Hello to all!
First of all I want to say that I am realyl surpires by this new Addition to the Iron Hills and it is a really pleasent surprise indeed!
I am glad thatthe Team took uner consideration one of our best ideas and most popular Threads on MU and used in some way,to me it means really a lot and want to thank Ealenril and his Team about this sign of respect adn interest in English Community!
Now for the feedback about this update!
I wanted to ask is there any chance of Orocarni pressence in anyway possivble!?just out of curiosity!
So while I can say the Shield of the Units are awesome with sch great detail,they are masterpieces indeed,but I must say they do not seem to be coneptual correct for me at least!What I mean is that they have Dragon Symbol on them,while the Symbol of a Shield is supposed to be the Crest of the Kingdom or the Crest of the House of the Leader,or basically something connected with the representation of a Faction or Sub-Faction while the Dragon is clearly the most bitter Enemy of those Dwarves not something they would proudly wear as an isignia on their Shields!
So I would suggest the use ofthe this Shield but with more Grey Colors thant Brown as it is there!
Now the use of the Purple Color is nice I like how it intereacts with Iron Hills and how sets Ered Mithrin apart from the other 3 Dwarven Kigndoms!
But I must say the Units themselves doesnt strike as heavily armored as they need to be for a MOnster Fighters and even more for warriors fighting Drakes/Dragons!I think they deserves a little bit more Heavy Armor,because the way they seem to is that Gondor Soldiers have more Heavy Armor than the Dwarves!?
But I must say over all I love the look of those Dwarves based on the Old Veterans(I alwasy thought they were perfect to represnt Ered Mithrin) and they look really cool in terms of Detail!
Also I do not see so Dwarvish and Fitting the Weapon Morning Star,it just doesnt seem right to my understandings of Dwarven Armament but then again this is only my personal preferences so I hope no one will missunderstand me!
Now the thing that bothers me the most is that Iron Hills will be a Hero short,while I like the Great Catapult idea ,I do not see it apropriate for the Dwarves no matter how expirienced Veterans are they to act as Group or Organisation/Colony without a Leader or maintain Order without One!!It just doesnt fill Logical to me!
And plus it will leave Iron Hills really at dissadvantage to most factions who has so many Heroes and even Ered Luin which hase more(in a way) and they all get good boosts!!!
I really think there should be somehow of a Hero may be without Unit Support Abilities but Rather Anti-Monster Abilities only for himself but I deffinetly thing they Should have one!
The Building itself looks really nice,representign Unique feeling from Ered Mithrin,but it kinda doesnt looks as abig enough to be an Outpost,it is more like Camp similar to Rohan but without the Captains!
I really love the Spear Throwers and over all al lthe Abilities of the Units,they are fitting for their roles as Monster Fighters and represent it very well as well as their Status as Veterans in what they do!
But over all I really like the idea of Ered Mithrin,it will absolutely make Iron Hills more interesting and unique comapred to Erebor and Ered Luin and even more Dwarvish!
I am glad that the Team deiced to make them and make them in that awesome looking way!So in the end I want to just say awesome work Edain Team and I am more than happy to see this in the Mod in future,all you have to do is just continue the great work as always and it will payback to you without a doubt!
Greetings from the lonely Lord of the Iron Hills!
