Glad to see you continuing the campaign. KOSS are too good not to play with.

1:06:56 Yeah, something I learned the hard way in this mod is that archers are very dangerous against cavalry

I was looking some of your DAC campaigns and the IA looks like more aggressive than when I play. Did you modify something to change the IA behavior ?

Would you recommend SSHIP over SS 6.4?

I keep losing intrest in my campains after 60 or 70 turns. Any advice so that I can play longer?

Man Alive I thought for sure you were going to lose to the clock on that one.

0:34:33 This is lovely room of death...take care now...bye bye then

Heck yeah, what a pleasant surprise seeing this content

Fedt at se en dansk TW kanal,du gør det godt 👏🏻

First time seeing an imperial stables! Third Tier guilds are quite the rarity in the wild

With any luck, the hordes of Khand will throw everything against their former cities over the end turn and will be a destroyed faction come your next turn. You should have battles against Isengard and Mordor over the end turn, as well. The section entitled Battle of Edoras was not. It was the battle of Khand's capital. You've said often enough that you want Gondor to do well. Truth is those cities would do far better as yours than they will as Gondor's.

Balin's in a spot of bother. Your own fault, too. You auto-resolved a battle that should have been fought manually, you had reserves you did not commit and you allowed the enemy to ransom their troops. You do not need the money. You got lazy. Did you decide the campaign needed some spicing up? That the dwarves are just too strong? The Dunlendings have a lot of cheap units. The units you have that you don't hire would mean you fight on an even balance and you could do that. Save your better units for enemies that need them, if you wanted to.

Time for an Amphibious assault in Cardolan one wonders?

0:41:18 What a moment for humanity

I am looking forward to hopeful a powerful isengard mash up....they are a far tougher matchup for DA

0:24:48 The kind of mgmt that pleases the crowds.

Maemania was a nice touch

MMGA. Make Mordor Great Again

the spy joke was quality 🤣

4:48 "Dammit! He wouldn't have caught us if you didn't jingle that chain!"

have you built the archery range in Haudhanur yet? The times they are a Ranging.......i believe that's a song

"these orcs are my b*tches"- Cpt TW

Hopefully Thorins Halls and Erebor are lost....a showdown against High Elves and Gundabad (assuming they are the ones that are besieging Erebor) would be great!

haha playing as Lothlórien I am really jealous of the riches you enjoy.

Thats not how construction reduction works xD the general needs to be in the city when you start building the building otherwise it wont be cheaper. Because the que buildings dont take away from your treasury untill its their turn to be built. So you have to move him, build 1 building, send him back, on each new building. But you have the money so it doesnt matter really. Oh and taking the lothlorien capital provides the biggest buff to cheeper buildings -30%. Making some towns build for 1 gold :D

>Title Thanks now the song is stuck in my head

0:52:00 This was a great moment for the channel LOL

So if DA can get WoWT and GoOsgi's from knights lodgings in Osgiliath, what can you get from knights lodgings in Minas Tirith?

Mordor has claimed another of Dol Amroth's generals. I like forgetting about Durthang or is it Durthanq nestling just to the left of the Black Gate? I expect to see Isengard attacking you at the Black Gate. I like that they are sending full stacks at you. 4 cities of Mordor. I like how you're sending small stacks east so cavalierly, when you know Khand has force west of Korondaj. Khand should recall all its forces to attack Adrahil in Siakan and you set up Adrahil's force to be good in defensive struggles. Should being the operative word. 4 Khand cities and two armies already on route. 2 more and and the Khandish menace will be ended for good. Next, three armies for Mordor's eastern cities and defences against Rhun. I know you want Gondor to do well, but this is rump Gondor. The line of the Stewards is no more. Best thing you can do is buy up as much of Gondor as you can, reducing it to where the Last Stand army is triggered that'll be sent against Enedwaith and take the three cities in the 'corner'. Then when the Enedwaith diplomat finally reaches you, you'd have six well developed cities to take. Each to his own, however, if that is not something you'd want to do.

0:25:15 This would have been a good time to switch to mortar and lob them at the Sellswords. Likely would have gotten multiple 20+ kill hits while they were stagnant

Will be sorry to see this campaign go....it's been hilarious to see you buy the entirety of mordor and now you have all the innas rim and chariots to go bonkers wherever you see fit.

Baruun Raiders (the artists formerly known as Khandish Raiders) are OP imo....Lovely horde of quasi-mongols to parade around middle earth causing havoc to man and dwarf alike.

