Ruins of Dale:I think that the Iron Hills should get a own unique mini-faction for Outpost.
When Dain and his army come to Erebor, Lake-Town is destroyed, many Guards of Lake-town is dead and the people from Lake-Town to settles in Ruins of Dale. This Ruins of Dale and Bard's militia could be a new mini-faction for Iron Hills. Lake-Town will remain as unique mini-faction only for Ered Luin.
Buildings have this design from films:
Central building is Ruins of marketplace with big tent.
Is it possible to build these four buildings:
-Armory (Unlocks Bard and his militia)
-Tents in ruins: (Three tents in ruins with people from Lake-Town, each of them generates resources.)
-Well (heals nearby allies and provides leadership)
-Watch tower
Bard's militia have movie design from The Battle of Five Armies:
This units have a Guard of Lake-Town as banner-carriers.
Bard's militia are cheaper and they have a little weaker armor than Lake-Town or Dale units.
Bard:Bard(Ered Luin's version) is just archer and smuggler. Bard(Iron Hills's version) is The leader of the survivors from the Lake-Town and later Lord of Dale.
Bard for Iron Hills could have a new different blue clothes from the Battle of Five Armies:
Bard have a different abilities:
Level 1: Bard's Thrush
Level 3: Toggle Weapon: switching between bow/sword
Drar is already a hero only with a bow for Iron Hills.
Level 5 (passive): The leader of the survivors
Bard leads and inspires the people of Lake-town.
Sword: Swordsmen and spearmen gets +15% armor and +15% attack
Bow: Archers gets +25% attack
This ability is replaced with a new one on Level 10 (passive): Lord of Dale:
Bard as new king leads and inspires the people of Lake-town.
Sword: Swordsmen and spearmen gets +30% armor and +30% attack
Bow: Archers gets +50% attack
Level 7: Rebuilding of Dale:
Selected building is repaired.
Level 10: Precision shots
Bard's arrows gets 3x more damage for 15 seconds.
