In this video I'm controlling a new modded faction - Harad - while also letting an AI-ally control the same faction - the enemy will be another new modded faction named Pinnath Gelin - essentially Dol'Amroth - a province of Gondor. I was going to control the heroes but this episode ended already after 30 minutes which was unexpected as the previous one took 1h 43 minutes to finish - the difference now is that both AI-players are using the "Balanced Army"-difficulty while in the previous one they used the defensive for Rohan and the Rush for Isengard!

I'm still previewing things in the mod and the video ends just when I'm about to use the heroes.

The models of this mod have better textures than in the vanilla game, but they are still old-school models - so I'd say the troops of Rohan do look better than in the original but worse than in any modern modification with new models. Isengard on the other hand looks worse than in the original because they have book-based models and no longer is using the movie-styled models of the original - while th new models may have better textures I just dislike the change in their style - as I always thought the Isengard faction was the most bad-ass looking and with the models being different I no longer find them the most badass faction in this mod. The creator has done awesome work on other factions though like Harad, Lorien, Imladris, Erebor, Dol Amroth etc - I just think that his orcs are worse.

Orcs - not the Goblins - the Goblin units on the maps do look much better here than in the Edain mod in my opinion.

Anyway,I'm not voice-commenting in this video - however I am playing a bit as the 2nd Rohan-faction building up all the 7 structures in my base and recruiting very few units but every hero - Yes, I will be actively playing as the heroes of Rohan while the computer is using armies. The computer for some reason never recruited the Rohirrim heroes.
