I'm in hotel quarantine atm and am not able to put together the previews until I get out. Work on the mod is otherwise continuing pretty much as normal.

Glad you guys like them - it was a lot of fun taking the sub-roster that were orcs in DoM and turning them into a proper faction for Wainriders :)

It's sort of a point of pride for FATW that we don't use scripts in the campaign design, which generally makes things a bit more smooth and stable.

We have some tricks up our sleeves for doing something a bit similar though, you'll just have to wait and see what we come up with ;)

Yes, that was one of the reasons (not the main reason, mind) for going with ALX on this one - so that it would be easy to have both mods at the same time.

It's very likely that we will do this to some extent for at least one of them ;)

Love the greek influence on the armour design :)

the good news is the units aren't going anywhere :P In all seriousness when you have a closer look at the lore of this timeperiod I think you'll like the way we've done it. Lorien will have an important role and purpose in one of the key conflicts of the campaign.

well, you're partially right ;)

We will definitely get to that, though with a couple of notable exceptions those things are largely cosmetic, so aren't the highest priority right now. Working hard to get the campaign into playable 'alpha' state atm.

Hehe, I'll make a note to wait till Monday to put the next one up ;)

No, the mystery is part of the fun :P

What folder did you install the mod into?

You need to make sure you're running Barbarian Invasion, this error occurs if you accidentally run RTW instead.

No, but there will be hobbits.

Yes and yes.

full unit ;)

Pretty well, through the hardest part of most of the new unit designs required, into the easier things like weapon swaps and texture adjustments now.

=D

They are supposed to be a relatively colourful, hopeful looking faction, but you're right that they may be a bit too far in that direction. Thanks for the feedback!

They're finished :)

Not yet

Ahh, I use the total war camera mode exclusively, so that explains that :P

We're doing our best to make sure that's a very satisfying challenge ;)

Working on it now =D

Thanks mate, and you got 11 of them completely right and another couple close. If you check out some of the details of the time period (Third Age 1864 start date) you can probably work out which ones are wrong ;)

One hint, the bottom symbol isn't rebels :P

Haha, so happy someone else enjoyed that :P

This is many, many years before Isenguard (Angrenost as it was then known) was associated with Saruman or any orcs, but you are right that it is the Tower of Orthanc on one of the banners. You'll learn more about that faction in the next week or so ;)

I've played my fair share of alx mods (XGM, LotrTW, etc) and never noticed anything to do with double clicking, what's the issue there?

=D

looking fantastic!
