Defeating large groups of enemies -
Have a lot of defensive structures in your base and teleport the
opponents to your base. The towers should kill the enemies before they
can do much damage. The Convert spell will also work, because they are
free men.
General strategies -
Do not just rush your opponent's territory. Either send in a camo
capable unit or a very cheap, weak unit such as Orc Warriers. Check out
your opponent's base before attacking with stronger units. When
attacking, use melee soldiers to attack buildings and use Bowmen and
Cavalry on enemy units.
Grey Havens -
Start at the bottom-most part. Build as many resource collectors as
possible. Then, capture the Shipright. Get Builders to build Wall Hubs
where the Cave Trolls lair is found (kill it first). Build a wall, then
build units and an upgrade structure. Get your units upgraded as much as
possible. Put some by the wall to defend it. Send the rest to the
Shipright. Build the number of transports needed. Put the units by the
Shipright onto the transports. Send the transports to the enemy camp.
Optionally, split your units up and surround the camp. Destroy all the
structures except for the fortress. Finally, destroy the fortress.
Ring Heroes -
All maps in Skirmish and Multiplayer mode have Gollum cloaked on it.
When you find Gollum, kill him and you will get the ring. Take it back
to your fortress and have the troop that is carrying the ring enter the
fortress in order to recruit a Ring Hero for 9,000 resources. The Ring
Hero does not use any command points. Men, Elves, and Dwarves can
recruit Galadriel. Mordor, Isengard, and Goblins can recruit Sauron. The
easiest way to get the ring is to let an enemy find Gollum then kill
them after they obtain the ring. The only way to stop them before they
reach their base is to chase them down with a mounted unit, have a
created hero teleport into their path, or to summon allies into their
path using a power.
