I love everytime you post one of these vids. Brings back memories of when I used to play this every single friday night from 4pm to 6 am, my celebration ritual of the start of the weekend. Once I get my own computer back again(currently borrowing a friends), I'll hunt down wherever you're able to play this now, and see just how rusty I am :)

I loved the Treebeard parts in the books. Treebeard might very well be the oldest sentient creature still alive in middle-earth and i love learning about ancient stuff
@mattheron51168 жыл бұрын
The whole Tree-beard and existence of the Ents lorewise is actually to counter the existence of the Dwarves. When the Valar were crafting Middle Earth there were originally supposed to be two races called "The Children of Iluvatar" (Humans and Elves) but Aule (who loves crafting and teaching others how to craft) was impatient for the Elves to awaken and so he created the Dwarves so he could teach them. Iluvatar however (who creates all the Valar) wasn't pleased that one of the Valar created something of their own mind but seeing Aule's humility allowed the Dwarves to remain BUT they had to awaken after the Elves. Anyway back to the main point, Aule creates the Dwarves in the depths of the Earth without counselling Yavanna (who is basically the Valar responsible for nature and growth) who was his wife and so because she worried that since the Dwarves were made in the depths of the Earth that they would not respect nature and so after counselling Manwe (the leader of the Valar and Iluvatars representative on Middle Earth) she created the Ents in order to stop the abuse of nature.

I remember when i played online when the game came out. What they did was set the starting limit to 3000. When the game began, all they did was build a Fellbeast and destroy you main building before you had a chance to build anything. Fun times, yay. I would just play single player and build epic wall defence on the black gate map, that was fun.
@maverick13518 жыл бұрын
So I used to play A LOT of bfme online, and the thing about towers you mentioned, when you get better, basically towers become too good, cuz they actually are pretty cheap, and you can store archers in them who are maxed out, and nobody can touch you, especially if you are an elf, and also have some cavalry to deal with potential catapults :D Hope it helped you understand ( I was a huge tower fan as well, but as you progress, they become too strong)

It tends to be players don't like towers because it takes the aggressive back and forward out of games as players just turtle up with heavy fortification which are boring to attack, whereas pitch battles are best where the victor pushes the advantage to the enemy base where then the defender quickly mass produces troops making the game more intense rather then attacking a player with towers garrisoned by silver thorned mirkwoods. This is the same reason players hate fortress spams it just makes the game less back and forward and more static. Don't mean this comment in any harsh way and sorry for the length

@paul_58488 жыл бұрын
+Kent Lang that's the point though players normally don't bother with any siege weapons due to for Rams they player needs to have the initiative which is what the games all about gaining the initiative quickly then pressing it with an army of normal-fast moving infantry archers supporting cav and heroes therefore building towers makes players more restricted sticking around them giving them an advantage which in massive battles where the attack has to destroy a full army while under fire from basically a fixed missile hero that does high damage and with high defence

Hey Apollo ! At First , good Video .

Middle Earth is overrun, Minas Tirith has fallen, King Dain of Erebor is slain and his men quickly joined Sauron in exchange for their lives. Haldir and some elves from Lindon quickly rally the Dwarves of Ered Luin to make a final stand to ensure the evacuation of the remaining free peoples of Middle Earth. Sauron sends one of his Nazgul and the turncoat Dwarves to face them. Once again the forces of good and evil meet at the watchtower of Amon Sul.
