But they're Elves! The name screams arrows!
If the number of arrows were lowered, they would be just like any other archer...
Yea... I'm going to lower the # of arrows in my EDU... from other SS's it looks like I'll have to do some other edits too. Oh well.
in no way am i saying the games bad or balance sucks games great so far i just think missile damage is a little out of control strong. still amazing though.
I have to agree that arrows even from crappy rebels are uber strong. I think we can see why an army of archers can wipe out a far larger orc army with ease, which is quite tactically dull and boring. More balancing will take place though, lots infact.
This game is crazy fun But I have a question:
Getting a bit tired of Gondor Spearmen and Archers, and Minas Tirith has only 6000 people and growing veryyy slooowly. How do I get some cooler units to recruit? Got lots of cities, just about to invade mordor.
You have to wait:
I can choose from about 6 units (excl. siege and bodyguard) as Mordor right now. I can't built trolls and uruks but the current units (even the crappiest ones) look pretty cool so I don't really mind. I'm already at turn 30 so it shouldn't be to long before I get new stuff.Originally Posted by Gampie
As for the archers: I noticed even my scouts (crappiest Mordor ranged unit) were pretty effective (although this was when defending a city or castle). I'm training some Orc archers to see how the higher tier archers fare. That screenshot is pretty insane...

Rome wasn't built in 50yrs let alone a day! Try playin The High Elves for a real financial and manpower squeeze! Goblin Town just took a pasting though! The chaps are complaining that they can't rename it AllGoblinsgonnathrill!

Honestly, i am more or less speechless.. collecting my thoughts as yet... just got done studying and did a test run with the silvans against mordor. It was beautiful. I cant wait to play the campaign tomorrow.
