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.
Will the statues built on defense plots still reduce the cost of heroes, or will they just give leadership?
Good question
Currently it reduces the cost of heroes. We will check that. ;)
No, please don't xD
I'd prefer they actually reduce the cost of heroes. That would prevent wasting a larger buildplot on camps, which are already quite small, for statues
