Isengard Very Hard Strategy

[threealls]

Hi guys, I am struggling with Isengard in the face of overwhelming Rohan. I need good strategy to survive early pressure until I am able to mass produce uruk hais. How do you survive as Isengard on VH ? To which direction you expand ? I am trying to hit Rohan provinces directly south of Isengard, but they just bring continuous reinforcements. Thanks for answers.

build a stack of crap units and lurk on the nearby bridges to grind them down... when the crusade is called join it and try to take edoras sneakily. Attack armies next to the city to avoid sparking the garrison script.

That strategy works fine.

my experience.
1) defence your current city untill sauron is back.
2) upgrade farm/mines/market/population growth
3) upgrade barrack+armourer
4) use saruman on all battle. he have an ability to scared enemy unit
5) then ask the dark lord sauron to invade helm deep/edoras
6) after both of helm deep and edoras fall....Rohan will fallen

it works on me