I hope you're dun lending them your settlements. An episode where the Dwarves came up short. Still, heroic Gimli has arrived to put an end to organised goblin resistance. Once Goblin Town falls, any remaining goblins of Moria can be dealt with at your leisure.

hey waffle your playlist is all out of whack thought id let you know

sheesh....I thought Oin was a goner. Gonna need more first legion recruitment potentials to hold up the Dunland rush.

great episode.....glad to see isengard get after you....I'm interested to see if there's any Rohirric AOR units available to DA.. I'm guessing no but I'd love to be surprised.

First

While I have faithfully watched every single episode of the campaign, I'm not much of a commentator. So let me start with congratulating you on your campaign; it has been fun to watch and I'm glad you've decided to play on a little bit further even though the campaign has already been won. There's one thing I would like to mention regarding the ransoming of captives. If an army loses more than 85% of its troops in a battle, it gets destroyed. However, a paid ransom prevents this. If a ransom is paid, not only are the prisoners returned, but also all other remaining soldiers. For example, in that battle against Khand outside Korondaj, executing the prisoners would have destroyed the army. By accepting the ransom, Khand also got its amok running Great Beasts back. While I personally kill everyone because of that most of the time, I'm not saying it is a mistake to ask for a ransom per se. Everyone is entitled to play the game the way they like to, that's the beauty of Medieval 2. But I think it's something players should be aware off.

Judging by the colour of the faction on your borders, Isengard owns the settlement north of the Black Gate and the one to its west. When you take the Black Gate you will likely trigger Mordor's Last Stand army, but you look to have the forces you need to face off against it. I still wish you'd buy the settlements of Brethil, Tarnost and Ethring off Gondor. There's a White Tree fort south of Fanuilond. You are not at war with Gondor, yet. I stress, yet. Enedwaith is fighting both Gondor and Isengard. Allying Enedwaith and joining its war against Gondor means you don't have declare war on your ally, Gondor. Where was Gondor when Rohan fell? Losing Minas Tirith to Mordor. Gondor only exists because the Silver Swan saved it. It Steward, the do-nothing Denethor and his sons; the brutish Boromir and the bookish Faramir do not strike fear in the hearts of their enemies nor love in their friends. West of Chelkar is a fort still flying the Khandish flag. That ought to be taken by an army (small) marching to Chelkar. The forces there could march towards Kyzikum with some of the knights that won't fit in the two armies at Kruk Mahur, both of whom can start moving towards Khand's cities in a row. You've one in Korondaj that could also move towards those four cities. There's an army of Khand that is west of Korondaj that could be countered by a force plus general coming from Amrun. There's no point triggering a Last Stand force, if you don't have to. i's easier to take the three cities of eastern Mordor from Khand than it is walking across Mordor. Feel free to take my suggestions on board or not. It is up to you. If they are what you were going to do, great minds and all that.

It being Sunday, I was expecting a nice relaxing episode with Swan Knights riding over everything. I did notice that the warriors on display were rather short. They had strange names. This Bifur has no failed to capture two major goblin strongholds. This just reinforced my belief from watching the Hobbit movies that he should not be entrusted with anything difficult, like making breakfast. This is a job for Oin the Annihilator. With him on the job, the Goblins will soon be ended.

It's been a while since I checked into this channel. But this has the vibes of nature documentery and a political drama in one.

1:13:54 lost 1 soldier against 250 there, but then lost 4 against 2... Sure game, sure.

Don't forget about Siakan south of Sturlurtsa.....it's the one I always forget about and takes forever to get to

Poor Duron. The settlement his men took should be renamed in his honour. Korondaj looks like it will come under attack by two full, almost. stacks of Khand. Chelkar looks to be coming under more attacks from Khand. meanwhile Adrahil is going to the Khandish capital to take it and force Khand to focus on him. You've got a lot of troops in towns that should not becoming under attack. I don't know if they are awaiting upgrades to armour and weapons or are just awaiting their marching orders to go assist on the front line. You certainly reacted quickly to Mordor in Rohan, sending a full stack west. I wonder how many other towns Mordor controls north of the Black Gate? Whilst I do not watch your Rhun campaign, I think others who do would find a playlist helpful.

I missed it! Where did you get the dragons layers retrained at? My guess is Annon en arod? Glorious regardless

It would be fun to see ithilien rangers defending henneth annun

Are Ithilien Rangers recruitable in Haudhanur with the archery range?

I love the uruk overseers. Finest cheerleaders of middle earth!

Hall of the seven was removed in V5

I agree a tiny bit with with the comment about returning Caras Galadhon, but I think you should do: dwarwen supremacy where all captured cities east of Mirkwood are handed to Erbor and all Angmar and Enedwaith lands are handed to the Ered Luin.
