LordofLustria wrote: The court of the fountain is guarded by an elite company of warriors known as the Guards of the Citadel. Bound to defend the fountain court they will stay at their posts, even as the city burns around them. Their mithril helms are crowned with the white feathers of seabirds, their ash-shafted spears are stout and strong, swords hang at their belts, feathers lie about their tips. Far in the east, the temples of Melkor are defended by an equally great force. The Temple Sentinels were dragonscale mail, their blades are golden and their spears long. They will defend their temple or die in the attempt.

The lotr mod already has the tower guards of Gondor but they are pretty weak compared to their counterparts: the golden easterlings. In the lore they are described as being the greatest warriors in gondor, stronger even than the knights of Dol Amroth. I propose that either a new unit called the Citadel Guards or revamp the already existing tower guards to make them stronger and higher health. They should be able to kill a Black Uruk pretty easily in a dual but be one of the most expensive units in the game and only spawning in very few numbers. The hilts of their swords are crowned with white feathers. If you manage to get past their pikes (no mean feat even for the greatest of warriors) you must still face their veiled faces, Mithril armour and dwarven blades. They use the already existing feathered helmets

To compensate there should be an evil variant. The Sentinels of Melkor are a holy and uncommon warrior, revealed among their peers. Their spears are headed with the snarling maw of a dragon, it’s jaws open wide with anger. Their swords have a slit in the center, perfect at trapping the blade of an enemy. With armour crafted in the eastern forges of the dwarves they have no need for shields, such is the hardness of their dragon-mail and their battle prowess.

The citadel guards and the tower guards are two things. and are you sure this is canon?
