Eastereggs are Units, special Events or Game Modes. They are faction specific and/or map specific and are no regular part of the game. Like real Eastereggs the In-Game Eastereggs are hidden by the modders and the community has to find them. In most online games (especially tournaments) it is forbidden to use them.
About[]
To get Eastereggs you have to carry out fixed actions in the right order. Depending on the Easteregg it needs a different number of actions. There are some, which need only 2 steps to do (like Seraphim in Edain 3.8.1), but also a few, nobody knows anything about how to "find" them (like the Overlord).
Because it is very time-consuming to hide and find them you should never give anybody a clear guide how to find Eastereggs and clear guides will be deleted, here and on the forum. But do not be afraid. It is allowed to tell about the Eastereggs in riddles and poems. So if you found an Easteregg you can write a riddle or poem about how to get it.
Also, Youtuber RuudDevil is doing the Easteregg videos where he clearly explains how to get one or other easteregg so watch them on your own risk (SPOILERS!). But before watching the videos try to solve these riddles.
In the following article you can find all known (we know) riddles about Eastereggs in all present Edain-Mod-Versions (Incomplete / In Process). It is key to note that the version written by "Unknown" were merely translated versions of the original while the other versions were recreated by a english Edainers who have found the easteregg
Edain Mod 4.X[]
Saruman - Chill Out Boy[]
Where the elderly and the hairy meet,
The White strode into a small, green land.
And with the golden pitcher at his feet,
A robe as beautiful as a rainbow he will demand.

The ambush (Broken in 4.4)[]
Unknown to me, my eastern enemy awaits,
Among the streets in a valley of stone.
If the Red Eye wins we'll meet our fates,
To defend my hill, my weapons are honed.
By Gotyam
Far over the misty mountains cold[]
One of three, its settlements long lost,
Cold it has been along the roof of Khazad-dûm.
Will the sturdy few succumb to their frost?
Or will the sons of Durin avoid an untimely doom?
By Gotyam
Refugee of the Woods[]
In the deep of woods; where no one can see
In the depth of woods where no one can enter
A little refugee started to gather
Against the enormous goblin armies,
To gather and fight for second time

An Artist Little Hobbit[]
A little hobbit wanted to paint,
A little tiny sign.
After he finished the painting, he was really proud,
But he were not aware of, that painting, means something else;
That it is used as a machine of war.
No Snow in the North, only roaches that surge forth (broken in 4.3.1)[]
To they North they went,
Not too far from their homes.
They were to fight the evil spawn,
Even though they were only gnomes.
Their families were there,
To help in a time of need!
But little did they know,
They were only temporarily freed.

With fingers spread far and wide, unknown allies await[]
In the dark forest where Her children lives,
The Dark Lord has ordered them to die.
And to the killer among towers the Dark Lord gives,
An infestation that will make them go "oh my"
By Gotyam
The Panda[]
Some talk of a perverted Beorning
that did not end up as wished
Yet no lore remains
For all is now lost
The Minion of Winter[]
In the land where the witch king belongs,
the region of frost and icy songs,
There in his citadel he does hold,
In his palantir, a secret minion oh so bold
By seanpower2
Behold the old[]
From the times of creation,
He has held on with the winter's hand.
As he roams outside the infested towers,
He is hidden from view, before he is yours to command.
By Gotyam
Isengard unleashed[]
A duelling ground known to all,
Though not the same as it was before.
A day and a half, but none will fall,
And a third will arrive on their way to war.
By Gotyam
Traitorous once, traitorous again[]
Someone ought to teach them a lesson,
Those dirty, rebelling scum!
Against the red-eyed banner they went,
Just so they can drink their rum!
Soon they will feel our whips,
As they don't even have a gate.
They put more trust in their sturdy ships,
Than in the might of Sauron the Great!
By Gotyam
In the land of the south[]
In the lands of the south
where the yellow face is bright and terrible,
The four snakes seek a leader
Only he who can behead them
Shall command them to war.
By Julio229
The secret marks the future[]
In the land of the Men of Numenor
The Elves of knowledge must face an enemy
Terrible indeed but they must face him alone
Seek the place where the moon and water meet
There you must face the wrath of the wild
The Sack of Rohan[]
North of the Hill of Sight,
Pillagers descend upon peasants.
The sack of Rohan has begun,
Beware the horselord's mighty hooves.
Pick your targets wisely....
Enemies closing in[]
The King of All is encircled!
Enemies close in on all sides!
The beacon is lit but they seek to topple it.
Brace and yourself and await the coming of the Last.
Oh the humanity,
To be so precariously postured,
In our very homeland
