Yes, I know there has been many Eriador guide-threads, but I haven't seen a 3.2 Eriador guide. I've played Eriador many times to get to Arnor, but I always fall at some point. After that, I either start again or try some other faction. If I try other faction, I play it for about 40 turns, then start Eriador again.
But the question is: what exactly should I do when playing Eriador. I am a total newbie to total war, so please tell exactly what I'm meant to do. I usually take Nenuial, Amon Sul, Allimir and Hoarwell at start. I don't take Tharbad, because it's split into two parts, so I'll simply buy them from Isengard later. I don't start war with anyone, because they(OoG & OotMM) usually start war with me. I once did a full-scale-assault on four Gundabad's settlement's (Athilin, Carn Dum, Coldfells & Gram), believing this would be the end of OoG. But no. They didn't just repel it, they steamrolled my armies. So could somebody please help a bit.
