Good Day!

I'm here to talk about the lore and gameplay conundrum that stems from Beacon Towers and Tower Guards.

1) The unrealistically tiny Gondor Turrets which spawn throughout the Kingdom ought to be replaced with what is currently known as a Beacon Tower, which would be simply renamed to a "Gondor Watchtower". Instead of being manned by Tower Guards, these would now have 1-3 man garrison of Gondor Soldiers and Archers, like their Dalish counterparts.

2) Now I know several suggestions have already proposed replacing Tower Guards with Citadel Guards, or something of the like. If it be acceptable, I'd like to offer my take on the subject. Tower Guards would be removed, and replaced with Citadel Guards, which would be equipped with 7-damage Cidatel Pikes and Swords, and would have 30 health. I am also happy to provide textures for these weapons, and a unique set of armour if need be. Remember, these elite soldiers, along with the Swan Knights of Dol Amroth were probably the best Mannish soldiers around during the War of the Ring.

You're probably thinking "Oh great, another powerful unit for Gondor players to spam in their armies". 'BUT WAIT. 'Citadel Guards would only be obtainable via the completion of a difficult mini-quest, offered only by Gondorian Captains(and possibly their fiefdom counterparts). This quest would be along the lines of the current "Numenorean Lineage/Kill 80-90 spawn of Mordor" quest currently in the game, but perhaps with the kill quota a bit higher. This would result in a difficult little quest, with a unique and rewarding unit to be gained from it.

Citadel Guards could also spawn very rarely in the Pelennor Fields biome.
