^ If you forgot dont post such worthless post that are huge spam.

[Olorin]

That was probably the most spammy post I have ever seen (and trust me, with guys like Elvenlord around here, there are a lot of them ).

OK, so stop spam about how "spammy" this post is, and come back to the topic

And Cel maybe it's possible to give Theoden an armour upgrade? His armour is great, but first two-three levels he shuold have his Edoras outfit IMO. But if it creates mount problems, it won't be a good idea to add.

[Olorin]

Well, considering how the others have been very problematic, I don't think he'll be adding it in a hurry. Unless he does it like he has done Eowyn (you get him on lvl 4 in the campaign anyway).

[Elvenlord]

I really can't imagine Theoden riding out without his armor.
Maybe just give it to him on foot?


Spammy Elven
But that was really bad

[Celeglin]

I absolutely love that outfit and would love to do it. But as you guys have brought up, I probably won't do it until I can get the mounting+armour upgrades to work perfectly.

I love this mod, but could anyone tell me how to get MapControl early vs Gondor.

Lol hey dude. This is mewithoutyou29.

Well um Elves are pretty UP at this point because defensive flets take too long to build and won't stop hs rushes and elves have no cheap infantry to help mirkwood scouts. In this mu on FoI, here's what I would do:

• Immediately grab outside orchards w/ initial MSs and proceed to creep the nearest warg lair until rank 2
• Gondor will have soldiers and hobbits coming to you by now so you need to put up a Mirkwood Lookout Tower asap and get more MS battalions
• If Gondor creeps with beginning soldiers and hobbits, that allows you to get more creeps w/ MSs
• So you'll have 2-3 MSs from your MLT; delete it and make a stables
• get amroth knights and fight his knights like you would in a gondor mirror
• basically creep the rest of map w/ MSs while you're distracting his cav w/ your riders/amroth knights and get more orchards and cav at the same time
• get haldir, barracks, armory, statues --> heores etc. and try to stay alive til you can siege w/ glorfindel/galadriel/elrond/arwen.

^^Cel he is right: an op strat for Gondor vs. Elves is for Gondor to creep w/ knights, get ups and horse shields then just rush the Elven base. GG for elves.

[Olorin]

Why destroy the Lookout Tower? Unless to get extra resources, but by then you would have enough to last you.

[Elvenlord]

Because that 150 can go a long way, and you can build another orchard there

[Olorin]

Yes, but as I said '...but by then you would have enough to last you...', which I'm sure would happen.

[Elvenlord]

But if say you lost an army, you could get it back faster, or something

esp. as elves, since they are so expensive

^^He already had an army (a small one, but still an army). Anyway, this is getting a bit spammy.

Edit: but I do agree with you, that 150 would go a long way...

I know he already had an army, but if he lost it he could get another back faster


It is huh?

Gondor > Elves

Elves need work

Period.

[Celeglin]

Sorry to say this, but I'm not in the mood.

Go fuck yourself

Period.

[Lauri]

elves = pwning Gondor or is it just me?

and Cel, your in the right mood

Anyway... why does no one build wells?!?!?!?!?!? seeing how 2 wells give you a 15% discount a 3 give you 25%. This makes your high elven forces a HUGE amount cheaper. Thus you can build spearmen men for 125 cheaper (at least). And then 4 statues give a 20% cheaper. Saving you 1000 to buy Galadriel, the exact same amount the 4 statues cost. So buying 1 hero and Galadriel saves you money

[Amroth]

The problem was that Gondors hobbits completly rape mirkwood scouts.
Lvl2 Ms + lvl 1 Ms < 2 Gondor soldiers +1 Hobbit.
Will try faster horsemen next time, ty
