Swords for the Rangers of the North that would have similar stats to elven weapons. They would replace the iron daggers currently used by said Rangers.

More Ranger Suggestions

I know that this is planned but i would like to make some suggestions as to how it would be implemented. First off dunedain craftsmanship was amazing it was compared to that of the elves and dwarves an example is in the way the barrow blades (forged by the men of cardolan) are described in the fellowship of the ring   . "long, leaf-shaped, and keen, of marvelous workmanship, damasked with serpent-forms in red and gold. They gleamed, ... wrought of some strange metal, light and strong, and to set with many fiery stones."[1] Whether because of protection from their black sheaths or because of the spell that lay on the Barrow mound or the alloy used to make them, "the blades seemed untouched by time, unrusted, sharp, glittering in the sun." the ranger had much closer ties to Numenor than  their gondorion cousin's so i believe their equipment should be better keep this in mind as you read.  . Repaired Ruin's: A ruined castle of old arnor partially restored by the ranger's there would be gaps in the wall held intact with fencing a horse paddock and a keep. this would be a nice addition to the faction and the only place to find a dunedain forge and hire Dunedain knight's.  . Dunedain Forge: This item can be crafted with 3 Arnorion ingot's on top the rest arnor brick with a hole in the middle. The Dunedain forge would be used to smelt the alloys of the Dunedain  <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Dunedain Knight (or arnorion knight whichever) a rare unit that wears Arnorion armor (i believe this is cannonical as i recall some mention of the rangers wearing armor into battle) they would be strictly close ranged tanks. they would not have stealth either so they would not be better just different. <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Ranger Cloth: a material made by combining leather and wool (and getting 2) on a ranger crafting table. used to create ranger armor <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Arnorion Armor: create using the traditional armor recipe with Arnorion ingots i would want it in no way to look like copy of

Concealed Arnorion Armor: crafted by placing Arnorion armor pieces with ranger pieces on the ranger crafting table there would be no Concealed helmet. this would look mostly like ranger armor with bits of Arnorion armor showing through (extending below the sleeves Etc) it would have the protection of Arnorion armor but more durability (not too much more). <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Anorion Ingot: Alloyed using silver (or iron) and Arnor brick. <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Arnorion Sword: This marvelous blade would deal 7.0 damage it would be a longsword leaf-shaped and silvery with a high durabily (as in the quote the blades were untouched by time) <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Arnorion Bow: A powerful weapon with strength akin to the bow of mirkwood crafted using one Arnorion ingot (as the clasp) 2 sticks and 3 string <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. i don not believe the rangers would use hammers or battle axes <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Tool Set; i believe that the ranger's would have their own tool set as they had to do their own work mining woodcutting farming Etc. it would be at the same level as other LotR tools and have high durability <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Ranger Ration's : A hearty travelling food crafted like bread on a ranger crafting table it would restore 4 hunger. <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Ranger Mustering: a huge collection of ranger camps where the Dunedain gather <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;"> <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:'Courier New';color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;">. Banner: i was wondering wether the banner should changed to the star of the Dunedain
