Major Gundabad Expansion

Elbuis·4/4/2020 in Suggestions forum

Hi guys, Gundabad is one of the least developed factions in the mod, they don't exactly have a lot going for them. We decided to attempt to change that in this suggestion, which suggests a bunch of new structures, npcs, subfactions and textures. It also features a lot of these structures and textures already designed and attached.

However, we didn't really know wiki formatting very well, so we decided to make a pdf for it to help us manage the thing. So the link to the pdf is below, and you can check out the suggestion from there.

I really like the biomes for the Anduin area, but personally I think the Woodmen need more land. It doesn't make sense to me that the Beorning would get more land than the Woodmen, considering how there was probably much less Beornings compared to Woodmen. This is really a small detail though, and this suggestion is massive! Amazing job putting it together!

The Woodsmen were probably much weaker, and have been losing land. The Beornings are strong and defend land well, hence the larger land.

The Beornings, though we didn't go into any detail in the suggestion for basic scope reasons, are generally more of a confederation of Woodmen who are now under the banner of Beorn/Grimbeorn, so the amount of skinchangers among them is definitely very low. There is also some textual evidence that places more significance on the Beornings in the Anduin than generic Woodmen, with them having command of the High Pass, and Frodo seeing the land of the Beornings aflame from Amon Hen rather than the land of the Woodmen.

Glad you liked the suggestion overall though :)

Is this going to get endorsed?

I hope it gets endorsed; It's just that good.

(For those that don't know, if a suggestion is supported by the mod team, it gets a little [ENDORSED] by the name)
