F.A.M.G news

On the forums we have had a poll called F.A.M.G, it was a poll to decide to reveal Lone Wolf's 15th faction, In fact Erk has already started to work on it, the work is already at 50%, most of the spell book is done, about 50% of all the units have been made, most of them are coded, the

buildings are still in work, the upgrades have been coded too as has the heroes and even the AI

has been done extremly well up to 90%.

The faction is Arnor, Arnor is the shortened name, the full name is "The Lost Kingdom of Arnor".

It is based on the surviving Dunedain and their struggles to rebuild and survive. This is because

of the low population at the end of War of the Ring. Arnor was chosen because the Dunedain

doesn't fit in anywhere else. They were previously with the Shire, but the the Shire was already

a full fledged faction without them. The Shire will gain a few new units to replace the "deleted"

Dunedain.
Arnor will be a new unique faction unlike the other factions or any factions of any other mods.

They will not use hordes but solo units, this is because of the low population of the Dunedain at

the end of War of the Ring. These units will be rather strong and equivalent of a horde, you

could almost say it's a faction consisting of mini heroes. Arnor is a stealth-based faction,

they are going to be the ultimate stealth warriors. Most of Arnor's units won't be too expensive

but there will be limits. Same goes for strengt, we don't want a bunch of "beefed mini-gandalfs"

Arnor will not be released with the rest of the mod, when finished it will be part of a sequel.
