Haradrim:
- UUs: Mûmakil (only civ with elephants), Corsair (some kinda Privateer unit)
Easterling:
- UUs: Chariots, maybe Easterling Pikemen later on (those guys look friggin' awesome in the movies)
Angmar:
- UUs: no idea

Shadow:

Mordor:
- UUs: Orcs, Uruks, Trolls
Angband:
- UUs: Balrogs, Dragons, Orcs, no trolls though (Morgoth didn't use trolls)

Khazâd:

Longbeard:
- UUs: Dwarven slingers, Dwarven Sappers, Dragon slayers
Broadbeams & Firebeards:
- UUs: same as above, maybe? Maybe (maybe for both) a Khuzdul Miner unit that's a worker with faster mine-building times, maybe can also walk on and improve mountain tiles

Removed:

Trolls from Angband
Ship from Northmen

Added:

Added Pikemen to Easterlings
Added Khuzdul Miner (Worker) to Boradbeams & Firebeards

T_F: In regards to the Sons of Feanor, check out the current discussion in the Leaders thread. There is something we are contemplating.

Haradrim maybe also different horsemen.
I would keep the guards of the citadel for Gondor (more important than the tower guards)
For the teleri and Numenor both a line of ships and not just one
Feanor & Fingolfin: both something with special swordsman.
Vanyar maybe also something with magic
Sindar: elven archers and maybe something else for the scout?
Dale maybe something with better workboat or workboat that doesn't get destroyed (skilled at working on the river?)
Angmar: something with sorcery I would say, also maybe special axewielders or something
Dunlending: the gold definetly per unit destroyed (this promo for all units maybe) and overal cheaper but weaker human units

Added some of your suggestions Berenthor.

I like the ideas that we have so far. The few civs that we aren't sure about I don't think there was much information on them in any of the books by Tolkien

I thought I had posted on this thread allready, but here goes again:

Sindar: Forest Sentry (double? defense on Forest Tiles, works especially nice as elven cities can be in forests.)
Angmar: Some kind of undead (Barrow Wights? maybe have some different undeads).

I updated the list with your two suggestions Sengir.

Also, you did post, but it was to say that you don't think that Civs should be limited with only 1 UU.

I just checked, the other computer is still trying to post a message (I tried posting about 10 hours ago :crazyeye: )

A lot of that looks pretty good.

In regards to the Corsair, I was originally thinking a Ship Unit, but that looks good to.

The Dwarven Sapper we were thinking along the lines of the Dwarven (Khazad) artillery piece, instead of a catapult type unit. But that looks interesting as well.

Overall, that looks really good. (Repeating myself, I know, but it is true).

Now to hear what the others think.

In regards to the Dunedain Rangers what do you mean? comment:

I am not really sure. A lot of the info is older that was copied over. Perhaps it is in regards to having more than 1 UU. Not sure. I think it is a throw away comment.

I was wondering what whoever posted the idea meant by it being a ranger & horseman

2 different units. Ranger on Horse and Ranger on Foot. I believe that is what was meant.

Very nice!

I like the ship in general but I would give Arnor also Rangers on foot. I actually meant that there were two units, one as replacement for knight and one for the archers or something.
Elven archers I would restrict to the Sindar.
The Teleri should get a couple of unique ships, including this early transport.
Gondor also tower guards, maybe trebuchets instead of catapults and maybe ithilien rangers (not sure about these).
I would give the Rohirrim really more than just two UU's and make most of there horse units unique and maybe restrict them in the making of advanced infantry.
Isengard should get a blend of Uruk-Hai and men units I think, but not only just one unit uruk hai.
The mumakil cannot replace the war elephant because it does not exist in the game as a normal unit. Also a UU does not have to replace a unit if we don't want to. Haradrim should also get some unique ship(s) for the corsairs and we can maybe use the boarding party system of FFH to actually be able to board ships (the Lanun in FFH2 have it).
I would give the Easterlings two chariots (one with one and one with two horses). I'm not sure about replacing horseman, can also just be a seperate unit for them (other civs cannot make them).
Angband should also get werewolves and several types of dragons (cold dragon, flying dragon, normal non-flying dragon with fire). This could be an upgrade path.
Dwarven slingers might be good as replacements for the archer for both dwarven civs.

