Today’s game is some more Shadow of Mordor. I unlocked Caragor mounting today and legitimately I’m so happy. I have a soft spot for anything vaguely feline and the Caragors are no exception. So to have some sort of semi pacifist option to keep them alive is so nice. I’ve stopped killing them and started going out of my way to keep them alive now.

I ended up doing all the War Chiefs too. I worked especially hard to get one called Maku the Funny all the way up to War Chief. This guy is honestly my personal favorite so far. I doubt Shadow of war will let you carry troops over, but I wish it did just so I could have Maku.

Outside of Maku, I spent all day just hunting War Chiefs and officers and bringing my guys up. It made me feel like I was in that one scene from The Two Towers movie where they’re chasing the Uruk-hai.

The game really likes to make me visit this one specific fort over and over. Most troops seem to spawn here. My guess is because it’s got a high population density compared to the rest of the area, so the chance is higher there.

Now that I’ve got my army setup, I think next I’m going to work some more on the story to get through that. The branding system has made stealth a lot easier because I can brand a few snipers before leaping into combat. Then I have some coverage.

If you enjoyed this game, you’ll really like shadow of war. It expands on a lot of the systems introduced in mordor and I really enjoy the nemesis system in that game, especially at higher difficulties.
I love these posts and don’t mean to complain but atleast for me it seems every image except the initial one is broken. It’s only able to load the first image.
Same here
Here as well.
Thanks for confirming it’s not my setup.
You are amazing. I have not paid super deep attention to these but seem them nearly every time you post and think that what you are doing is really cool.
I’m curious what your Steam replay looks like
