Coldfells is north of Ettenmoors. I don't know the name of the city, but that's the region you need.

I think the name of the settlement is Coldfells as well. I like taking it in either my HE or Eriador campaign. Mostly because it has no walls
Just confirming for those who may still doubt, yes the settlement is called Coldfells, and i uually always rush for it, since i then send my "gandalfian" army and blitz the heck out of OoG
You can't really rush for Coldfells anymore. In 1.41 it worked with just a general. Now OOG takes it instantly. Kinda like how Isengard takes Tharbad.
It's to the northeast of Hoarwell, inbetween the mountain and where the river bends off to the east.
the AI spawns armies that magically appear near cities it wants ant takes them without siege (even when you are besieging them). All part of the plan to keep you down
I usually cheat in the start and level up Annúminas in the first turn, then I take all the required provinces. After that I send a diplomat down to Gondor, ally, then next turn I become Arnor. Due to the cultural requirements, I'm forced to play defense and just hold onto my cities. I use my diplomacy to give all the cities I cheated to get to one of my allies.
I don't like cheating at all, but I only do so in the start so I can play as Arnor. They're just so much fun and I'm enjoying the additional units mod for them as well.
I don't like how Aragorn greys in his profile picture at age 50. I hope that is changed in a mod at some point.

Thanks,
Is there a map somewhere? As far as I have been able to see. North of Hoarwell is the Ettenmoors, north of Ettenmoors is Gram, and north of Gram is Angmar.
Taking Coldfells, wherever it is, just got a bit harder. It's turn 30, and the High Elves just lost Imladris to OMM!!
I am sending Gandalf with an army to retake it and hand it back to the Elves.
sorry dude, for some reason cant post the picture from imageshack, but heres the link, hopefully should help you with yur bearings, i did have trouble findin coldfells too

does this work with 2.1...the colour and names that is?
pretty sure you can change that yourself. look in the Third_Age/data/ui/custom_portraits/Aragorn folder.
here you will have 4 files:
portrait_dead
portrait_young
portrait_old
portrait_young2
back up all these files somewhere safe. then you make another copy of the portrait_young file. rename it to portrait_old and stick it in the Aragorn folder. click yes to overwrite. no idea if its savegame compatible, though.

I cheated and increased Annumina's population with "add_population Lake_Evendim 5000" (Lake_Evendim is the script name for Annuminas)
because I couldnt be stuffed waiting for the population to grow, seeing as Eriador was glitching, and I couldnt recruit Lumbermen or Greenway sentries

What is the point of Arnor? By the time you can change to it, the campaign is over.
It takes ALOT of time to level up Annuminas, even though i had low taxes, all buildings that gives bonuses to population done and a super general with full respect and good traits.
This is another thing i don't get it. I always keep the taxes at low until the city gets to 10k population, but even with good generals is really slow, By the time i got to about 5 or 6k pop (except Bree) Isengaurd had its cities to somewhere in between 10k and 15k (Isenguard fortress to 22k) ... that's insane bonuses for AI; or is Eriador nerf that bad in regards to growing population?
People you dont need to wait 75+ turns or cheat in order to get Arnor. By changing the Arnor Union script you can decide what requirements should exist in order to form Arnor. Here is what you do:
- Open campaign_script.txt in ...\Medieval II Total War\mods\Third_Age\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign (always make a back-up first in case you screw up )
- Go to ''Arnor Union'' section with control+f, it looks like this:
