==== Scenarios ==== | ==== Scenarios ==== | ||

+ | - Simple Version - this is a simplified version of the original scenario, about 15 less territories, | ||
+ | - Basic Version - not as simple as the simple version, but removes some one-way borders and a couple territories | ||
+ | - Basic Full Map - the Basic Version, plus the territories of Khand and Forodwaith. This is the only scenario with those territories in play. | ||
+ | - Original scenario | ||
+ | - Factory Strongholds - This scenario adds to the original by having owned strongholds generate a +1 bonus to nearby territories (typically 5 or 6 locations) if those locations are also owned. | ||
+ | - Tower Vision version - map fog is heavy in this scenario and stronghold vision is somewhat restricted, but there are 10 towers spread around the map which offer vision to nearby areas. | ||
+ | - The Tower of Orthanc - builds on the original but with Isengard having more value both with bonus and in it's vision of the entire map. | ||
+ | - Shadow of the Balrog - this is a team 3vs1 game, with the forces of good teaming up to constrain and defeat the Balrog. | ||
+ | - Second Age Teams 3v3 - this is a 3v3 team game of good vs evil in a set piece battle during the 2nd Age. | ||
+ | - Second Age Teams 2v2 - this is a 2v2 team game of good vs evil in a set piece battle during the 2nd Age. | ||
====Strategies and Tips==== | ====Strategies and Tips==== | ||
+ | For the Factory stronghold version, take strongholds as early as you can, then try to acquire nearby locations, securing them with 2 or more units. | ||
+ | |||
+ | For the Shadow of the Balrog scenario, it's very important for the Allies to connect to themselves as quickly as possible. | ||
