Battle for Middle Earth 2

Hi there,

I'm coming from BFME1, and just wondering how to make combos in BFME2, since right click at archers or soldiers doesn't works. Is there any type of combos, and how to make them?

Thank you!

Combos? You mean like making a battalion with half archers and half soldiers? Can't do it.

Even if you could make a combo it would not be worth it, cavalry would easily trample the archers in the back. Much better to just put the pikes on top of the archers.

OK, thank you.

And how about using "A" shortkey to move a battalion and automatic attack a troll or wargs in a safe distance, like its possible in BFME1? Is there some option like this, in BFME2?

also a click? but u still have to micro ur archer when u creep a troll. you cant just a click and thats it

OK, I got it, tks.

lol?Really in bfme1 exists that automatic thing? xD

it exists in pretty much every rts game

The guard function? I'm pretty sure that is what he is referring to. It was hellishly useful in BFME1 as Trolls and Fliers moved faster when they target something so you'd have them guard creep lairs or something to escape or whatever.

Fliers retain this feature in BFME2 but there is no guard function and certainly no combo system. Instead you get to left and right click with units selected and make them arrange themselves all pretty.

Incorrect. He is referring to the Attack-Move button as that is what the hotkey A distintly refers to in both games. This was previously mentioned.


Moron.

You're just mad I raped your Rohan left and right.

That's sad.


60 posts Ana?How it came? xD

why is it sad?

Imo creeping requires also a bit of micro,not a lot ofc but some..An auto-shit like that takes away micro,so is less fun.

Why can we even use the keyboard? Playing with mouse only requires much more skill.

And the difference between creeping using A and not using A would be just that without A you have to click at the first target and not somewhere behind the creepbuilding, thats it.

And imagine when you're playing Elves and theres a big fight. You can't use A to engage, so you shoot with every single bat of LA on just 1 bat of units. That would be a huge overkill and it gives you a very big disadvantage.

I've never used A move, I didn't even know it existed until I quit BfME2 yet I still dominated everybody. I also frequently couldn't be fucked to use stances. Same applies.

i personally used like every hotkey there is in bfme2 xD

And I was still better than you.

i played you like 2x when i was epic dogshit
at that time i didnt even knew you can use keyboard in bfm

You did not. Ever. In fact I recall raping you in 1.02 when Gondor shat on Rohan every which way. What I'm saying is that your gandy micro failed.
