The Black Numenorians should be rare, but very good, you would have to find them wandering the haradrim, or the Umbarians, it would not announce their arrival, but they would attack a person If they were not good with haradrim or Umbar. The Black Numenorians would rarely be found at bars, but in the back. the onse found in bars would not attack untill you did, but would be in the corner. the could be hired from a black numenorian Lord, either found in conference with a haradrim Lord, an Umbarian Lord, Or a Black Numenorian camp, which leads me to my next suggustion.

A Black numenorian Camp: this camp should be like a ranger camp, but with black cloth. the numenorians would have one larger tent, which would house a black numenorian Lord. he would not attack you, and would sell troops at ranger prices. one helmet of a black numenorian set would be in a chest. so thats where his helmet went! :P

Rangers should rarely be found in bars as well, and not attack evil players, unless they attack.

also, there should not be morgul torches in Umbar... they are not getting major exports from Mordor. I don't think the most advanced civilization in Middle-earth would be living in tents and bars...

I happen to think that it would make less work for Mevans if the Black Númenoreans and Umbar were the same faction, which is the reason why they are not separate. In any case, where would you put this Black Númenorean faction, hmm? Umbar is the only place where they would blend right in.

I happen to think it's quite reasonable to assume that Umbar would have had Morgul Torches if Gulduril(which if you see the Misc section now spawns in Umbar) spawned there. They may not be getting exports from Mordor, but I'm reasonably sure that they can mine for themselves. I have always felt like they might have had settlements to the south west of the Mountains.
