I have to admit that I am kinda sad and really will miss the Erebor Armor from the Movie! :(

The Arkenguard is using exactly the Erebor design of the movies.
Wouldn't it been a waste to give the veterans of Khazad-Dûm the same armor as the Erebor faction instead of giving them an unqiue design to represent Khazad-Dûm as it is written: an own dwarven realm?
Personally i think the Veterans of Khazad-Dûm shouldn't look like the other realms to symbolize their special position in the faction. Remember that each realm has access to the Veterans of Khazad Dums. Would it not seem strange when the Iron Hills getting their heroic unit with Erebor design and the realm of Erebor getting their heroic unit with Erebor design too?

Agreed there!You have found excellent decision!I remember many fans wanted different look for Each Kingdom but I think this way is better! :-)

All I said is that I liked the the previous model because it was good but I like the new one just as much!Please don't misunderstand me! :-)

I am glad to hear it! :-) And honesty I can't find something to criticize in this Model! The quality is on Max the Details are awesome but as most Edain Models I miss them all since they are really great! :-)

Greetings! :-)

My Lord Dain you actually have a point but the erebor armor is maybe a bit out of place because it comes out of the depths of the Kazad Dum and not erebor. But i think it would be nice to see both armors perhaps a random trigger: once in time golden, once in time silver when the veterans arrive on the map. (If it is possible i don't now a thing about modding) This was supposed to be a reply to LordDainOfIronHills

Of course I agree that the Armor was somewhat out of place ! I just meant that I will miss that cool AUJ Armor that's all! :-)
Otherwise I love the new look! :-)

I will miss the old veteran model, I will miss the even older veteran models and I will miss the old models of Ered Luin and the Iron Hills.
Nonetheless I really like all the new designs.

Pretty amazing! :)
I must admit that personaly I will need some time to used on this new models, because I have played so many games with old veterans. :)
I really like details, beard is amazing, its shape and color are correlated with experience of these old warriors. Great job guys!
Personally I just don't like why you choose yellow as one of colors. With your last update I correlate yellow with Erebor, mainly because its wealth.
I would more like to see somekind of white or white-gray (correlated with wealth of Khazad dum, mithril) instead of yellow color on these models. Have you thought about that guys?
With this yellow they are similar in one way to arkenguard. I say in one way, ofc they are different in general.
Is that little horn on their belt? Does it have some usage or it is more as decoration? :)
Sum, nice job as always. ;)

PS. New sword in weapons arsenal. Does this mean that now we will have 4 weapons as choice on these fighters? What are sword's properties? :)

Best regards,
CragLord

As a representative of Khazad-Dum, I approve this bad-*** suit of armour and weapons, a great new look for my deadly kin.
Officially Approved by the Dwarves of Khazad-Dum !!!

It's more about the armour (which looks awesome), colours can be changed if they do not suit, the armour and weapons are what matter most.
