    Default Nerf the spawn stack script?

    Hello, I'm playing as Gondor on M/M and toggle fog of war on, I've lead quite an enjoyable campaign so far and the garrison script was certainly most welcome when I attacked Minas Morgul and in a challenging battle captured it.

    Now my main army is in the heart of Mordor after capturing Cirith Ungol one or two turns ago and is battling Orc forces, I've noticed a full stack of elite Orc forces with Olog-Hais, Uruks, etc and with a general next to Barad-Dur and was a bit surprised and shocked (I've never seen the stack before and it's only year 2987), but I figured this was to represent Mordor's last ditch attempt (as I defeated their spam of Orc Raiders and the likes) at making the best army to fight me.

    But now to my surprise, whenever I end the turn a new stack of 3/4th full Orc army with a general spawns outside Cirith Ungol and besieges it. They're mostly consisted of elite units once more, although luckily no trolls.

    This is pretty annoying for me as I'll lose vital troop numbers which I need to defeat that elite stack that spawned.
    I'm just wondering if in 3.0 the script could be altered to only spawn one elite stack and if any further stacks then just as militia units such as Orc Raiders? After all, the bulk of Sauron's forces were just poorly trained Orcs levied from wherever they could find.
    And the stacks should certainly be spawned only in their own territory, not in mine.

    So... would it be possible to alter the script like this? I do like the idea of fighting full stacks of Orcs as I've mostly only fought waves of small armies with 3 or 4 units in them, but certainly not behind my lines and certainly not a good stack when an elite one is already out there.

    Yeah i agree. If it is to represent Conscripts and fast rates of "emergency recruitment as well as to ballance ai there should be less "instant" Elites but way more basic infantry.

    Fix the spawn stack scrip
    Fixed it, the script should not be nerfed but altered in the way it is presented.
