Completed Adunabar campaign.

The major disappointment of the Adunabar faction is the long tree that needs to be climbed before you can use units like shadow warriors and trolls that are probably the units you chose the faction for. The financial position of Adunabar is so desperate in the initial turns that you really have no choice but to press forward with the troops you have initially, which are basically RK-lite, in order to balance your budget. Buy the time I was able to start producing trolls RK was history and Rohan was all but beaten.

Because of the lack of defensible boarders to the east and marauding Rhun hoards, disbanding the bulk of your armies in the beginning to make ends meet is not a viable option. In terms of balance the game is fine, I just think it is less fun that the bulk of your best battles are over before you can get your more interesting toys on the field.
