Thinking bout taking another crack at a story for this. Before I do, though, I'm planning on tinkering with the mod some more.
Before I do this, I'd like to do a run through and get rid of any issues, like missing civ entries.
So please post issues/bugs here, as well as any options or changes you think might be good for the next addition. One change I think we need is to make the goblin worg riders the default barbarians, 2/1/2 for the early ones, 3/2/3 for the later ones. And to make the mod more challenging.
One mistake I made awhile back, without realizing it of course, was destroying some of the forts. I didn't know back then that if Sauron owned the forts when they are placed with the editor, he could 'see' with them. So I'll correct this.
I'm also requesting more units so we can streamline the appearance. The units are great, but obviously made by many different hands. If someone wants to put in the time to uniform the goblins/orcs, for example, that would be awesome. Also, any other graphics you would like to see, resources and such, lemme know.
I'm also going to get rid of a lot of the extra files from my download, and just include some optional city sets.
One question for the Weaze man... why are there so many king units per civ? I could probably figure this out, but if you have a quick answer, that would be great. I guess they upgrade for some reason.
After that, I'll try to put in more civs until I hit the 31 mark. I had done this at one point, but lost that version to the fates.
Lastly, and this is a long shot, but I may also make a version that uses only army-type units, instead of normal units. I've been tinkering with this, not sure if I like it yet, takes a bit of work so I haven't really played a game with it so far, just made some units and fought a battle. If I did this for LotM, though, someone would have to make some orc army flics (orcs with flags). Or munits for orcs/goblins.
And, again, I had nothing to do with the creation of this mod, that was Weazel's team, I just found it, fell in love with it, and have made a few minor changes that are suitable to my playstyle, so all credits again go to Weazel and company for making the BEST MOD EVER.
And to de Borg and Kyriakos, 'cause I use their graphics in my version. de Borg's water is still my favie fav terrain, and the Greek's cities make me cry. Kyriakos, btw, updated his orc city sets for us, I believe, and also made hobbit and elf sets for us as well - although he didn't actually say he made them because of the resurging interest in this mod, I strongly suspect this is the case.
I'll try to keep better tract of whose graphics are added to my next additions. I didn't originally, because I didn't expect to share my version with anyone.
