Wow nice idea, worked out pretty well. Great creeping again . Although you could have fucked him at the start if you crept the top warg first and lead the wargs to his farm. They take it down pretty fast then he would only have 2 farms when his stable was up.
interesting idea, but I think against a better Gondor this wouldn't work. Xehanort's pippin micro sucked. However, with some further adjustments this strategy might be strong:
You lost your Mill on your side. This could probably have been prevented if you had delayed his Soldiers by building the top right Mill as soon as you see his Soldiers at top and demolishing it at 90%. You'll not have time to check the middle with these Orcs then I think, as they need to go to top right in time. Send the Orcs that you send forward through middle instead of along bottom then so you see when the starting Soldiers come through middle and can adjust your strategy in time.
yeah that makes sense....i actually think this strat can delay his horses and econ, which is gonna gimme some time to creep...but yeah i like the tips on how to improve this strat..
thx for the comments

ok I've thought about this a bit more and there is a lot of potential right here I think. Don't fight Pippin with your attacking Orcs, just go on the Farm. Since you also get the other Farm down (on your side) because of what Velve said above, Gondor will lose both outside Farms. Pretty much gg tbh.
Attack Pippin with only Gollum and 7 labourers at your Mill on his side. Labourers do a lot of damage vs Pippin and force him to die or cloak soon. If he cloaks, you cast eye on him to uncloak Pippin and kill him. Then move the eye to your side of the map to fight vs the Soldiers.

Be careful here that the hobbit does not move right up close to your mill and start attacking the labourers as soon as they pop out as he will arrive before your mill finishes making.
To counter this set your mill on waypoint so your labourers move to the back as soon as they pop out then start stacking labourers like you do your orc pit until Pippin is dead .
