Lazy, lazy... Wow, that would have saved you so much time if you had associated resources with armors and weapons, and let the game auto-calculate unit resource costs! But if you did it the hard way, I can too. Or more likely, I'll write a program to autogen unit files in the correct format, by merging the base unit costs with the armor costs (that I will put in armor files in my own proprietary format ).

Another thing I'd like to add is magic site descriptions - that would be fun=) If/when magic sites become moddable, I think there's already a text field in the sites that I can fill in=) That would be a lot of work, though!

Well, Cherry chan. I'm glad you are planning some modding, it would be boring if we did enable modding and no one made a mod anyway.

Hopefully it'll make things easier for you guys, too

Cherry, can you give me a detailed instructions on how to change unit stats? I want to boost up Niefel giants a bit.

[Saber Cherry]

No

You have to wait for patch 1; modding is not yet supported=)

[Joonie73]

Cherry, I wouldn't trust your mods though. Your suggested mod for AOWSM was crazy

the mod tools MUST SUPPORT to disable any spells! A tolkien mod with spells makes no sense for example.

Gandalf cast a fireball in the Hobbit and the Witch King casting darkness would be ok by my reading. However there is very little overt magic in Middle Earth and if I put a mod together it will reflect this one way or another - quite possibly by not giving most nations mages. There will be very few magic Users (Some Elves, Gandalf, Sauron, Saruman, the Witch King and a handful of others - and they will primarily be casting ritual spells.

Good to hear people are interested. I wouldn't be suprised if we see as few Tolkien mods over time.
