The new Greco-Rome-Persian feel is a refreshing look to the Alcohol Anonymous
"Hi my name is Gimilkad and i am an alcoholic" :)
I personally don't know about the new look, of the Abrazanim especially. I preferred the old one with the masked helmets and lamellar.
@@CommNenos the 300 look, yea that looked cool too
Greco-Rome-Persian
yah, i think it gets at that numinor “ancient fallen civilization” feel well.
Nothing better than your faction overviews. Always entertaining, fun, interesting and helpful to master a faction!
You speaking and explaining without a proper script creates the impression of a narration or sort of a conversation between friends. And after all, it helps a lot to improve my English skills.
I remember the good old times back when i couldn't align a proper sentence and my head would hurt after listening to an 1h+ of game commentary... youtube unironically allowed me to master english. It took about a year or so but worth it, keep up with the good work mate!
The best way to learn languages is to just do what you like in your native language!
POUGET Guillaume Yeah, it helps immensely, especially when you had only two years of English in school because you preferred French, Latin and Italian.😂
krzy6886 You are so right! That’s why I always recommend my pupils to watch their favourite shows in French. 😁
As a general rule if a settlement has a Unique building (e.g. Tower of Ecthellion, Bridge of Tharbad, The Hornburg, Golden Hall of Meduseld) you can get the Royal Guard/Knights out of it. Hilariously this includes The Prancing Pony in Bree.
I can see it now, the proud legions of the south, the heirs of Ar-Pharazôn
, clad in resplendent black and gold plate... marching down to some run down, rain-soaked inn for a pint. One has to wonder how they drink so well with those masks on.
@@tartytart7560 one of them is just Titus Pullo from HBO Rome lol
Maybe instead of "requires various", just put "require dunedain heritage locations" or something similar, it would mean we have to figure it out ourselves but with a solid hint, adds a bit of immersion
42:46 I, for one, absolutely *love* the new Royal Guard look. Aside from the excellent detail of the armor model, I think it works well for the natural theme of the AA elites: reflecting the old Numenorean armies. The gold-and-black color scheme, plus the mask, just gives that perfect combination of imposing, awe-inspiring, and yet dark. A perfect reflection of the glory of Numenorean arms at the height of their power, yet still clearly showing the shadow that was falling over the island.
Sorry for the OC question, but don't you feel a bit sorry for the fate and the story of the numenoreans, that have rejected their elven friendship, have been betrayed by sauron, and then be hated by their Brothers (Dunedain) and Sauron. I don't know but i kinda wished they didn't betray the Elves and remained loyal to the fate of Numenor.
It's like everything a moral message from Tolkien. The King's Men were poisoned by deep hatred and a feeling of superiority, and it's been going on for thousands of years. Ethnic conflicts are tough enough to solve after just decades, but millenia? I don't know what could heal the rift in the end.
I am always so impressed and pleased with how you truly try to pronounce things properly.
It is a shame that the vast majority of lets players (and of other video categories) on the internet can spend up to a hundred hours in a game, and still keep making excuses for why they dont know how something is pronounced. It literally takes a minute at most, and then you've learnt how to pronounce something, for the rest of your entire corporeal life. If that isnt a cheap price to pay for knowledge, i dont know what is.
1 minute to learn something, or 100 hours of _"uh or however u wanna say it heh i dont know sorry im terrible"._ And i'm just scratching my head every time, _"No, its not 'however you want to say it', that isnt how language works. Why not just learn it, alt tab right now and look it up?"_
Thank you, for making an effort.
Yeah and the cool thing is that Galu added the pronunciation to most of the unit descriptions
It would be wise to for all let's players to take your advice, not only for their own benefit, but the audience will also learn alongside them, and viewers may feel a bit better about themselves after watching their video knowing they've gained some knowledge. It could go a long way to keeping+gaining subscribers.
that's why as soon as a let's player says "i will not try to pronounce it" or smth like "i will butcher all the names". i wont subscribe and i wont watch them.. but these YT are mostly american, so their ignorance is inherent
@@Mordred1337 What a silly and arrogant thing to say. So you only watch lets plays because of the pronunciation? I have seen lots of non-American youtubers having trouble pronouncing these names. And why wouldn't they? Adûnaic is a foreign made up language. There are no native speakers of it. Of course people have trouble pronouncing it. i'm not native English speaker and I fully expect foreigners to have trouble pronouncing names from my language. Yet, I don't demand that they must learn, or else.
