Are Ents too Weak? Vote!

So I have the Ent faction submod and (as the Ents) I had taken isenguard and sent most of my forces north to Dunland. Then the traitorous Rohirrim attack Isengard so I sally out with one unit of ents.

The enemy have two archers (helmingas and normal archers) some spear and axemen and one unit of cavalry as the general.

I got to the stage where one of the archers fled so i tackled the other. My ents survived a single barrage of fire arrows and then enter a mêlée with the archers (helmlingas) a moment later 6 ents are dead and the rest are fleeing for their lives. DEFEAT.

HOW AGAINST ARCHERS IN MÊLÉE DID THEY DIE?

Well I really don't know, but I must tell you that I even increased their stats in that submod.

Well after managing to own Isengard when it was 2 pikemen, 4 raiders, 4 archers, 1 bodyguard, countless snagas and mainly missile reinforcements against 4 ents I don't think i Fail. Can we stop having Rohan attacking Ents it is annoying.

Strange. Maybe it was a morale drop that caused the ents to flee.

Lol yeah, dunno how you managed to lose, honestly, ents are virtually unstoppable in the right hands. Maybe it was the fire arrows...But the ents don't have that weakness yet do they???

You know, I dont play with the Ents much. I just dont find them that much fun.
I was playing as Silvans, picked up a unit of Ents and marched into Moria. I was outnumbered but used the Ents to great effectiveness and eventually got the 'continue battle' notice which I do almost every time.

Anyway, long story short, I'm left with 8 Ents and four orcs running around. here's what bothered me...the Ents would kick them, run over them, etc and these damn orcs just kept getting up. now I'm sorry...if an Ent kicks an orc...it's going to die after a few times. Nope. I watched that thing get kicked EIGHT TIMES. WTF?

Yes I had that, there was an enemy general with only one guard and no matter how many times I trampled, kicked and hurled the bugger HE WOULD NOT DIE (and that was just the bodyguard, the general was worse!)

Ents are weird!

They just need to fix ents, No fear and make them less buggy when I use them sometimes a ents gets attacked and does nothing for 5minutes...They are just bit buggy and can't kill orc troll captains but their strenght is fine
