Battle For Middle-Earth Good Campaign Map 16, Act 16 - Osgiliath

Send all troops back to the main camp immediately & leave the bridges for the moment. May not be like the film but it helped me.

When troop levels have been built up & upgraded if you've managed to hold off all the Mordor evils assaulting you, head south & establish a second base. This may take some time though. Train more archer - soldier battalions to defend northern camp initially. When forge has upgraded buy all upgrades & spend on troops as soon as resources are sufficient. Just keep these 2 bases well defended for now until at full power & start the attack on the southern bridge.

When Eomer finally arrives, send everyone south to build a second camp. Good way of building up experience points for all whilst you are waiting for resources to build up to upgrade everyone

This lot (621 for 290 Command Points) took ages to upgrade but I managed to keep every attack at bay without losing everyone. After another cup of tea I had enough resources to upgrade everyone & start thrashing the camp to the south east of the map. I have plenty of fully upgraded archers for the abandoned towers now as well.

After a few scary attacks on the northern camp I decided to send 2 battalions of Soldier - Archers fully upgraded. Group rest of archers together & horses in another group & when ready headed across to southern bridge. Beware of Nazgul as soon as you cross the bridge so send all your fire archers first & kill him. There will be another Nazgul somewhere so don't rest easy yet.

I decided to use my Rohirrim & Elves as bait to draw the Nazgul to my fire archers.

I had managed to destroy the first enemy camp across the river before the other Nazgul appeared & had a go at my trebuchets. Sent archers back to finish it off.

Build up & defend camp before heading east to destroy the second enemy camp.

Built new camp & build stone works in all camps to fortify.

When ready head for the last camp in the north & start strategic attacks & retreats.

I lost a few troops but then if there's only one structure left not much of a threat. West back to southern camp to regenerate.
