Hey all - new to the forums and Edain in general.
So, a while ago I tried playing Edain - and I thought I didn't like it because of the built plots. This system was new to me as I only played the original Battle for Middle Earth: Two and the ''official community'' patches. I was so used to the build scenario that I really struggled to adapt to a completely different play-style.
However, recently (in the last few days) I decided to try it again and actually give it an attempt. I admit that the first time I tested it, I briefed over the factions and eventually raged quit because I was reading all the abilities and functions for half the game while getting pummeled by Easy AI. (Yes). There is so much that it just overwhelms me, (of course in a good way).
Now? I believe I have gotten over the built - plot mechanic as I am so amazed at the current build. I am still analyzing all the abilities and powers but the modification is so rich. The amount of work the developers have put in is quite astonishing. I love it so far, and haven't noticed any issues what so ever (apart from the under-tuning and over-tuning of some aspects of the game.
Just wanted to give my thanks of this modification expansion.
Also, I don't see much point in creating a new topic for a quick question - but I've noticed some things have ''hidden abilities''. Example - if you have Sauron with the One Ring and he is level ten, if you press "S", he legitimately gains triple movement speed, damage and faster weapon swing. I am unsure if this is intended. Would using this in competitive play be frowned upon?
Thanks in advance!
Kind Regards!
