    How do you increase the population of a castle, since you can't change the tax rate?

    put in governors with respect and develop the farms

    even so, dont expect to get beyond castle... it really takes a lot..

    Do most people who play TATW disregard the number of turns and just play at their own pace?

    Same here, sometimes I make Aragorn run around the entire middle-earth by making him travel from Vatavea to SHOULD NOT BE SEEN

    I usually quit around turn 290

    after occupying mordor with rohan around turn 70, I "move_character"ed my army and occupied remaining several non good faction territories around the map in few turns.

    I'm currently playing as HE. I have an army just outside of Isengard and I want to seige the place. My army consists of Elrond and his bodygaurd, 2 cavalry units, 4 spearman units, 2 light infantry units, and a whole bunch of archers. My army totals around 1000 people. Isengard, on the other hand, has about 2152 people, consisting mostly of goblin infantry, snaga archers, 2 units of wargs, some uruk-hai heavy infantry, and saruman and his bodyguard. My strategy is to scale the walls with my light infantry to make way for my archers. At the same time, I bring the rest of my units inside the gates(my spy has infiltrated Isengard and the gates are open for me). Is this a good strategy? Am I scaling the walls properly?

    I play at my own pace and style. Heck, i haven`t even finished a single campaign since 1.0 since there`s always that point where i realise: Huh, wheres the challenge gone?

    Just starve them or wait for reïnforcements to attack you. You will lose a lot less men when fighting on the defensive side. They might even decide to sally out to meet you.

    I tried what you suggested by waiting for the reinforcements to attack me, but when I try to fight the battle, the game crashes and I get this error message: "Medieval 2: Total War encountered an unspecified error and will now exit." How do I fix this?

    I looked in the folder but couldn't find a log file. I figured out that if I didn't rearrange my army before starting the battle, the game wouldn't crash.

    No facepalm he's just trying to help new people. And right now as HE i own all eriador, misty mountains, anduin vale, isengard, and rohan, and am past black gate and minas morgul, and cirith ungul, i own orc camp and the other one by black gate, its turn 269 or so and i had a full army or all silver chevron tier 2 and 3 units at baradur but i didnt kill because garrison script gave like no troops, so it would have been no challenge and now my campaign is basicly over because good kicked butt and gondor owns most of harad, though rhun is doing ok.. But dwarves have like six full armys of erebor axeman so they might just be my only real challenge.. Im gonna conquer the whole map i guess but i got so bored i started auto resolving lol and im kinda sad by how easy it is... I make like 30k per turn and at 1 point before massivly training troops i had about 200k i build a building every turn in every settlement that doesnt have every thing built lol so my economy is great. Thats all i have to say i guess. The game is way less hard and fun when good does well......

    Don`t forget the OotMM- They are the "weakest" faction.

    "Weak" as in difficult to play.
