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!
Morinehtar and Rómestámo, the Blue Wizards. Darkness-slayer and East-helper, respectively, their power sets will represent a battle-mage and support caster.
While they will NOT appear in any faction, they might appear in a special map. Otherwise, they'll be fully complete heroes tucked away in the 8.0 files, ready for (sub)modders to add them to their game and maps.
This is a surprise, and a pleasant one at that. Looking forward to seeing them on that map then. They look great, as always. Really excited for 8.0.
Magnificent!
Is there any chance to get the five istari in one oficial picture?
It surely be a very nice screenshot for too many!! ^^
Have a look, dear dkbluewizard :)
you are perfect, thank you for your hard work
i like Pallando's exceptionally bushy beard (i take it that he's the one on the right? lol i still call them by their old names, Alatar and Pallando)
didn't someone say the blue wizards would never be in aotr
That was the consensus until a few days ago - but it didn't feel right for the last major release to not have the Blue Wizards in some capacity. Plans change!
what's the reason to not add them to a faction like harad?
Holy fuuuuuck, seriously???!?!😃 I was in no way expecting this.
Are they gonna be a new hero summon for a faction??? How are they put in the game?
This is the best news I saw in this forum for like a veeeeery long time🤩
custom map
As In the regular skirmish maps we play on???!
Like in the Inn for some particular faction? Or...?
OMG IT'S HAPPENING
edit: I absolutely love your artistic take on them btw
They look really cool. The spear staff is very interesting.
Thanks!
This be phenomenal
Are wizards will good or bad?
For those of us who are modding ignoramuses will there be any information on how to add these units tucked away in the files to the mod itself?
What?
You mean they won’t be available in the standard release of 8.0?!?
It says in the description of the image.
Yeah, we'll post instructions somewhere. Probably our Discord.
hecking awesome!
loyal rhun, it will be fun pretending to be the people of harad, **** you saruon!
