Well, it seemed exciting while I was playing in it. There are some battles and a few flank attacks and some organised retreating etc. Might be quite interesting to get another perspective on it from someone who wasn't in the game.

Review please.

Very entertaning game i belive, even if i played like shit.

I should have built seige much much faster. Now it came when it already was to late. I was stuck in some kind of 1vs1 dilema were i wanted an outpost
and some furnaces before going seige, but on Anorien, there is only the middle camp, witch you guys had pretty early and dident let go off wink.gif
And of course the early rush put me back a bit. Thought I was screwed for sure there with no backup from Gondor (damn jason going on his own little harrasing tour wink.gif ), but did manage to get out of it.

{EWM}KingJason(Gondor) & Keidy(Mordor)


thum.gif Worker harrassment with Gollum
thum.gif Extra workers
thum.gif Nice creeping
thum.gif Nice use of industry
thum.gif Used drummer trolls to gain leadership
thum.gif Countered ents with trebs

sad.gif No defence from gondor to help mordor against early rush
sad.gif Poor harrassment
sad.gif Mordor shaould take 3 spots for faster eco
sad.gif No archer/soldier combo
sad.gif Nazgul hitting own troops
sad.gif No use of nazguls screech
sad.gif poor use of formations

Comments: You played an ok game but gondor should send one unit to the mordors base and the other unit up to harrass and pippin to claim the farms as mordor will get rushed early resulting somtimes in a loss.Also you need to constantly harrass there farms.Lumber mills especially isengards as they will have a stronger army that you.At the start of the game you had bad teamwork as mordor should always take the 3 spots (lumber mill spots) for faster eco which will help get faster trolls and naz.There was no use of soldier/Archer combo which is a must against isengard as you only went soldiers which is a foolish mistake as they got crushed by your opponents horses.You had poor use of nazgul as you hit your own men and you never used screech which is a good thing to do as you can trolls to run in and kill your opponents troops while they are scared.

Team Rating: 4

Daemontte(Rohan) & Elder|Starlight(Isengard)


thum.gif Effective peasant spam resulting in destroying his pit
thum.gif Used formations correctly
thum.gif Used zerks to counter orcs
thum.gif Used beacons(nice teamwork)
thum.gif Nice use of eowyns spear ability
thum.gif Nice hero micro

sad.gif Fought on EW
sad.gif Armoury at front of base
sad.gif Should get Fire arrow upgrade 1st against a mordor
sad.gif Lost armoury before you could get fire arrow upgrade
sad.gif Poor harrassment
sad.gif Didnt use legolas's train archers ability

Comments: You played a good game by using formations correctly, using eowyn to counter naz and using beacons to communicate for help.You had several mistakes like you fought on EW which you shouldnt of done and you built an armoury at the front of your base which you lost before you could get Fire arrwos (The armoury should always be at the back).Also you had poor harrassment also which you need to do against a mordor or he will get a fast naz possibly before you get legolas.There was no real use of Legolas's train archers which is a good thing to do.

Team Rating: 4


----------------------------------------



Match Comments: This was a good game from both sides.Both teams were pretty evenly matched and lots of battles invovled.


Entertainment value: 6

Overall game rating: 5