Also I love the Ar-Adûnâim too. Their lore and asthetics are very cool. But who cares about pronouncings "correctly"? They are made up culture at the end of the day. I mean it's cool if you want to do it. But I don't think anyone "needs" to learn the correct pronounciation. I don't give a shit whether or not you want to pronounce words from my native language correctly. Languages change over time anyway. People pronounce things differently. English has a lots of different dialects and ways to pronounce things. I'm happy enough that someone likes Tolkien universe.
I hope v4 comes out in the next few Weeks, because corona keeps me home
Same
Same. Got plenty of time left now
Who's Corona? Is she your wife?
The double line for buildings can be avaided by carefully coding. The keyword to use is "not". It would be something like culture increase if not barren and a separate line culture increase if barren. Or the different way, as you do know what hidden ressource is present in every region for the design of the mod, you could just have a separte line for each level of "liked" terrain.
New AA are really great, huge improvement over old Umbar
The redesign you've given them, cannot stress this enough, is fantastic. The Romanesque theme fits so well with how the Numénoreans were in the lore, and also it just looks damn cool. Also the Azrazair Marines must be the coolest looking unit in the game.
And many unit have a visual upgrades also.
The first time I played the Ar-Adunaim, when they were first released, I sailed all the way to what used to be Lindon. The old Lindon faction had only three regions with relatively small garrisons. So, I split my army into three, attacked each town, and starved them out so that each town would rise up on the same turn. This tactic, albeit cheesy, avoided the last-stand script and killed off an entire faction in one turn around turn 15.
With the changes to Lindon (Now the High Elves), this tactic is not viable anymore, but may be more fun and less exploity. This is probably my favorite faction because of the versatility and variability of their start, and they look awesome! Great work DaC team!
Looking forward to playing v4 during a total quarantine , I hope you and the team stay healthy!
The new style of the Ar-Adûnâim looks to me like the new "Evil Roman Expedition Corps". XD
I love your extremely thought-out and unique reasonings for the factions' stats and the history/background you research and/or create in this mod.
3:08, oh look, they come from Constantinople 😁.
Mirkwood Elves faction overview, when??? I want to know what've you done with my smug boi, King Thranduil 😊
From?
Ah, King Thranduil. The smirking king of the woods in Smirkwood
@@ramsaysnow9196 yeah in the background of the unit art for the ship there's Constantinople lol
*Sneaks into the game files...*
How do you say "Sparky-sparky Boom Men" in Adunaic?
Has to be an Avatar reference... Right?
Aznal-Aznal Nurzai Narub
You have to drink cactus juice to pronounce it
It is very interesting how the units' style has developed over the years. At first, when the faction was called Umbar, the units looked very maritime, with scale armour, sea green shields, tridents and decorative fins on their helmets. Some also wore burgundy colours and there was some southern influence in the roster (camel riders). The elite units wore masks when upgraded. When the Ar-Adûnâim were introduced, the green colours were removed in favour of more black and burgundy. Some roman elements were added (plumes on some helmets), and the Ar-Adûnâim style for troops from Gondor and Dol Amroth was introduced. In this iteration of the game (see video above), the greco-roman style was fully embraced (shields, helmets, colours). Almost the entire roster was freshly painted. Now some elite units received a distinctive golden touch, which made them stand out on the battlefield. Finally, with version 5 of the game, nearly the entire roster was changed again in appearance. The new units look very ornate and have taken some inspiration from the European renaissance / late medieval period, while retaining some greco-roman elements. The only two units which remain unchanged throughout this journey are the low tier archers and raiders. Other pirate style units have been assimilated into a more uniform roster.
Why this long excursion into style, you may ask. Were I to chose my favourite roster, I would mix and match from all periods. There is no such thing as linear progress in art. Sometimes you like the style, sometimes you lament the changing of iconic units. But the artists can be proud of having created something so memorable that will be cherished by many fans of this game. Their creations, led by the players as generals, are conquering middle earth, in a way.
Thanks to the team, absolutely loving this mod! It is amazing in all possible ways. Whole concept of Ar-Adunaim is just great. It's almost funny how lore-friendly it is while being completely out of official lore. And this vibe of "true numenoreans claiming their own" is sooo good.
