Sounds like a good change in favour of the defensive player, very well done!
Just curious: how long does it take to break a gate with a ram? Because some settlements have multiple gates to go...
I'm not very well versed in the lore, but is it ever written that the spiders actually served Dol Guldur?
Dol Guldur have a strong distinction from the other orcs in the fact that their 'homeland' is forest instead of mountains. I think this should be their discerning factor.
So how could that be...
1. When moving units around on the battle map, press and hold Spacebar to see where they will position themselves (yellow dots will appear).
2. Be sure to check the Faction Overviews on Arachir's...
Alright, then it'll be a matter of waiting. I'll let you know what'll happen.
Started a solo hotseat campaign recently, playing with Dorwinion and the Variags. Brilliant combination: first breaking down Rhun together, then taking a break to build up economy (and give the AI...
Great to see someone creating this, hotseat total war is always brilliant! Few questions:
- To play the Dwarven Overhaul, should I first update the 2.2 files and then add the Dwarven Overhaul files?...
Looks fantastic, Hummingbird. Good luck with the motivation & discipline to finish the boring stuff!
Looking great! I'll holding off on starting a new v2.2 campaign with Dwarves, keen to try Ered Luin in your new setup!
Looks and sounds great, Hummingbird, looking forward to seeing more of this!
Thanks! It felt like quite the rollercoaster of constant warfare, but with a cavalry faction, that is just delightful in DaC. The Rohan Riders made quick work of most early tier units of all my...
So I just managed to finish my VH/VH Rohan campaign after all, by destroying the Ring and claiming victory (thanks to Thorsten and Ngugi for the aid in working around the Ring script bug!). I've...
So I was just able to finish my Rohan campaign and also got a crash when I chose to destroy the Ring. I remembered this post and read back to it (page 393), but am I right to understand that this...
Does anyone know what decides which unit becomes the captain in a stack without a general? I often see the 'first' unit in the stack becoming the general, but sometimes in AI stacks it seems to be...
Even with Rohan, bridges are great. I'm around turn 120 in my campaign and I'm holding back Harad at the bridge just south of Tir Ethraid. I have a stack with two catapults, one ballista, five...
I'm all in favour for removing many of the starting mounted bodyguards, as they are just overpowered in the hands of the player. I'd be happy to see this being done across all factions though: change...
Thanks for the reply! I reopened the campaign to toggle_fow and see what's up, and ... the red circle was back. I don't understand what happened last time, maybe some visual glitch with alt-tabbing...
Is there anyone who can answer the quoted question? It was posted on page 388 or so, but didn't get answered, although I'd be surprised if no one can answer it. I'd love to know before I continue my...
So I continued my Rohan campaign (turn 103 now) and 7 turns after the Ring was found in Carn Dum, the red circle around the city disappeared. Does this means the Ring is no longer there?
EDIT: my...
Oh wow, okay, so there's no time limit or something: if I don't do anything, these guys are going to run around forever... thanks for the info, I'll have to start taking them down one by one!

Having a blast in my Rohan campaign at the moment, bringing the fight to Mordor and washing away those stacks of Uruks with well-timed and placed charges: nice to play such a strong cavalry factions...
Could it be an option to give Rohan an archer unit which can use stakes? It has always confused me that a cavalry-focused faction is not be able to use of this at all. I think in the faction overview...
I guess your best option would be to play as Imladris and only hold Imladris (and perhaps Annon-en-Erod and Ost-in-Edhil), simply defending your territories and never attacking any opponent. Playing...
I think there is a restriction that you cannot ally with a faction as long as you are at war with one of their allies. So say Ered Luin is allied to Bree and you are at war with Bree, then you will...
Ok, so I heard in one of your videos that you like to hear more campaign stories, so I thought I'd share mine. I might make a few mistakes with the town names, but forgive my lack of knowledge on...
Baz has his own thread in the submod section, which you can find at http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?689948-Baz44331-Elven-Armies-Remake.
I think the DaC team has stated that they...
Can anyone please tell me the original values for Gondor's starting gold and king's purse? Think I tweaked them a bit in my favour when I tried a Gondor campaign a while ago and now I want to start a...
Great, thanks for clearing that up!
Not sure if this is DaC-specific, but I've seen it mentioned a lot in Arachir's Faction Overview videos, so I thought I'd ask here:
Can anyone explain the exact effect of 'Terrain bonus/malus' and...
I think this is an inherent part of DaC, where the AI factions all get some automated first turn expansion into rebel cities. So on their first turn, they will automatically 'capture' these cities,...
Good job! I think I can add one to the list that wouldn't have shown up in custom battles:
As Isengard, I got the German voice when I sailed with a mercenary ship: the captain saying "Ja, Kaiser"...
I tried it and it indeed destroyed the faction, as well as placing the armies (as Rebels) outside the cities. Worked well and will allow me to continue in this game, although such acts tend to ruin...
They still have three more regions: Lond Daer, Dol Vorn and the province between Dol Vorn and Surudi (Bregost or something). Two of these cities still have generals, but neither of these is the...
Hahaha fair point, but they were only a means to an end, obviously :tongue:. All men could be killed in the end, although I'm not sure how I would ever get rid of Grima...
He is the faction leader in my game, very strange that he's not in your playthrough of this save.
This shows the battle: the two armies of Enedwaith attacking Lurtz, who has gathered the best...
Ok, so after a full reinstall and installing 0.51, my battle against Enedwaith's faction leader still gives me a CTD. Can anyone please check this battle? You can just auto-resolve and win, after...
I installed 0.51, but still get the CTD after defeating Enedwaith's faction leader in a siege battle.
Now I've turned off UAC completely (only deleted the files earlier, never understood how to...
Is Enedwaith is one of these factions?
I just finished a large battle in which the faction leader of Enedwaith (who no longer had a Faction Heir, I believe) sallied out and got mercilessly...
As Isengard, I can build a Troll Cage after the Barracks Event, which allows me 1 Trolls of the White Hand. Once that is built, I can also build an upgraded version 'Troll Breeder', which also only...
