Our command of the translation of Edain for Russian, received the text a month before edain exit. Made transfer to 40 percent
many translated texts weren't translated into Russian and when there was Demo the version, it is possible because of codes, there are people what could help with it? The text is translated very competently and saturated
If it is interesting, here our Russian community Edain - vk.com/edain_mod

Will you in the near future work a bit more on Arnor (especially balance issues)? I'm not saying that the faction in a whole is over/underpowered as I've not played much with it but as you said yourself, the balance standard of Arnor doesn't match other faction's and for example, Lindon Guardians deal a crazy amount of damage. ^^

EDIT: Talking about Arnor (modified it). ^^

[Elendils Cousin 3. Grades]

Are you talking about Angmar or Arnor? Because Angmar hasn't even made it into the demo^^

[TiberiusOgden]

Will you in the near future work a bit more on Arnor (especially balance issues)?

Definitely yes, they focused primarily on main four factions for Demo release. Arnor was a bit off topic.
Especially badass unit from Lindon

Hey Edain Team, will Angmar get some wraith heroes other than the Witchking? I mean, as he had a Morgul blade, and Morgul blades turn people into wraiths, it is possible that there were some 'lesser' wraiths who served the Witchking during his reign, and may have survived in Carn Dum after Angmar's destruction, as we know little of what happened there during the war of the ring. (Lotro doesn't count for canon, but there are some lesser wraiths (Cargul) ingame, as an example) So, is it possible Angmar may get some form of lesser Nazgul or something like that?

[hoho96]

As I remember, Angmar already has a Wraith hero; Karsh or Krash (I always confuse them  ) and I don't see any use for another one, as it would take away his specialty.

[ThorinsNemesis]

Its Karsh 
And I meant a hero similar in looks to the Nazgul, not Karsh; I think people stabbed by a Morgul blade would look more like the Nazgul 

Edit: Is Karsh going to remain Angmar's only wraith type hero, or can Angmar get some other lesser wraiths (victims of a Morgul blade), like the Cargul in Lord of the Rings Online? They look a bit like the Nazgul, only in red robes, but heroes like them would be a nice addition to Angmar in Edain mod 

[Azog The Defiler]

Is it just me or are the Dol Guldur orcs much smaller than the Minas Morgul orcs?
I think the Minas Morgul orcs look almost like isengards uruks.
And i thought the Dol Guldur orcs were supposed to be bigger orcs from Moria and Gundabad, and the Minas Morgul orcs, just heavily armored scum of Mordor.

And i know the problem was getting the DG orcs to not like uruks, but they have different animations and have a different colour so you can clearely separate them.

Are you going to do a campaing like RuudDevil is doing with the dwarves?

[TiberiusOgden]

Are you going to do a campaing like RuudDevil is doing with the dwarves?

Just add link, we do not know what RuudDevil is currently doing.

[hoho96]

Are you going to do a campaing like RuudDevil is doing with the dwarves?

Is he making a campaign?!
Edain already has a Dwarves campaign from older versions that needs to be fixed and adapted to 4.0, so it won't come till the later versions.
But yes there will be a campaign^^

[Adrigabbro]

In the last stream, you guys said that you were trying to reduce/remove clumping (all units being in one pixel). You probably have good reasons to do so but I'm wondering if it was not the cause of other problems like weird pathings, only a couple units in an entire bataillion actually attacking or units randomly stopping ; for instance this is quite well fixed in unofficial 2.02 where units can freely clump.

Have you thought about changing your mind? Or perhaps have you other ideas?

[Lord of Mordor]

We didn't end up changing the clumping settings because it always caused up problems. Any pathfinding problems must be coming from another source, the trouble is that it's very difficult to even find what causes such issues. It's always helpful if you report any problems that you encounter, how often they occur and so forth

[Elite KryPtik]

I don't know if this has already been mentioned elsewhere, but what's going on with the Edain mod for BFME1? Is there an English translation for that in the works?

[Elendils Cousin 3. Grades]

There is no one working on the mod any more, unfortunately. An english translation is therefore highly questionable.
