Is war truly worth the cost of lives? In my efforts and works, the plight of war always finds me. Be my work for the Free-Peoples or the Dark Lord, I find myself drawing my sword far too often for my taste. Many good Dwarves, Men, and Elves have died. Many who were dear friends. For Orcs, the worst part is not that they died, but what their comrades will do with them after they die (I am getting squeamish just talking about it...). But the point is not that, for this comes from my experiences as a soldier, fighting for the King Under the Mountain. Dethroned, my lord sought the lost kingdom of Moria. I was one of those who fought at Azanulbizar. I saw the end of Azog by the hands of Dain. (Normally, I would use the Movie Canon, due to me liking it's Azanulbizar better, but seeing as how the Mod is book based, I will go with that.) I saw the many of my fellows, fallen, and our dead beyond the count of grief. It is then that I looked up. I saw, standing amongst my fallen brothers, a banner. Torn and ragged, but still standing. Standing to bare the symbol of Durin's Folk. It is then I had hope. It is then, I knew, that we had hope. (Okay, this suggestion may seem a bit long and emotional [At least I think it was.], but what I am trying to suggest is a new mechanic for Banners. When a certain number of troops of a banner's faction are killed within it's radius, the banner's loses it's protection, and becomes torn and ragged. Could be a trophy for the victor, or a reminder for the fallen. I think it would add to immersion very well. What are your thoughts?)