Playing 4.5 now, I chose default reclaim-Gondor-path and would humbly disagree with "0 difficulty level". I tried at first capture Umbar shore, ally with Harad\Mordor and start with attacking Dol Amroth and all went disastrous. When I attacked Dol Amroth, Gondor attacked me instantly. Fighting them both is really tough when you have just 4-5 regions. So I was capturing and loosing regions up to 80 turn when Mordor started to push hard and captured Osgiliath and Minas Tirith, so I gave up. Next time I ignored Umbar and sailed straight to besiege Minas Tirith, which surprisingly went much better. If you are lucky you can just wait 10 turns of siege (assault will cost a lot of men) because you have full stack and Gondor simply may not attack you. After that you need to deal with a few armies, 4 full stacks in my case. I won 2 battles, 1v1 and 1v2, then I hid in Minas Tirith and the 4th army left to fight Mordor (Gondor having 2nd enemy helps a lot). After initial cleaning it becomes much easier, you can build up Minas Tirith a bit, get nearest regions (Cair-Andros, Osgiliath, Lossarnach) and gradually advance to the west of Gondor, with enemies coming from only one side (assuming you are allies with dark factions on the east). In general, strategy of conquering Gondor from Minas Tirith is quite viable, though you'll need some luck at the beginning. Tip - I would definitely recommend to build camps immediately (because converting religion is slow and you will need new soldiers SOON), but after camps immediately to build tier 2 shrines, because you will soon need your own units also.
PS: Renamed Minas Tirith to Ar-Pharazon to remind Sauron of his old friend :)
PPS: Beruthiel's Watch is awesome. Almost over powered, though without it I think I would loose half of the battles and therefore whole campaign, so i think it quite appropriate.
For flavor reasons, I like to attack either Gondor or the ND when playing as the AA, its just too tempting not to, being the King's Men finally putting down the Faithful
Naru n'Aru Royal Guard: REQUIRES NÚMENOREAN HERITAGE.
Povilas Zemaitis aw fuck
I really enjoy your faction overview vids even when i don't play the game but the amount of lore behind this is just amazing, even if this one is more fanfic still interesting.
WOW! The Royal line is ABSOLUTELY Amazing!! Great Design! I just LOVE it. 😍
Love this faction! So much fun to roleplay 'what-if' scenarios and do as you will without the regional restrictions of Ered Luin or alliances of Khaza-dum. First time I played a bit traditional and after conquering the south I worked up the right side eliminating factions until Dale. Starting up a second envisioning a split empire. Great job on the faction.
So happy to see people still working and putting in so much effort into the game of my childhood, god bless y’all !
So need idea if you taken suggestions through TH-cam Arachir but one thing I thought of was a way to spice up The Elves of Loren. You can give them a script like Isengard to take the one ring to declare war on everyone and get a bunch of bonuses, like new units, maybe an enslavement mechanic or something too.Basically Galadriel becomes that terrible and beautiful queen that she said she would become. No idea that’s your thing or would interest people but worth a shot lol
When I played as AA I first took Umbar and then sailed with half of my Army to Tharbad and so I had two starting locations, which was pretty nice
How was your corruption and upkeep?
I always look forward to the videos, especially faction overviews, you always do great stuff man, keep it up
Really impressive. Love the lore aspects of what you’ve done with AA. Well done everyone
Yes I have been looking forward for this.
I can't wait for V4 to be released. I already have a list of factions to play and with this overview I am surely adding Ar-Ardunaim right on top of this list.
Same for me!
AA seems like a candidate for favourite faction.. Life was so much simpler when I just knew that I was gonna start as the High Elves when this came out
I was umming and erring over making this my first campaign when v4 comes out but when I saw the AA-style Gondorian troops I almost made a mess in my trousers. AA let's get it baby
So beruthiel rangers are basically dark elfs shades, nice
The "flagship" of the mod!
TheAleatoriorandom I see what you did there
Custom Adunaim themed armour for southern Dunedain units...good old hummingbird. Not all heroes wear capes
Well met indeed, I was waiting for next faction overview
I would have suggested putting that double culture effect in the intro scroll, but apparently a lot of people don't bother reading that despite the useful information it contains for new players.
Also I saw brown so I immediately guessed Dunland. I'll get it right eventually.
I am beyond happy to see you getting after it and still kicking Galu. Miss ya big Guy
All the best to you and your team, working all hard for our enjoyment! I have to say though, i kinda liked the look of the Ar-Adûnâim in version 2.2 better. I guess that's how art works, it's really subjective. Don't get me wrong, i still think they look badass. Can't wait to have a go with them.
