Who Will You Go To War With First??

Disclaimer: I am well aware of the strategy topic and this falls under a sub-topic of strategy but has no direct correlation to SPECIFIC strategy. Enjoy. -Obliterate76

Simply state which faction you will choose, then put in the first nation you wish to crush under the foot of man, or orc and briefly describe why you wish to destroy this nation so early. :tank:

For Me:
Rohan as my faction

I would train an army as fast as I could and muster them towards Gondor and quickly take Minas Tirith and W. Osquiliath (<-Fail). My plan is to hope Gondor is not well prepared right away.

Camusta · Mar 25, 2009

I'll choose isengard maybe...in that case first will be Rohan and later any of elve kingdoms.

dstarsboy · Mar 25, 2009

I'm gonna play as the elves and attack those green, melty looking guys.... because they're not beautiful like me. :yes:

trance · Mar 25, 2009

Mordor will be punished for its crimes, none will be spared the wrath and terror of Gondor!

Mordor? Crimes? A matter of perspective my friend. Mordor will crush puny Gondor like a bug. :whistling

Danny_K_1 · Mar 25, 2009

Now, now we all know who will come out on top...

(Dwarves

)

True that

This will be my plan providing Isengard doesn't have the mine, if they do then i'll play them and take out Rohan since there's no other real choice and they're a huge threat.

ISA Gunner · Mar 25, 2009

You can't attack Gondor as Rohan...that's pathetic. You will then be crushed by Rhun, Harad, Mordor AND Isengard at the same time.

I personally will fight Mordor as Gondor (obviously). Then i'll play as Isengard and crush Rohan... :shifty:

korpaz · Mar 26, 2009

Iam probebly going to play as Gondor, who keep the force of mordor at bay, by the blood of our people are your land´s keept safe.

First I would bring up a good defence against mordor then would I march to Harrad and kill them to flank mordor.

BlackViper · Mar 26, 2009

A disclaimer for a thread :doh:

And why do you attack your only ally? Your so screwed when Mordor wants Minas Tirith and Isengard wants rohan :whistling

For me I will pillage every city arround the Misty Mountains.
So I will be at war with: High/silvan elves and dwarfs.(mayby Dale if they are annoying)
My first target would be something like Rivendell but I probably don't get enough units to do a blitzkrieg to it

(or it is heavily defended by elves)
When my tactic doesn't work I will play hide and seek in the mountains.

Radboud · Mar 26, 2009

Don't we have thread for this already ? :hmm:

ISA Gunner · Mar 26, 2009

Nope. Thats a 'which faction will you play as first first' thread. This is a 'who will you go to war with first thread'. There's a difference.

There's a "what strategy will you use" thread. :whistling

ISA Gunner · Mar 26, 2009

Strategy could be socio-economic as well as political. Not necesseraly military...:wink:

Krechet(SiCh) · Mar 26, 2009

Oh. A lot's of desires. Destroy Rohan us Uruk-Hai ids not so desired now(I did it twice during beta-testing). sO I'll try to destroy Dale, Gondor and capture Erebor and Iron Hills by disciplined forces of Rhun. And later I want too kill whose creeppy goblins by forces of Elves(doesn't matter that elves)

Sargon_of_Akkad · Mar 26, 2009

I personally will relish destroying those arrogant, jumped-up, holier-than-thou, bastard elves!

You aren't so cool, you know!

JorisofHolland · Mar 26, 2009

For what you two just said I'll take out dwarves while playing as the elves.

Legolose · Mar 26, 2009

I will " Of corse " play as the Silvan Elves and probly go to war with Mordor first because my tatics are to take all of Mirkwood first and if my history is right I do believe Mordor owns the southern part of Mirkwood, so therefore I must attack them first :whistling

killerrabbit · Mar 26, 2009

I guess the OoMM eh?

I will take on the dwarves of course, an if I am going to be Isengard, well.. then Rohan is about to fall

Muffer Nl · Mar 26, 2009

I will go to war with OoM instantly. Destroy them!
then Rhun.

Why taking the weakest faction(they start with weak units and the badest starting position

) that is not a challenge now is it?
And what faction are you playing then?

Varjon · Mar 26, 2009

I'll let this stay open but I warn you, no my faction beats your faction discussion is tolerated.

killerrabbit · Mar 26, 2009

yes sir, we've got enough of those discussions already, but... if in capable hands.. I think every faction can rule ME

Muffer Nl · Mar 26, 2009

because they have Moria.
I'm playing Dale. If I can get Moria i will earn tons of money from trade.

Ahlerich · Mar 26, 2009

will rhun be a faction? havent seen a preview. i ll play rhun. i love dirty barbarians ponting out the flaws in "civilization"
i loved rhun in the rtw mod as well

The people from Rhun are no barbarians. They are very civilized compared to orcs and Haradrim.

Sargon_of_Akkad · Mar 26, 2009

Well frankly, I just intend to take out any of the do-gooder-type factions. Well, vassalise them, at any rate. I'm sick of them lording it over the "evil" factions! What was evil to Tolkien appears to have simply been common practise in history!

You never know how the orcs might have reacted to those high-handed elves if they had treated them as friends and tried a little diplomacy, instead of just saying "Mummie, look how yukky it is! Ewww let's kill it!" Yes yes, I know how they look, but if you spend your entire life judging books by their covers, you'll never get anything read!

All those dictatorial elves did is ensure the poor orcs were a self-fulfilling prophecy! "You must go to Mount Doom (not a gay bar) and throw the Ring of Power (still no homosexual innuendos here) into the fires! (lava, not a burning sensation)"....well, that's great, except who made YOU the boss, huh, elfie? Oh, right, you think that you have a hereditary right to it because you were born looking like Agent Smith, I assume.

Well, with me and my plebian orcs, that just doesn't wash, pal. We don't think the Divine Right of Elves is any more realistic than Saruman Claus dropping off toys at xmas to good little orclings, so just because you were lucky and born an elf, doesn't mean you don't have to wipe your arse after you take a dump!

Honestly, there's just no break for the plight of your average, every-day orc, who's just trying to earn a living and put ~~elven heads~~ food on the table!

Hmm... Should I make thread ''Who your cousins allies is going to get kick ass first'' :tongue:
