The First Overhaul:
GOBLINS
As of right now, every unit in the Goblin faction has received an updated model (with the exception of those that didn't need one, like the Mountain Giants and Drogoth).
Some of the more striking differences between our model pack and the vanilla game are detailed below.
Goblin Warriors
We've decided to incorporate the awesome shield designed for the Fellowship of the Ring film for our Goblin Swordsmen unit.
Spider Riders
We've dressed our Spider Riders in Goblin armor so that they look fiercer and look like they belong with the regular Goblin ranks.
Half-Troll Marauders
The Half-Troll Marauders have received a new, HD texture and several subtle model improvements.
Gorkil, the Goblin King
Gorkil is one of those vanilla designs that we never liked. We decided to redesign his model, making him look more like a Goblin leader.
That concludes our article highlighting the new art for the Goblin faction. Which faction would you like to see next?
~ Rider of Rohan & Mathijs
Please when the new community patch comes out add an option to enable or disable house colors. Dwarves or Isengard next
Me and Mathijs aren't in control of what the community patch is going to bring out, but I do doubt they'd make that system available.
Lets see if more people agree with your faction choices :).
I know but I think most players would agree with that. I'll try to take a poll at Revora for that and if that fails, when the time comes, I'll do it my self for my game, nevermind about that ;). Note:Spider Riders are visually changed like that or in game they start of like the vanilla ones and then we can upgrade them with heavy armour to be like in the picture ?
The Spider Riders do start off with the armor, naked Goblins going into war didn't really make sense to us :P. They don't receive Heavy armor so they stay the same throughout the game armor wise.
So its just texture, no upgrade. Thanks, they look badass
The new Gorkil looks much better than the vanilla one.
May I ask, why the Scorpion stayed? Is it because you like it, or because you don't think that there are better alternatives, or is it just to uch work to change it at the moment?
Because, I personally dislike the Scorpion.
Primary reason is that we can't make coding changes with this patch, and giving him a different mount would require changing his animation code.
Guys will you make remodels for all units and upgrades for soldiers?
Can you clarify what you mean? But I'll answer based on what i think you've said
The goblins have received a remodel and new texture, when upgraded the texture changes to the armor to gold just like in the Original BFME games.
I mean will you create remodels for all (all of all) units (for example goblins spiders,i don't see screen for remodel spiders) and will you make remodels for armor and blades or you use standard models of upgrades for untis?
Edit: **** me, I didn't see that "(with the exception of those that didn't need one, like the Mountain Giants and Drogoth)."
Will you make remodels all uprades for units* or will you leave them?
*Upgrades for all nations in game
Yes most units will get a remodel, but some units that already have good models (Trolls, Half Trolls, Mumakil) will get new textures instead. The Spider Rider's Spider is EA's original spider model but just the best version of it so there is no need to showcase it.
ForgedBlades and Heavy armor remain in the same styling as shown above and in other updates I believe.

What's about guy with flag (he spawn soldiers)?He will have remodel or maybe flag will be new?
The Banner Carrier has the new Goblin Model. The flags we will be keeping the same they are pretty good as they are.
