Last time I played that, I had everything up to Isengard and the Misty Mountains as my border.  Was sending a force of some 8000 Uruk-Hai to lay waste to the last remaining stronghold of the Dwarves.

LORD OF THE RINGS' GOING ON, DOOD!

Ah! Bevy, sweetie, my elven warriors would have eaten your uruks :razz:
 
Heh :razz:

Still, have you looked at the stats of these ****ers? Seriously, everything elvish is ridiculously OP (as it should be, mind you, I love when a game follows lore more than balance.)
 
8000 Uruks though.  Eight mother****ing thousand, with more ready to be called up from the area around Dale.

Also, aren't Mordor Uruks stronger than the average Isengard Uruks?

in case you're wondering, no I do not have this installed now, as I have no idea where my medieval 2 disk is and thus can't install it, let alone Kingdoms.

Interesting, danke!
Also, I didn't use trolls et cetera in that game.  Figured that since I had so much land I may as well rely on Red Army style tactics.
 
Yeah, but those suckers are really strong. Not as much as balrogs, though, those one almost killed me off when I was commanding one of my mightiest host, Elrond and Glorfindel in there.

I don't know where I might face Ents, though...
 
I reply this:
This is a forum, we're having a coherent discussion pertaining to the topic at hand. Do not complain because we're spoling your little tea party.

If you're gonna get pissy, go start a "plain TW exclusive club" in the OTHER GAMES sub-topic at the top of the page.
 
Id have to agree with Karj on this one. It is Total War; . i.e: Any total war game, mod or not.

Third Age is for...empire? I may have to download it.. :mrgreen:

Nothing that a few thousand crossbow bolts to the face won't solve.  :smile:
 
Against Blarogs? Good luck, keh. 4 scores of my best archers and 11 of the 12 ****ers still stand.
