Nafârati Marauders image - Age of the Ring mod for Battle for Middle-earth II: Rise of the Witch King
11 unique factions full of new heroes, spells, and abilities. Hundreds of new maps. A brand-new campaign. A thoroughly reworked and expanded War of the Ring mode - and much more!
'When Caran-Lambar, the young and mighty chief of a prominent Nafârati tribe, heard the rumor of an evil presence stirring in the distant southern wastes he gathered a band of his greatest warriors and set forth on a heroic quest to root it out.
Contrary to the great fortunes foretold by the totemics of Nafârat, the brave chief's efforts turned to disaster when he and his companions walked headlong into the fell sorcery of the Golden King, where no martial prowess could avail them. They were ensnared, corrupted, and set against their former allies and homes, being the mighty vanguard of the Golden King's forceful subjugation of Haradwaith.'
YIBAMBE!
Love them.
Big boys, big weapons.
So Cool Units. I think they are very strong.
they look like the type of people who would destroy you as well as roll da best joint ever!!! like I know they eat jerk chicken on a Sunday.
Please tell me that you guys got Africans to do the voices...
Are they the Half-Trolls with white eyes and red tongues???
Yes, they're not literal Men crossed with Trolls; rather they are Men of Troll-like stature twisted and corrupted by the Golden King's magic.
I love your logic more than what most Fandoms used to claim that usually created none existent racial controversy.
Great job 👍
did you then just reskin the snow trolls?
For the Nafârati Marauders? Of course not, they're completely new models.
Do these look like reskinned snow-trolls?
lmao what the hell
So, they are big as the Beornings Berserkers? (I love those mf).
I think most of us expected the half-trolls to be literally half men and half troll. But now I am glad to see I was wrong, love the design, but most love the idea about the whole faction.
Personally like those factions with "micro" factions inside, like the men of Rhun in Mordor, or the people of Eriador in Imladris, and this one looks like a mix of multiple (subjugated) micro-armies.
They're as big, if not slightly bigger than the Beornings! We want Haradwaith to be a very diverse faction made up of lots of cultures to open up different gameplay choices.
crush and pass
i love this adaptation of african race implemented to LOTR wise
Yibambe!
Love the Afro-Aztec inspiration
This is the best tribal unit i ever seen in a rts game.
Also i never thought i would see a macuahuitl in LOTR ;D
Absolutely love the concept ideas behind these units and their hero Caran-Lambar. You've found a very cool way to portray the "white-eyed" black characters respecting the basic Tolkenian lore (thus making them specific of very exotic location) and still making them originally a benign civilization that fell to corruption after being forcefully twisted by a superior evil power. It also adds a bitter/sad element for their lost and likely forgotten (by Gondorians) cause.
Really good job here.
