Artistic License Geography: As explained in the FAQ, the developpers choose to put the citadel of Minas Tirith on the top of a black carved rock instead of the white one, because they fell it would look cooler.

Among the hirable companions, a few of them (the Gondor ranger Mablung, the Isengard wolf rider Durgash) have a variation of scout in their background.

There are also some units which name implies this role ('Orc tracker of Mordor', 'Ranger of Ithilien', etc).

There are a lot of scouting parties wandering everywhere on the map, some random quests even require to dispatch some or personnally recon a specific area.

#MOUNT AND BLADE MIDDLE EARTH MOD#

Three skills of the core of Mount & Blade ('spotting': increase field of view on the world map 'tracking': studying the tracks on the ground 'path-finding': increase the speed of travel on the world map) are scout-oriented they still can be used in the mod.

Arcadia: Most of the setting (apart from the south-eastern parts of the map and a few Orc settlements build in a deforested spot).

Arbitrary Headcount Limit: Averted, like in the original game the maximal size of an army based on charisma, fame, and one the leadership skillВ to allow the formation of larger hordes for the evil factions, each Orc unit hired makes the cap a bit hight (something like 'two more units for three Orcs').

Animal Theme Naming: Harad, Rhun, and Dunlendings use this trope.

Exclusively Evil: It comes from The Lord of the Rings.

Although Orc blood is described as black in the books, all the blood in the game is red. It makes some conversations sounding a bit Out of Character, when the leader of an evil faction asks the player politely to do a random quest and nearly apologizes when the player answers that he won't be able to do it.

Affably Evil: Some parts of dialogs (especially all which is related to quests common to all sides) are the same for every factions.

Female commanders are Miriel (Mirkwood), Galadriel (faction leader of Lothlorien) and the Black Numenorean Beruthiel (Mordor).

Hirable companions feature Faniul from Dale, Luevanna from Mirkwood, and Galmyne from Rohan.

There are also a few female commanders and hired blade among the Elven and Human NPC:

Action Girl: Elves and most Human player characters can choose to be one, although this isn't adviced because of graphical issues (see Obvious Beta below).

Tropes used in The Last Days (of the Third Age of Middle Earth) include:
