The logic behind people's expectations about the colour of armour and the predominant rock for dwarven factions is alien to me anyway. They're called 'Dwarves of the Blue Mountains', not 'Blue Dwarves'! Nor is there a technically sound reasoning behing colouration of steel and some locally found rock colour, not even in a metallurgical and mineralogical sense. So, as far as I'm concerned, don't expect the 'Dwarves of the Red Mountains' to have reddish gear or even use red as the predominant colour in their banners or heraldry, unless explicitely mentioned in lore and/or if the mod team has the same silly expectations as most of the LOTRmod plebs. Considering that Mevans made Blue Mountain Dwarf armor blue, and that other armors have unrealistic colors, I would not be surprised if he made their armor and banners a reddish color unless he made the other armors more realistic.

I would be very surprised if they didn't, actually.

Grievous1138 (LOTR Mod Wiki Admin) comlink 20:11, February 11, 2018 (UTC) Yes, considering that it’s the only red mountain range in middle-Earth, you’d think they’d Lord that over everyone else or at least show it off with the redness. Perhaps they may even dye their equipment with powdered sarngaran... right! On topic!

I do agree with the whole resizing/shaping of the mountains. On shaping the world height, Mevans said somewhere on the forums or his message wall that raising the build limit would be an incredibly tedious job and very time-consuming, time he could use to create new and fancier gameplay aspects like Fellowships and Spheres of Influence.
