we felt it was a good game and worthy of a post. they were able to get revenge on us in the rematch, but i do feel this was the better game (being as unbiased as i can ). i forgot to put Review in the title so if any RR reads this, please can i get a review?
A good game, although not very entertaining, it was quite skillful. The game was reasonably even for a good while, but when Isengard sent it's army, containing Berserkers, Pikes and a level 5 Lurtz, the game turned around. Anadune's Fort was destroyed in no time and so was his base, leaving only Diamond to fight the two GoS members. But Diamond couldn't hold them off and it was only a matter of time before he too would be defeated. Overall, quite a good game, but not that entertaining.
GoS[Puscifer] & GoS[Rashnu]
Well played by you two, although there were a few mistakes. Firstly, use Wargs for harassing, they are highly adept at it. Secondly, get the Signal Fires, they give -25% recharge time per Signal Fire. Just imagine, having both, to have RC recharged every 45 seconds, to have Earthquake twice as fast as normal. Third and last, try not to let the Thrall Master be flanked, this happened often and caused the entire battalion to die instantly.
Tips for improvement
Use Wargs for harassing.
Get the Signal Fires, they might seem insignificant, but they are priceless if you can hold both of them.
Try not to let the Thrall Master be flanked, your army's size will rapidly lower if you don't.
DARK|Diamond & DARK|Anadune
Averagely played, although I expected better of you. Firstly, you shouldn't trample pikes with BW's, avoid them at all costs as BW's are very weak to them. Secondly, get the Fort's oil casks and/or Wall Hubs to counter mass enemy attacks. Thirdly, don't leave your base completely empty, always leave some protection behind or you may find your base in ruins, destroyed and plundered after an enemy raid. Last, get more heroes, alternate between the two who should get which hero as that saves you both money and time.
Tips for improvement
Don't trample pikes with BW, but go around them and worm a way past them.
Get the Fort's oil casks and Wall Hubs to counter mass enemy attacks.
Always leave some protection in your base behind or you may find yourself without one.
Get more heroes, if you are both of the same faction, let one get hero #1 and the other hero #2 to save you both time and resources.
