Description
'The Bounders were responsible for policing the borders of the Shire and ensuring that outsiders behaved themselves. This was known as 'beating the bounds'. The Bounders was the larger of the two branches of the Watch (the other being the twelve Shirriffs).'
In AotR, together with Took Archers and Bree-land Townsguard, the Bounders make up the basic units in Rivendell, recruited from the Eriador Encampment.

Their hats are awesome. I assume that these will be the base "swordsmen" for Rivendell... Are they the first to use clubs in this role? (The other possibly being mordor)
Anyway, they are awesome. Looking forward to the update after next!
Just assume they're cudgel infantry, basically filling the same roll
Will the Shire be a separated faction? Or are these guys recruited at the Inn?
They are in Rivendell as basic units.
Would have been nice if the Hobbits get their own faction, but I'm cool with this as well.
It would be cool. But I think this is the best we can do for Halfling representation - a whole faction would be a bit too out-of-sync with what Tolkien wrote about them.
And honestly, how many people are really going to use a faction entirely made up of Halflings? Well, outside of defeating Sauron with an army of Hobbits. XD
...I totally would.

No?

In my opinion the worst model in this game,they look like a mix between a hobo and a mobster from 1930´s
1. Hobbits wear such 19th century clothes
2. Hobbits dont wear shoes
3. This is a mod not a game :P
If this is the worst model in the mod, I think we can conclude we've done a fantastic job so far!
hobbits don´t wear shoes,Mateusz you are a genius,i wrote hobos because of their clothes btw,and Mathijs you are doing great so far that´s why i think you can do much better hobbits,that´s all
Yeah, they are hobos because their classy mobster clothes... Are you serious?
You're just associating 'hobo' with a common 70s/80s Hollywood stereotype where homeless people wore old clothes from a then-recently-bygone era (ie. the 40s and 50s).
That's just you, no reason for me to alter my design. We're basing the Hobbits' clothes on what Weta did before, and they gave Hobbits of status these sort of jackets.