Now I am starting to think that Angband has too many UUs

If we balance correctly and deny them access to other units this is really not a problem. It just makes the civ more unique.

Deffinately correct.

Only 1 spelling correction. Werewolves.

Great list. I am liking it more and more. The only other units Angband should have are puny (cheap) Orcs and maybe some weak (cheap) men. Those would be regular units however.

Things are moving along quite nicely now in this area. Thank-you sandman730.

I think they are in the "Shadow" category for all shadow civs (Mordor and Angband). Maybe we can also put trolls there, since Morgoth made them.

I agree Trolls go to Angband as well.

Perhaps we could Rename Foot Dragon to either Land Dragon or Drake.

In the Units thread I think we have decided to make Orcs (Cheap/Weaker Units) as a UU for both Mordor & Angband. This will be their primary Foot Soldier (It can scale up like other Units).

In case you are wondering sandman730, yes, I believe we are going with all UU for Angband & Mordor. The regular Units just don't properly reflect those particular Civs. Of course, if you have any ideas, don't hold them in, speak up.

I assume we have a variety of orcs? Not only orc-warrior, but also orc-crossbowman and orc-axeman?

For the orcs, I would say different kind of orcs (warrior, archer, etc) would be better.

On the dragons, this is how Tolkiengateway discribes the different dragon types:
Means of locomotion:

Some dragons (Scatha) had no legs, or front legs alone, and crawled like snakes.
Others (Glaurung) walked on four legs, like a Komodo dragon or some other lizard.
A third type (Ancalagon, Smaug) could both walk on four legs and fly using wings. Winged-dragons only first appeared during the War of Wrath, the battle that ended the First Age, so all dragons introduced before the end of the First Age couldn't fly (such as Glaurung), although breeds of wingless dragons did survive into later ages.

Fire breathing:

The Urulóki (singular Urulokë, Fire-drakes) could breathe fire. It is not entirely clear whether the term "Uruloki" referred only to the first dragons such as Glaurung that could breathe fire but were wingless, or to any dragon that could breathe fire, and thus include Smaug.
The Cold-drakes could not.

Yes, I believe so. Orc version of all the normal Units except for Mounted ones.

Also, good find Berenthor.

So we will see Orc versions of these Units. All (except for Warrior) will be weaker and cheaper to produce. These will go to both Mordor & Angband.

Orc Units (UU):

Warrior

Swordsman
Axeman
Swordsmaster
Long Swordsman
Infantry (axeman and swordsman both go here)
(only evil) Berserker (does collatoral damage during attack, attack is higher than defense)

Spearman
Phalanx
Pikeman

Bowman
Archer
Longbowman
Marksman
Crossbowman

Scout
Hunter
Ranger

Perhaps we should remove some though for the Orcs.

I would recommend removing the following Units:

Infantry
Phalanx
Marksman
Ranger

What do you think?

Maybe we can make the ranger only for non-evil civs? The rest looks good. Maybe berserker also a troll? Otherwise maybe we have only one troll unit (infantry) and that does not sound right. Also we might not want orcs to upgrade to a troll so that you can build both (orcs cheaper and weaker, trolls more expensive and stronger slightly).

Sorry, just updated the post with a few suggestions. Check it out and let me know what you think.

I would drop some more of them. The list I would keep:

Warrior

Swordsman
Axeman
Long Swordsman
Berserker

Spearman
Pikeman

Bowman
Archer
Crossbowman

Scout
Hunter


Some different versions of Trolls is needed as well IMO (Troll (infantry), Troll Beserker, Troll Stoneslinger)

I like that. I think we might also want to include GROND! as a Seige UU for Mordor. It could be the last one available to them.

That would be a world unit I think (only 1 can be build, ever).