Having my first long play with the AA and something that really stands out for me if you want to play the long game with them. As you expand you get different units from different parts of the map. This means as you expand, you're getting different types of armies to play with. This keeps things fresh over the long game. The downside is, all those experienced units you get earlier aren't great for moving to the front, because you can't retrain them in your new territories, which means a long trip back to retrain (or accept losses and merge, but that runs out eventually). I'm a big fan of keeping my experienced units on the front line, so this affects that. But, the ability to have entirely new armies as you move forward does outweigh that to keep things fresh.
Watching from South Korea. Super excited for version 4! Love your videos!
Wow! Those models looks great. Super job guys
Wooo! The Vale of Anduin! Currently playing as a Valesman in Last Days of the Third Age in Mount & Blade!
This is awesome I’m super excited for the high elves overview because Imladris was my favorite faction and I can’t wait to see their new roster
When the King's men took Mithlond, I already had a Breelander army composed of watchmen, one merchant unit and hobbits on the ready in Undertowers. I then joined on the siege of my elven allies and stormed the town from 3 sides with my full stack taking 2. I stacked the main side, closest to the town center with the armoured and buffed watchmen, meanwhile the ones without armour upgrades and the hobbits took on another side. Jesus christ they were slaughtered, I welcome the change on aesthethics on the Armsmen because, had they looked like that, I would have been more careful with my troops on that side where armsmen were present.
"they really are a backstabber faction" ah so they're milan then
Anduin have basically few group of people in their roster:
-Beornings: basically most violent and strongest group of people forming Anduin army. Good morale and decent armor and skill.
-Eotheod: most militaristic part of army- more uniform and organized than anything else. They have best armor and training from not AoR units, also good morale. They also supply your best cavarly unit, be it a archer one or melee.
-Woodsmen: they're are something inbetween Beornings and Eothed in term of armor, morale and skill, with additional flavor of them being a good in hiding. They got most of skirmishers of Anduin army, be it archers or javelinmen.
-Special ones: units which kinda not fit into any other above , mostly AoR , like Carrock Guard, Stoor units, Silvan Marchwardens , Vale Defenders or others.
I enjoyed my campaign with them very much and I was suprised how strong they were, relatively to were they start. Also, their berserker general voices are awesome and it's a shame they're changing them.
@@Gniew2
Similar thing is with Dunlendings- they're very sturdy comparing them to other Wildmen factions. Their problem lie with sparse cavarly and archer options.
Holy crap, the subjugated units look absolutely stunning. Just wonderful!
What's that badge beside your name
Starting in Mithlond was quite fun aswell and a hardcore challenge due to their last stand script :D
Loving the professional feel of the roster.
My inner Classical Antiquity fanboy is very happy. And my inner Swiss fanboy.
Loving the overviews! Just want to notify that you didn't discuss the boats, nor the setup of the AA's upkeep at the start of the game (units free, upkeep changing when you take your 1st, 2nd, 3rd settlement, etc) which imo is an AA-specfiic gameplay feature. It might be good to make a "top comment" to explain at least how the upkeep is handled, because that might not be something people will figure out by themselves when they play as the AA.
My favorite memory of AA is from the previous version before lindon was merged into the high elves, I split my army into three with spearmen, archers, a general, and halberdiers, sailed them up to all three cities in lindon besieged and sniped all the generals in lindon then quit the battles, and regicided them all in same turn, then walked into them next turn. Then I took buzra-dum and turned on the dwarves, that was a power house playthrough by turn 20ish
They look much better now.
I love that AA are essentially Romans with their style and units, even the integration system, might have to give em a spin in 4.0!
The naru n'Aru units oozes old Numenor! Love the look
Galu with an avatar the last airbender reference... I knew I loved this man
As a joke, The AA banner looks like the logo to Pirate Bay the torrent site. Seriously this all looks great! I can't wait to play them.
Where is the intro your gave Bree and Dale? I really like that start. Have a nice day, can't wait to see Anduin!
As Galu kind of said they are an extrapolation from the lore, not an actual faction of influence in this area of Middle Earth during that time. So there's nothing he could have said that is not from an earlier Age, IIRC.
There where people living in umbar, they raided the city of Tolfalas.
@@nicklasaskerod738 Those were really locals. Haradrim. Any blood of Númenor was so thin by that time among those people it might as well be nonexistent.
@@LyricalDJ it's here DAC comes in to play, but still a little story wouldn't hurt any. I'm not saying, I'm just saying.
