Sorry to double post, but I have just tested the Conquest gamemode in multiplayer and I just want to say this gamemode is incredibly nice. It turns games which tended to be static in the standard skirmish mod into frenzy battleS with a lot of movement and a lot of interest.

I am very thrilled by these announcements and I agree the idea is both courageous and well-thought.

The only thing that struck me is the apparent replacement with the olde Conquest mod where we have to hold settlements during 4 minutes.

Maybe this gamemode was the least preffered in a survey done a long time ago but since that time, if I'm not mistaken, we saw Edain 4.5 with the new external/internal choice for economy upgrades that enhance considerably the interest of such a gamemode.

it can be nice for defensive players to sometimes test some gamemode which force them to be more aggressive. This gamemode seems to have more value than a Victory point or a massacre with very few units to manage.

The only thing that lacks to the conquest gamemode is giving the AI also the possibility to win with the same condition than human player.

If the AI control all the map, he will still not win within 4 minutes for the time being, I tested it.

However, if this AI bug could be fixed, the COnquest mod would be very interesting, and sad then if it disappear.

I see there are some sound animations rework.
Just maybe it lacks a sound animation for the spell "Drums in the Deep" for the Misty Mountains.

Once again, a very nice update which dedicate itself to the core priorities of the general balance of the game. I was thinking that the economy of the Misty Mountains was too strong indeed !

So sad sometimes to see some youtubers stopping themselves from exploring this mod because of some few bugs when the general qualité of it all is incredible.

Is it soft ? Is it juicy ? Yes my precious, my love. Thanks a lot Edain team !

Wow, it appears to me after reading this article that modding is an activity so hard, and for Edain, it seems to go harder as the mod became increasingly complex. Congratulations to you guys for never giving up at each step of your project.

Really interesting as always. I note that the bonus when unifying a region focus mainly on resources in real time or some discounts for units.

I remember War Of The Ring in initial BFME II and in ROTWK to include units modifiers such as attack or armor bonus for units and heroes, and I wonder if in Edain 4.6, there will be such bonuses.

We will see...

Love the idea. Like others, I hoped for a flying Ringhero but the fact Smaug's power is connected to the player's amount of ressources is something very unique, and this is what make the Edain mod different from others.

Keep heart until the release, that's great !

Amazing how you overcome obstacles even when the initial plans don't work.
The concept sounds great.

Absolutely amazing !
You guys know how to improve constantly your mod.
Are you considering the idea of making quick campaigns for 2 players using War of The Ring mod ?
Thanks for your constant news and announcements.