I can agree with that.

I like the idea and the list of orc units. Depending on how we go with Angband, maybe we can remove some orc and troll units for them in favor of their other UUs but in general I think the list is good for the evil civs. Will Angmar also have a number of these units as their UUs? And Isengard?

Grond would be really cool, but definetly a World unit.

I agree that Isengard should have some of these Units, OR, create a number of different Uruk-Hai Units for them and give a few basic Orc Units.

As for Angmar, IIRC they were primarily a "Men" Civ, and not an Orc one.

Yeah that is true. I wasn't sure about that. For Isengard definetly multiple Uruk-hai units and not just one. Also maybe some orcs as beginning units or something.

Perhaps we should cut back on the Dragons a Bit. Just have 2. 1 Land-Based, 1 Flying. They can just upgrade to more powerful versions of the same unit if we want, instead of so many different ones.

Yeah that is true. Maybe the land based start as cold dragons (no fire breathing) and the second version can breath fire. The flying one is also an upgrade of the first one or maybe an upgrade of the second version.

So, 3 stages of Dragons, but only 1 available at any 1 time?

Cold Drake
Fire Drake
Flying Dragon

That is possible. Or four: Cold drake --> Fire drake --> Flying dragon or stronger fire drake (but cheaper than the flying one, or the flying one limited).

Nice ideas on dragons, and Grond would be epic too.

Maybe for dragons you could have either -cold > fire > flying fire- or -cold > flying > flying fire-.

As far as I know there were no non-fire flying dragons. The flying dragons with fire breathing were Morgoths last line of defense against the Valar which struggled with the eagles and Earendil.

For Orcs, maybe they start cheap, but you can group them into one.

So if you have 3 Orc Swordorcs,(5) you can group then into 1 Swordorc group 5 (+ Overwhelming or some sort promotion)

:) Just a suggestion. So that they aren't like axes V.S. Maces, more like Axes +2 str and +10% V.S. Melee grouped V.S. Maces (Using Civ4 modding combat language)

I never thought of that kind of thing. I am not sure how it would work balance wise, but it is something to consider.

The idea is kinda nice, although the way Civ works is that it actually tries not to do this. I also don't know how easy this is to implement. I would stick with the normal units for now.

Implementing this wouldn't even be the hardest part. Teaching the AI to use it on the other hand....

They have that Legions idea in History Of The Three Kingdoms, but I am not sure how it works or how stable it is. Also not sure if we should include it.

It's a great idea if you can get it to work. I have no idea how to implement it.
Maybe it would work kind of like a Flesh Golem.

If you can find any UUs from that period, then I will add them

The units with just the *, have you come up with any ideas for those sandman?

Not yet, but I will work on it.

You are a machine sandman730. Thanks for the hard work. It is much appreciated.

You know, we ended up completely forgetting about the Warg Riders. These will be generic Mounted Orc on Warg units. They will be considered unique however for Shadow Civs.

In regards to Uruks of Mordor for sandman730: These are Uruk-hai as with Isengard, just that the "hai" had been left out.

Looking good. We just need some ideas for the Elven ones and some of the Men ones, like the Rangers, etc..

The Unique Units are getting very close to being done.

Arnor before the Collapse was a Large, Large realm: Therefore I think that their unit should be a faster Unit (Also, they are the farthest away in the northern parts from fighting in Mordor). Maybe Marching ***** (Axemen? Represents a mobile defense and attack force that reached Mordor to fight the same battle other people arrived to fight for.)

Numenor can have a "Armed Sailer" Unit that has Amphibious and when based on a ship (like a plain :)) they get a bonus to attack. Also good for maps with less water as their usefullness in fighting across rivers can be explained.

Uruk Hai Berserkers
+50 v.s. Melee, -X V.S. other. Causes Collaterol Damage. (Theya re the first to reach to top of the wall and came up chopping. National Units? (can build only 20?))

Uruk Hai Marchers
2 Movement, (To catch traspassers, capture heros for ransom ect.)
