Gundabad subfaction of the Misty Mountains

<< < (2/7) > >>

bookworm1138:
i don't know: movie Gundabad looked too thin and empty. like it was just a bunch of angular, wedge-shaped spires overlaid with scrap metal (like the EVERYTHING-MUST-BE-IRON Horde from World of Warcraft: Warlord of Draenor). i know it's just the eastern gate, but it still looks wimpy compared to the Morannon, which was made by Gondorians at the height of their power, with the sharp, pointy "Iron Horde" additions made later by Sauron.

if we're going for any kind of fortress (personally, since its up in the north, i always saw Gundabad as just being a cold, ultimate North wasteland with orc camps, maybe some ancient Dwarven ruins, but no large fortresses or anything resembling civilization), then maybe something Dwarvish and ancient, since it was a meeting place for the Seven Houses of the Dwarves, but with the iron on top of that.

ThorinsNemesis:
It looks too flat only from that side of view I think. It's probably larger than it looks (since it was a Dwarvish place maybe its halls go beneath the ground, and the metal shapes were a guardpost or something). And since the Moria subfaction already has Dwarvish ruins, maybe the Team will want to make Gundabad unique, so the movie version is an option in my opinion.  ;)
By the way, I thought the Black Gate was built by Sauron in the Second Age  :o

hoho96:
I'm also not a big fan of Gundabad in the movie. However maybe the general theme could be applied to their buildings without pushing the in-my-opinion horrible fortress from the movie.

Btw before the Black Gate thing goes any further;
The Black Gate was first built by Sauron using the power of the ring. After the last alliance Gondor sat up the watch on Mordor and redirected the Gate's defence to face inwards (probably added some forts here and there also).

Ealendril der Dunkle:
We are satisfied with the current design of the gundabad subfaction. So there is no need to change anything, because i agree with hoho's opinion:

--- Zitat ---I'm also not a big fan of Gundabad in the movie.
--- Ende Zitat ---

ThorinsNemesis:
Oh well, I like the movie looks of Gundabad, but if you guys think the current look is better then probably it is.  8-|
A bit off topic, but in which Misty Mountains subfaction are Smaug and the Defiler going to be?
