Dain looks amazing. I'm glad you used a mount for Dain.  :D
But I hoped that Dain gets red axe. Maybe for Erebor version?  xD

Dain transport wagon ability will be removed? If yes, maybe Balin could have this unique ability. Balin will probably drive the Dwarven Chariot in EE.  8-)

I think that hammer is very good and unique choice, because all the other mods have axe. :)

It was simply the choice to stay consistent with the movie portrayal. Which doesn't mean that we didn't like the red axe design, and that it won't appear in another place. ;)

Surely! xD
By the way - according to your banner - is new Dain's model primarily your job, or Ea, or someone else? :)

Nice design for Iron Hills Dain. I'm looking forward to seeing Erebor Dain. Will he get a boar too?

I suppose you're not gonna give us more details on the "when" of the 4.1, but do you think you will try to give us a stream before the release?

I love the design of Iron Hills Dain, and it's great that you chose to give him the hammer - I know it's not lore accurate, but it looks so much better than his red axe, in my opinion  :P
I'm looking forward to see the design of King Dain for the Erebor faction; I hope he has his hammer, too xD

I warmly second Balin's ram chariot! It would be amazing
Please if you do make the chariot for the mod I'd suggest for it to support some three heroes inside and, if possible, for any bow heroes be allowed to shoot arrows while the chariot moves :D

A bit off-topic

I think Drar should have a scout aspect in addition to being a building saboteur as said in this thread: http://en.modding-union.com/index.php/topic,30866.0.html

Any chance the ravens are back as scout? I loved them and thought they were so creative, even though you state they were removed for being op. Also I really dislike the idea of Bilbo being the scout for all three dwarven faction, primarily if you're putting old Bilbo in, IMHO it doesn't make sense. Any chance Carc & Co appear in a different way maybe if it is not possible as scouts?

I second King Dáin Erebor hero with this amazing red axe, grey beard and grey boar:

I also believe Dáin should not be a hero supporter, but mass slayer and only unit supporter.

P.S. I'm sorry I didn't find the spoiler button, I'm an idiot.

Hilda Bianca from the Lake Town can solve this issue. :P

Yupp, Dains model and texture are from me. ^^
Ea managed the rigging and implementing though.

Dáin's BOTFA concept is really well-made and it naturally deserved to be included in the Edain Mod  :)
I personally find him the most interesting dwarven character and it will be very enjoyable to play with; and this comes from someone that has rarely played with the Dwarves in Edain Mod 3.8.1.
 
Its rendition is perfect, very Edain Mod style :)

I am happy to hear about the Dwarves and that they are coming soon!!But I really hoep that the Team will integrate more movie designs for them especially Erebor and Iron Hills!!
About the Dain skin well perfect is the correct word there I am in love with his looks but is ti possible to somehow be able to play him without the helmet!?
And I cant wait to see the King Dain of Erebor I hope he will wear the Raven Armor,but for One I am 100% sure he will lookc no less epic than Lord Dain and will have great detail and graphics! :)

Dear Edain followers,

A little step for me and you but a great one for the community!:

Imagine dwarven spearmen which would have a little bash bonus (like horsemen) as in the last movie where they make a bash attack with their spears after the elves jumped above them, which is quite a nice scene.
But the really important thing is: It would give dwarven spearmen a uniqueness, which would make them more fun to play and give them another strategic use (maybe they are then with bashing better against infantry, but you coul make them less effectiv against cavalary, also because they a really not the tallest which is important to fight hcavalary)!

So, I really think it would be great if this would be included here too. What do you think??

Great work concerning the models of Dain Ironfoot, cant wait for the next version to be released.

Best greetings, andulus optimus
