Return of Shadow Beta 0.27 News


A poll was created for players to vote on which faction will be the focus of Beta 0.27 the votes are in a Mordor is the focus.

Mordor 4.0 Changes


After a good deal of brainstorming I've got some interesting stuff planned for Beta 0.27

First off Thrakrat is being cut as a playable hero instead he'll be part of Gothmog's new summon that will replace Circle of Death.
This new summon will summon Thrakrat plus a randomised assortment of Mordor/Morgul units.

A new system is being added to Mordor similar to the Specialisation system from Fiefdoms called Tribalism.
This new system will allow a player to chose between 3 different Tribes of Mordor that will unlock a new unit, upgrade a specific hero and upgrade a specific unit.
The heroes will get an upgrade to one of their skills and units will get an upgrade to stats.

The 3 Tribes are:
Ungol - Ungol will upgrade Gorbag and the Morannon Soldiers while unlocking the new unit the Ungol Troopers a fast moving infantry unit that will act as a fast glass cannon unit.

Durthang - Which will upgrade Lugmog, Mordor Fighters and unlock the Durthang Slavers a heavy infantry unit that attacks with Maces and Cudgels.

Gorgoroth - Will upgrade Grishnakh, Mordor Archers and unlock the Gorgoroth Skirmishers a free weak archer unit suitable for spamming.

Slaughter Houses will have a new feature with each you buy you'll discount the Mordor Fighters by 25% so with 5 Slaughter Houses Orcs will be free.
Shagrat and Gorbag's Clan Allies will become passive skills, new defence structures are being added as well as various changes and visual updates.


Meder


A new map will also be included Meder a 4 player Castle map set in the Eastern lands of Rhun this map has a valley with a small water hole in the centre.

Have you guys heard of the Battle for Middle-Earth Online Edition? It's a free version of BfME you can download online, and it's great for people like me who have lost their disks. I suspect that a lot more people are playing this version, which is available to anyone, and bugfixed (they're on v1.06) than the original game. Here's a link to their page: Thebfme.com

Please update this mod to 1.06 of the Online Edition! Otherwise a ton of people (myself included) can't play it.

It already works with 1.06, for the online edition I don't know I personally don't use it.
No reason it shouldn't work with it.
