The Battle for Middle-earth has just begun! The Edain Mod returns to the classic gameplay of the first Battle for Middle-earth, reimagined with countless new heroes, units and abilities. Journey deeper into Tolkien's world than ever before, relive the movies through meticulously crafted visuals and forge your path to victory in epic strategic battles. Follow your destiny... Middle-earth awaits.
In the next Edain patch 4.5 the defense buildplots have been improved. Every faction has now the possibility besides the battletower to build a second special building on these plots.
Rohan, Gondor, Rivendell and the Dwarves can build a heroic statue (camp maps). Mordor can build a Banner, which improves the recruitment speed of recruiting buildings in the near. Isengart has the possibility to build a warg sentry, which isn't any longer available at the big buildplots. And Angmar can build some Obelisk, which reduces the armor and damage of nearby enemy troops.
With these changes we hope to incorporate a little more diversity in the siege system.
Looking good! :)
so edain team lowered the number of defense towers now ? :( because people were complaining about defense towers' power like it was invincible... or can we build buff statues + defense towers from defense building spots now ?
otherwise it is really nice
The description makes it fairly clear. The defence plots now have 2 buildings available to build. In the case of Rohan you can build either a heroic statue or a defence tower. This doesn't reduce the number of towers you can have though, so as Rohan you can still have 7 towers around your camp
Will Lothlorien have anything new? Their camps don't have buildable defences at all. Just the guys at the 'bridges'. Which are quite effective but still.
