      It is a hard level.Ssomehow both harder to defend and harder to siege
      Mainly because there is not enough empty apace in the castle to build upon
      And harder to siege because its a very defensible fort with multiple small pockets. So if one falls, rest still could stand on and wait until the sieger's forces melt down trying to blitz into citadel

      @Alexandria M Yeah, low usage of Legolas's "Uzi" ability, Gimli, Aragorn, Theoden and Eowyn should defend side entrance to castle and archers should take care of enemy ranged units first. The same group of crossbow Uruks on the outer wall was grinding elvish archers i guess wole time.

    When this game first came out and I tried this mission... i failed... hard.
    Then I decided a change in tactics: recruit units for defense, but at the start, keep your heroes outside to the right. They will focus down a big part of the army and also are able to destroy atleast one of the camps a lot faster, making this mission way easier.

The pictures of the heroes look wider than they are tall and the map circle is wider than it is tall? Is that just because of the upload or does it look like that when you're playing the game

    ah, see i played the battle for middle earth 2 game, and i gotta say, if you play the elves and get them maxed out with weapons and armor upgrades? all you gotta do is put 3 units at the main gate and 2 ranger units on the side that have the long distance sniping ability? i have had a 3V1 max difficulty against the 3 mordor classes at once and they never make it past the front gate...the AI is very poorly done and repetitive and they ONLY go after the front gate so no matter how much they attack me they are all basically funneled into that one spot and are just blown away by archers before they do too much damage....sometimes they destroy the gate but by then there are so few units left that are already heavily damaged they get through the gate just to be finished off by the towers i set up behind it...and then i just repair the gate...usually i can just sit back and let themselves break against my defenses over and over and just rack up the points i need for special abilities and i can straight up destroy one of their bases if i hit them with everything at once, cuz i can summon a flood, tom bombadil, the ents, the eagles, a squad of hobbits, a barrage of arrows and a few other things and just annihilate an entire area before they all disappear...what i like to do is rinse and repeat that tactic (which takes a long while) but i use that time to max out my army with the best weapons and armor, back them up with at least one hero and then send them all out at once to attack the last base and then add the special perk units in as well and just obliterate them at the end....ah...good times

I have been able to hold up in the third level but during the third wave they breach the upper gate and shit gets messy. I have made it to when gandalf and eomer arrive but just as soon as they do another fully upgraded wave attacks and wipes them completely out. Is anyone else stuck facing this crazy impossible mission? I mean this video he has 750 command and the Uruks are WAY less upgraded. Its kind of ruining the game for me because I cant change the patch with my save and I can't pass this level no matter what.

    have you ever played the Good campaign in this patch? I'm totally stuck at this Helm's Deep mission! Archers in this patch are do much weaker than in v1.0, I could barely hold until reinforcements, with uruks filling the whole keep xD and even then, fully upgraded 240 supply of Rohirrim that came with Eomer and Gandalf, couldn't even make a dent in Isengard's forces. I had full supply of Elven archers on the walls, backed by heroes and statues for buffs, but I didn't have Cloudbreak because you can't get it by then yet, while the siege will start with Isengard's Rain power x_x...
    Also flaming arrows are total sh*t vs ladders and siege xD