Just had a cracking idea, one of the Nazgul could be related to the Ar-Adunaim in some way, that would be cool
That would tie them to Sauron/Mordor which isn't really the point of the AA. Although I can see that it would be cool, they would have to be allies. And to give you the 'freedom of choice' the AA are just neutral to everyone at the start.
@@crepley8335 The rest of the Nazgul were humans who are mostly against Sauron now, so what is the problem there?
@@razputin7520 The Nazgul are now bound together with Sauron. I don't think they could escape or desert him even if they wanted to. Also, there's already another faction beside Mordor who has Nazgul, Dol Goldur. It would take that extra 'spice' away from them if you create a similar thing with AA.
The AA are already quite unique, giving them Nazgul would affect their campaign, the lore behind the made up faction and their alliances/enemies which they currently do not have, thus making them more special
@@crepley8335 The Nazgul would be from a branch of them that betrayed them long ago that became the black Numenoreans loyal to Sauron.
@@crepley8335 I think you misunderstood what the original comment proposed. He did not advocate for a nazgul for AAs, he meant that one of the nazgul of mordor could have AA background, because at this time Galu is working on creating backstories for nazgul in DaC.
I still have one question what happens with the rind do we get a choice or a new script or is it still locked to deliver it to sauron?
I like to settle in Lond Daer.
Also I love the new Royal Guard :)
I suggest a new series of gameplay videos with following rule:
1.Ally with Saruman and middlemen if possible, creating a third alliance against both good and evil
2.Each general will be assigned to a faction by you, for example, if you assign a general to harad, then that general can only lead harad units out to battle (although they can defend settlement with AA or other units of course).
3.Generals of assigned faction should be taking the major role of defending their corresponding area, that is however not a must do as situations may change from time to time, if the region is no longer in danger, the general can lead their army forward to other regions, however they can still only get reinforcement from their region since that's the only place produce his units
Tharbad has 10% kingsmen culture tho apparently @5:17, that'd make it a lot more viable location
Mm, beautiful. Looking forward the version 4, but you should do it before or some time after the M&B Bannerlord is released! :D
I miss these 😢
For a moment I thought the public order explanation would be like the old civilization bug where the developers gave the different AI's representing national leaders different aggressiveness stats and gave ghengis khan the highest at between 10 and 20. And Ghandi got 0 because ghandi, but also an attribute that lowered his aggressiveness even further, but the games engine didn't do negatives so rather than go negative or stay at zero it went to the highest possible number in the tens of thousands. And hence Ghandi became the most psychotic, hyperaggressive lunatic of an AI in the game. I love those stories of bugs messing things up in unique ways ^^
Would it in the future be possible, as a Dúnedain culture, to rebuild the pillar of Umbar?
I know it would be unlikely that players with a Dúnedain Culture, would even reach Umbar before stopping playing a campaign.
I personally would found it nice, after making the effort to capture Umbar, to be able to rebuild it when you play a Dúnedain Faction.
In every DA campaign i had taken umbar
can you put the shields of the Abrazanim archers on the back? I kind of like it more
Also you should use the Adunaic form of prince Phazan
Black, red and purple color scheme for Dorwinion auxiliaries could look sick.
Loving the Faction Overviews and the hype for v4 is real ☝🏼
Could you maybe do a unit overview for all mercenary units? Since some factions might have to rely on them (Bree for example). :)
Can you rebuild the Pillar??
Oh yes i can't wait now! :-)
Challenge campaign: never take a region, kill off enemies using regicide and mercenaries
You wouldn't be able to pay for the mercs
@@hardstyle2289 just sack every region
There are no assasins in DaC and royal family members don't seem to walk out of the settlements much or at all, so you would have a hard time not taking regions.
@@hardstyle2289 you dont pay upkeep as a horde but I dont know if this extends to mercenaries, but ransoming generals and troops etc, I dont know if it would work but it would be interesting
Their theme is so cool, reminiscent of the Crusaders. It would be cool to see some more of that, like heavy cavalry with a Lance and a giant symbol on a shield...
Hi Galu, did you mention that upkeep is low until you claim a settlement? Also, after your description of how armour works, it would be fantastic if you could do a vid on mechanics like how does attack/def/AP etc work. Live your stuff 👍👍👍
Wonderful. The DAC team are aces!
