Description
A rework of the Men of Carn Dûm. The design was based and inspired on various european cultures.
It spells EPIC!!
They have epic 300 Spartan Helmets!Good job team! :D
Lovely! They have a "evil and more badass Arnor" look to them. Angmar gets a great treatment from you.
AWESOME WORK EDAIN TEAM
the textures are very nice and everything looks amazing but something i have noticed about the helmet it looks so much like gondor's style , if you just can add some spikes
That's only because the images mostly show them from the front, on the right side you can see, that there is quite some difference.
okay thank you , i was worried :)
Coming from a not particularly passionate fan of Angmar as a faction itself, these concepts intrigue me a bit ;)
Furthermore, being them based on European Culture adds an additional great value in my opinion.
Awesome !
Indeed !
I really, really like this, I especially like the hoplite-like helmets. It's just ap perfect design. Very impressive, indeed!
Really cool new models for men of Carn Dum.
The old model was already impressive but this is unsurpassed.
My congratulations and wish you the best voting.
the true dunedain
Too late to edit; Will the black guard make an appearance in 4.3?
You could expect at least all Angmar units from 3.8.1 including the black guard ;)
maybe + shield :) with witch king logo or angmar :)
Beautifull,really excellent work ET! They look like fearome foes to any Race! :)
DAMN! im gonna totally use them agaisnt Mordor while helping Gondor X) They are pretty badass
A deserter WitchKing?! That would make for an epic scenario xD
Hell yeah! Just imagine... Witch King comes out of the Darkness as a light spirit and starts see reality and then there is a civil war in the Kingdom of Angmar where the light wins. Then the Witch King starts helping Gondor in the war agaisnt Mordor
He would die in the end though, the Ringwraiths can only exist bound to Sauron.
no no no....all the good gods would grant him a special power, he would be a light spectre instead of a dark spectre and would have a new ring, a ring of light. Then he would kick-*** :)
Angmar just got a higher place on my favourite factions list :) I've been hyped for Angmar even before you announced Lórien.
AND NOW THE HYPE IS BACK!!!
Amazing!
So Carn Dum Men are more like corrupted Arnorians?
I really like how you filled in the gaps EA created.
I mean, where Black Numenoreans with the Witch-King? Are the men of Carn Dum the Fallen Dunedain you said? Are they meant to be corrupted Dunedain?
The design is not resembling greek hoplites 100%. It's more like a Dunedain style with a dark twist.
However I shall agree with many lads here, that the trident pikes where a lot better.
Cheers.
awesome
make it all english guys .. with real movie voice .. that's uniq .
Everything should be in english, even all the voices. :)
When there are some german voices left, please tell us which as this is a bug.
Can I still switch to German though? I love zaphragor's and mornamarth's German voice
You can always switch with the launcher - but it's always either full english or full german.^^

So epic
unusual but nice! :D
and please don't give them a shield.... ^^
Hey Edain team!
Its been a while since I scouted moddb, and seeing this new Angmar stuff is epic!
But a humble suggestion from my side:
I think the new men of Carn Dum are epic, but so where the old ones. Could it be that you randomize the CD units a bit more?
So for example that the swordsmen are these cool designs, the pikemen stay with the 'old' designs (including the cool helmet and trident spears) and that the archers will start off as dark rangers and with heavy armour will change into the current designs.
Inspiration for possible dark rangers: Youtu.be ,including the cool looking torches of course :)
I hope you consider this,
GDA
Kay,
Was too late for editing, but I think after I rewatched all of the units that the light armour should be the ones pictured above, but with the old helmet! And then the Heavy armour would have this cool helmet and armour style.
Great job!!
However.
I do not know if it's just me!
but I think it lacks a bit of realism
Sorry for the ignorance in any requirement. You're the best , so our criticism must be the height of you!
congratulations
