Well I don’t really play any video games besides Minecraft. So I’m not really sure. With regards to the examples you listed:

>I don’t know any Elvish languages except a few words. I’m not sure about “Eldarinwe” but the Eldar are a larger group of Elves than just Rivendell. The mod needs to distinguish Rivendell from Lindon (also Eldar) so the name should stay Rivendell (or perhaps Imladris). Not all of them are swordsmen - they use spears, battlestaffs, and more and all of them use bows. So I’d keep Rivendell Warrior.

>Gondor infantry may be more accurate than Gondor soldier as there is also cavalry. However I kinda like soldier as it sounds like a person you have hired, rather than infantry which sounds like a pawn to expend. It’s more human. But either one would work.

>Units shouldn’t be named Orc Bands, as they are hired individually. Also their faction needs to be specified, so Mordor Orc is the most logical. Orc bands make sense and orcs do spawn in groups but calling each hired unit an orc band would be weird. If you are proposing hiring them in groups (which could make sense), something like Mordor Orc Band would be fine.

Maybe there are some good names, but this is its own game and I don’t see the need to try to make it into another game without adding anything valuable to gameplay. There isn’t much point.
