Orc berserkers-   In the battle of five armies, Bolg had 100 orc berserkers(known as Bolgs bodyguards) that were slightly better than regular orcs, faster, and weren’t affected by daylight (this is assumed based on the idea that they were fast), they would have better armor and gear than the regular orc, aswell as having 22 health and equal speed to an uruk or dunlending berserker, these units would be Gundabad aligned and other orc factions would not have them(other orc factions have trolls or spiders or black uruks, gundabad currently needs a new unit and they were only mentioned as bolgs bodyguards so they should only be gundabad units). These would be expensive units, equal to warg riders, but a required 300 alignment.





Orc berserker warg rider- Take the orc berserker, slap it on a warg, boom, berserker warg rider. Very expensive, 400 alignment at least.



Moredain Champions or Lion warriors(either name or another name works): I picture these fellas as the guys that win in gladiator fights. They wear lion fur armor to signify their strength and wield strong swords. They always have the strength 2 effect so they are extra strong, these guys aren’t extremely overpowered, at 25 health their armor makes it fair, these guys would wield moredain battleaxes, but not daggers. These troops would be weaker than a swan knight and about equivalent to an uruk-hai, since they are equivalent to an uruk-hai they should cost similar amounts.



Haradrim assassin (Hasharii)- I believe this has been suggested before, so I wont go into details, wears haradrim robe, better than haradrim, have assassin abilities.



Ok, don’t worry good guys, I have some ideas for you too-





Rohirim spearmen-   Rohirim often carried spears to battle, this unit would be similar to the gondorian tower-guards, however they would ride horses and have rohirim gear instead of gondorian, these horses should not be as fast as the warriors horses, because it is hard to throw a spear on a fast moving horse, the AI for gondorian tower guards could be used so they could use spears for melee and for range attacks, these units would be expensive and should cost 400 alignment.





<p class="MsoNormal">Elven scout- Simply making wood elven scouts but for Lothlorien and Lindon, they would teleport but possibly make them a bit more costly, and maybe make elven robes instead of scout armor, these robes wouldn’t give speed but would be made of wool and similar to haradrim robes, but only coming in dark blue(high elven) and golden/yellow(lothlorien) variants. Or they could just wear elven scout armor.

<p class="MsoNormal">Silver, gold and mithril trimmed dwarf warriors- These would just be for looks, equal stats to the dwarf warriors, but there wouldn’t be trimmed armor warrior banner bearers or boar riders or axe throwers, this would make for a colorful dwarf army and give dwarves a bit more variety. These would cost more than regular dwarf warriors because they are pretty, however they would still have the same stats. These would not spawn naturally, they have to be hired to obtain them.

<p class="MsoNormal">I chose new ranks for these factions because they only had the basic warrior, archer, cavalry, archer cavalry and banner bearer, and they need new troops to add some spice to the game and because I feel bad for the factions that only have those basic troops(gundabad, dwarves, rohan, haradrim, elves and moredain) Half trolls don’t have special troops, but they ride firkin rhinos and are giant. Rohan does have super fast horses and elves do have troops that can use bows and swords, but these factions are the most basic(in my opinion) and I know it makes people happy to see that their faction receives a new unit. I am usually a dunlending so the last update made me happy because we got dunlending axe throwers and dunlending berserkers, so I definitely think some new troops would be in order, if not these, that’s fine, I know Mevans is very creative and can come up with others too. <ac_metadata title="Some new troops!"> </ac_metadata>
