Battle For Middle-Earth Evil Campaign Map 35, Act 17 - Druadan Forest

Starts with an empty medium camp on the mid west border. I start building resource buildings as usual & sent Pikes south & all others north. The Pikes soon encounter an attack from the east. They don't last long against the fire crossbows but do release enough command points to build 2 more hordes of Wargs.

A stray Troll & Goblin Lair to the north release a few more command points.

With the Pikes holding the fort to the south, Saruman & the crossbows head further east along the northern border. Another medium camp is established for more resource buildings. I've now build 2 more hordes of Wargs & am waiting for them to be upgraded before sending them into action.

Looks like the main Gondor camp is to the mid south. Should mean I can send Saruman & the crossbows to carry on clockwise & clear up the rest of the map whilst the Pikes hold on to the south west.

Looks like a large Rohan camp to the mid east as well. Should keep the Balrog busy for a while.

I decide to destroy the Rohan camp first & make a good start by summoning the Balrog outside the gates & destroying them.

One fiery breath destroys the Citadel & both Archery Ranges. I make the most of the Balrog with the other buildings & send Saruman & the Crossbow combos to finish off.

With everyone regenerated & few more Wargs built & the Balrog ready I decide to start on the Gondor camp. Again I manage to get close enough to blow the doors away & take out a few Tower Guards in the process.

Prize for Total Victory - +1 Power.
Total Score = 252,946 - Total Victory.

I manage to build another 4 hordes of Wargs so carry on with Saruman now with 220 Uruks & 30 Warg Riders to Cair Andros for +3 Power. This is the last map before the final battle at Minas Tirith or the Battle of Pelennor Fields as in the book. I've done numerous skirmishes with the Cair Andros map so know it well. Shouldn't take too long to conquer then have a rest before the final battle. I know Minas Tirith will take quite some time due to the scripted entries of Rohan, all the Evil reinforcements & Aragorn with the Army of The Dead.
