The war of the valar will bring to life the first, second, and early third ages of arda with new factions like the eldar, dunedain, khazad, and angband. New spell tree abilities will be added as well as an improved ai system, and a new hero system. The new hero system will only take place in the new skrimish trigger maps.The map will consist of 3 silmarils. Once these silmarils are brought to a maia of players that team (i.e. Sauron, gandalf, etc) they will be able to call forth an ainur such as manwe or melkor.

Dunedian Archers (basic archer unit)
Soldiers of Arnor (basic melee unit)
Sentinel (has expanded view and is a very strong archer, only one soldier, can summon two dunedian archers to his side)
Knights of Annuminas (basically the Knights of Minas Tirith in the original gondor faction)

I would take each an every one of these Dwarves over the mightiest army, for when i called upon them, they answered. Loyalty, honor, a willing heart. I can ask for know more than that.

I noticed a few of those are from other games. I will discuss these images with my idealist to analyze their respect to lore; i dont remember exactly how the edain are depicted by tolkien ;)

Edain history is very complex because they are the children of Iluvatar seconds and has three very different place in the world of man that I have more reference is after the wars of the Valar where Edain were known Numenorian Dunedain or concepts are nearly 100% based on these

The Three Houses of the Edain

These men were first called Bëor one. Finrod makes the king of Beleriand, Thingol, granted first live Estolad region and then along with the Noldor Finrod in Dorthonion forest. These men became known as the First House of the Edain, or the House of Beor.
Later, in the region of Thargelion governed by Caranthir, son of Fëanor, men appear to be known as the Haladim. They are men of the forest, and with permission of Thingol, get set later in Brethil forest, the forest west of Doriath. They are those who would be known later as the Second House of the Edain or Haleth House. According to what was said in Unfinished Tales, also accompany the men known as Druedain Woses ancestors of the Third Age.

Finally came the men who would be later known as the Third House of the Edain or the House of Hador, very organized warriors were men, who managed to live as vassals of the King of the Noldor, Fingolfin, in the land of Dor-lómin. For those who know, the Third Age Rohirrim are related to the House of Hador, the ancestors of the Rohirrim were from the group of men who later entered Beleriand and were known as the Third House, but these ancestors remained east of the Misty Mountains and did not enter or Eriador or Beleriand.

The rest of the men who came to take part in the history of Beleriand Edain not considered properly.
