Greetings, Companions of the Edain!
As you could see over the course of the last week, there will be quite a few changes to the look of the Kingdom of Gondor in the upcoming version 4.7. In fact, in addition to the conceptual changes to Faramir or the Guardians of the Fountain Court, almost all units and buildings have received a visual overhaul by now, which is why we want to give you an overview.
Back in the beta for the original 4.0, when the transition was made from the free build system to fixed buildplots, Gondor was the first faction to finish its overhaul. Many of the designs dated back to the original Battle for Middle-earth I, which gave the Gondor stronghold an iconic and easily recognisable look, but also left something to desire after all these years. So, since version 4.6 also implemented the Misty Mountains in the fixed buildplot system, the last of the old races to do so, it seemed to us that the time had come to polish up the somewhat ageing gondor models.
Attentive observers will certainly have noticed the many decorations, ornaments or even secrets that are hidden in the new models - starting with the infantry's armour, which becomes visible as the level of the barracks increases, to the palantir used by Denethor in the top of the new citadel, to some archers on the upper floor of the new shooting range that are in suspiciously high spirits. And the model of the old BfME 2 fortress has also been replaced, so that the border fortress of Dol Amroth now truly looks like a bulwark of the knights and soldiers under the command of Imrahil.
Last but not least, many buttons and icons were replaced and improved. They can mostly be found in the spellbook:
That being said, we did not stop there: the sister kingdom of Gondor also benefits from the new models. Arnor, which replaces Gondor on many maps that are located in the north of Middle-earth, not only adopts many of the new building models such as for the quarry, the citadels or the marketplace, but also comes up with its own architectural qualities. They impress with rounder shapes, especially on their roofs - but at this point we'll just let the pictures do the talking:
Glorfindel and his Wind Riders on the hunt for the Witch-King
Soldiers of Rhudaur
Soldiers of Cardolan
We hope you liked this overview of the visual overhaul of Gondor and Arnor and are, as always, looking forward to your feedback!

Sorry to disturb you but I have been playing edain mod for 2 years now with my brothers and for 1 month I have not been able to play it again. My two computers give the same "Player_Skill_Points_Delta_Medium" error.
I thought it was because of the 2.02 (something I removed a long time ago.) However when I put the 2.01 back I got an error where you have to insert the CD and I really don't know why! I have already uninstalled/installed everything etc.
Take a look:

All good here thx ;)
Well, the answer for people like the guy who is complaining because the game is too difficult, is this:
Be polite with the community
Be a better player
If not, then,
Get out
I came here to express my frustration, First of all Edain team u are remarkable and i thank you for all immense effort, passion will and time invested i have only one complain extreme unbalance which is near impossible to do but these patehetic Gondor men of the West they only win because of the most BS unfair power even to exisgt armt of the dead completely invulnerable bs moves fast wiped out my entire rank 5 fully maxed Uruk army nothing i could do heal Ugluk runned like an idiot wakaned severely Gondor army came finished me, this is total BS, that spell has to be removed its crap it ws crap in movie its even worse here, men cannot win otherwise they need to resort to some retardation end of rant, U need to take a look at some of the powers they are breaking game balance insanely bad. Also I play on WIndows 11 game is unstable somewtimes it auto kicks me to desktop, crashes without any error or delay just kicks me ,sometimes it happpens after 20 mijn sometimes i can play for 2 hours without issues ir forces me to save often
Scatter your forces so all of the death are chasing one unit to the edge of the map.
They only last for a short moment. So it is balanced imo.
Well, be a better player. If you got that trouble, find how to counter it. Saruman is a great option vs army of the dead. His wizard blast, thunder bolt and even his voice can outrun that power.
Also keep in mind: when Isengard was unleashed, all the army was defeated because all of them were at the same spot... ;)
wow that looks great guys, love the change with new citadel
Wow what a great day to be alive. So proud of all the work you guys do. Special thanks to Lord Ellessar for these and whoever else worked on them. Dol Amroth looks stunning. Thank you for bringing glory to one of my favorite factions.
Greetings Edain Team!
The models are just so perfect and I can't wait for you to post new mod version. Please do hurry up!🙃
