@@minifireball1170 That’s where I disagree. True, there is a lot of prep work, the payoff is so high the time invested seems negligible. And having every Orc be a spy basically means the Fort is already conquered, with only the Overlord to face. But I’m not saying it being OP is a bad thing, because it’s offline only.
@@DigitalRRS I mean I think that’s kind of the point. The game gives you the option of how to conquer the fort; ahead of time (gradually), or not. I don’t think it’s so much overpowered as just a different route the game gives you, and I think they made it like that on purpose, because it holds true irl. The more planning you do the easier it will be.
@@SamaeL_XVII yes, probably. I have seen the one being kille being one that was not even a chief. And one of your orcs can say "He wasn't one us" or something along thoose lines.
Warlord: 'Oh for crying out loud, is there anyone here, *NOT* on his side?' *The fort cook coming out of the kitchen* 'I didn't want to make a fuss, buuut.'
When it comes to Conquering a fort with or without spies, it’s essentially deciding if you wanna take the fort now on Hard difficulty, or in 2 hours on easy difficulty. Because if you do it on the spot it’s harder with a lot more enemies to face but spend an hour or two getting spies in and you only fight a single enemy, it’s a 5 minute battle
It's also quite satisfying to take down this cocky punk of an overlord who hides away in his little throne room like this. He thinks he has everything under control. Then you pull the rug out from under him and tell him he was never in control.
" i know every move you make before you make it". Fair to say Lorm the wrestler was not good at reading situations because this isn't a smart thing to say after all your warchiefs have betrayed you.
Still hate it how the regular minions still remain on the overlord's side. Would have been way much of a reward for all the sneaking and tracking you did to turn all these guys, if EVERYONE in the room would turn on the Overlord.
But the nice thing with the grunts still being on the overlord side is it gives you something to do while your warlords beat the s*** out of the overlord
I decapitated someone as well from the head and they came back with their head back on he was a like a machine kind of orc or something ......I fought that man like 12 times he would escape Everytime and come back with a vengeance.. this game is truly amazing
Yeah, pretty sure in the last game the decapitation was either a guaranteed permadeath for an Orc or massively reduced the chain that they'll return. In this one, getting decapitated is just an inconvenience. They'll just staple their head back on or have a bag tied to their neck to hold it on.
Not fun when it happens to you tho. Had it before when I was about to beat an Orc and got betrayed by 4 of my generals at the same time. Had to put them all down

This gave me an idea. When it comes to defending your forts, fully upgrade them and give the Overlord and all Warchiefs bodyguards. Stack as many captains as possible
That’s normally how I defended my forts. I left no captain without a position on the map. I even took it a step further. Whenever I had captains that were blood brothers, I would always put them as the bodyguards to either the overlord or the war chiefs, so when you attack one, the other gets enraged, and vice versa. It’s even better when all of your war chiefs are protected by blood brothers, so I barely ever got conquered.
I found that workless captains tend to betray you more often. After all, you know the saying: idle hands are the devil’s playthings. This is why I had an elaborate array of captain teams that defended the generals, who then defended the war boss. Everyone had something to do, and no one had any plan of betrayal, that is unless you betray one of their trusts.

He's currently only level 35, but I've pitted him against a level 80 Captain in a "friendly" pit fight and he still almost won that fight despite a gap of 45 levels between them!
I played Shadow of Mordor giving warchiefs like 3 different bodyguards under my control and just easily destroying them. Conquering zones in this game was so much easier than that. I'd jump into a new area to conquer, I'd do two warchief missions and dominate all the captains and the warchiefs. Then I'd storm the castle with my small army dominating all the enemy captains and warchiefs as I conquer the fort.
With that persuasion and tactical prowess Talion would have ended the whole "The Lord of the Rings"-Trilogy in the first 5 minutes of the first movie if he would have been part of the Fellowship of the Ring. Like: Gandalf: "Frodo, you will have to..." Talion: "No, he won't. Thank me later."
Fun fact: your allied captains can friendly fire other Friendly's (including executions) even if it's not a betrayal. I literally siedged a fort and lost only 2 captains who bothe died to my other captains.
Just reminded me of a time I maxed out the number if spies on an overlord, almost all of them being legendary. I literally didn’t even reach them before the overlord was dead.

"Good plan boss, they 'ad no idea"
My biggest issue with this game aside from the story was the fact your orcs could betray you. Seemingly for no reason it was a frustrating game mechanic.
One time one of my orcs betrayed me IN MY OWN FORT. Suffice to say, I gave him a second chance
Imagine if every war chief was a spy there would be a ambush mission where they would gang up on the overlord and the fort is automatically yours
They need to give talion some character too other than the main story some banter between him and the enemy
When you go in to take over the throne but you see Talion sitting on the throne as soon as you walk in
"Why has everyone been wearing blue lately?"
No reason…
I like each war chief revealing themselves like he's getting the gang back together lmao
I've never taken a fort any other way.
The time it took for him to walk from the tower to sit on his throne was longer than the siege.