It would be neat if the Númenorean factions could rebuild the Pillar in Umbar. It also be cool if the Ar-Adunaim could recruit Black Númenoreans from the temple in Durthang.
Also props for designing not just a great faction but a great game overall. Here's to greater things to come 🍻
I shall definitely try them. And most certainly I shall try and expand on different locations, each time I play them. A quite intriguing and unique idea, I may say. I look on your moddb page, but unfortunately there is no description of this faction. What was the source of inspiration for this faction?
This inspired me to start an Ardunaim campaign - while waiting for V4 - assaulting all three Lindon cities at once, sequencing the sieges so that Mithlond surrendered one turn before the others (so it became my capital, and Lindon revenge stack didn't arrive in time). Took Mithlond without a fight, defeated Forlond's last-chance sally, and Lindon was no more.
Odd though, the Harlond garrison changed from leader plus 1 unit into 5 units of rebels once Lindon was eliminated, and I didn't have enough besieging forces to win the sally-out. I took it two turns later with a larger force.
I am now revenue-neutral with about 11,000 in treasury, building dark shrine and then income improvers like marketplace.
Onward! To Annuminas? Or maybe the rich dwarven halls...
Galu. An idea for this faction. Is it possible to create a choice event in the beginning of the campaign allowing for alternative coastal start locations? such as on the coast of Enedwaith, The Blue Mountains and/or up the Anduin river or near the Argonath (if it is even possible lorewise to sail under the Osgiliath bridge or if the river is even imagined as being deep enough to allow passage of larger ships)
The way i do this is simply using the console commands but still a legit choice could make it feel less like "cheating" :-)
Will you be adding portraits to AA? They only have few.
I miss old Umbar. I think they were more lore friendly. But i see why people like the AA
This looks awesome!
I absolutely love the new look of the Ar Adunaim, will be a fun campaign, killing the usurpers of Gondor and Arnor. I'm going to miss Royal Tharbad though, it looked awesome with the bridge and regular Tharbad. Can't wait for the new version, also can't wait for the Angmar overview, to see if there is anything different.
I think Royal Guard and Household guard, Knights are beautiful, I always loved golden armored units .
Is Gimilzor’s portrait just the Hammer of Sauron from Shadow of Mordor? I replayed that game and I just noticed that rewatching the overviews, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a picture of Ratbag leading orcs too
Yes! He’s updating the overviews!!
27:26 Ah, yes, Combustion-Man
A most highly informative overview Arachir! I don't wish to be impertinent by asking, but will you be uploading any Age of Empires II games again in the near future?
Hello good sir, I would really like to see you play V4 A-A as a campaign by going to maybe Tharbad or somewhere like Annuminas. Maybe even Isengard who knows. Even if just a few episodes. The Royal Guard in Gold looks sick.
Why can I never forget the incomprehensible gibberish at the start of all your videos?
Just downloaded the mod and the first place I went to was right behind Mordor to the East. This is going to be an interesting campaign for me.
Love the look of the AA, especially the Armsman. However, since they placed so well is the sword and board ranking they are really in need of a new name suited to their prowess in battle. Ouutclassing such classic units with awesome names i.e. wardens if the white tower, Talon knights etc. They are really deserving of a similarly resounding unit name. Armsman has connotation of mid tier units.
Will it be possible to subjugate Rohan? I think they would look amazing in black & red and would be a good addition to your rooster aswell, because the only good Heavy Shock Cavalry comes from Rhun & Khand. If you choose to go to Tharbad you wouldn´t get them until you´ve already nearly conquered the whole Map :D Keep up the good work, i am loving the new Version so far :)
Its not too bad in Tharbad. You only need to rebuild the bridge. Its expensive but gives you Royal Knights, Guard and an eco boost. Its pretty good. Cav will still be rare tough
Arachîr pronunciation- on point with mastery over the spoken word
My pronunciation- escgyjkngrwqascvtyuooknbvds
Excellent. Pity there's no "Refugees", if a faction is destroyed (ie rohan) their royal line and some population move to Gondor to hide (character item?) & wait for Gondor to take back a rohan settlement. Having allies is so important. just a thought.
Could you do a full independent video on subjugation/beacon of hope units? It’s hard to know where to go for what.
i have been waiting for this my fave faction
Just a quick question. Are you planning to make Adunaim look to the othet auxiliary units in the future?
Question, I'm playing the AA, and I settled in the rebel castle at the west end of Gondor, but I can't build the auxillary outpost, is it not a Gondor region?
