Gondolin or Elves in general Thread - From Book to Game - Quenta Silmarillion mod for Battle for Middle-earth II

For the Elves of Gondolin, are you going to have the leaders of each house a hero or mini hero, perchance? Also, could you implement the sub-faction for the elves to pick which kingdom to control? Which could include, Gondolin, Beleriand, and the others? I was just wondering, it would be quite amazing, actually! Anyway, thanks for starting this mod, it is going to be quite amazing!! Anyway thanks!

Minifactions, rather, and yeah, that'd be cool. Only two, or three though, so we don't unbalance it or overstretch BFME2's reach.

there will be lords of gondolin. trugon summons them for his last power.
turgon summons galdor, rog, egalmoth, penlod, duilin, salgant, maeglin, glorfindel, ecthelion and a tuor with limited powers

Thanks for consulting the quartet, reallyfat!

Oh another quick question, in the Gondolin story when there are survivors escaping it says that Legolas comes to there aid, obviously it's not the same Legolas as during the War of the Ring, so will there be a difference between them in the game or what? Thanks!

We have so many Elf hero options that we will choose not to overcomplicate things, so we won't use Legolas

Oh ok, that is very true! Thanks! ^^

This is regarding Celebrimbor and the Eregion elves, you probably already answered this but will Imladris be considered as Eregion then, because Imladris is comprised of the survivors of Eregion, and then will Eregion be a sub-faction? Then concerning Celebrimbor, will one of his powers be pertaining to the rings of power? Then he makes the respective heroes who received the rings stronger?

Legolas does not 'come to their aid', that legolas is part of egalmoth's house. No, he is not the same as that Legolas Thranduilion. and i agree with fellbeast. we have too many named elves to put in people like Legolas.
Celebrimbor founded Eregion. Elrond founded Imladris. Eregion's survivors went to Imladris, but the majority of the Imladhrim were from Lindon. Anyway, Celebrimbor forged the rings in the second age. this is about the first age. And don't forget, he gave the rings to Círdan, Gil-galad, and Galadriel. None of those will be heroes. Círdan, Celebrimbor, and Gil-galad will be in the campaign of course, but will not be recruitable in skirmish. nor will the sons of Fëanor and many others. But, you know, we may implement him and Gil-galad later, if we make a Sindar faction. Y'know after the fall of Nargothrond, he went to Balar, with Gil-galad and Círdan? So, maybe.
BTW, if you have ideas for units , post them here. You are learned in the art of Tolkien.

Fell, what do you mean by
