Balance:
- Battle Troll's Blood Thirst now costs 50 mana.
- Killing battering rams can be very punishing for Isengard and somtimes determine if a game is won or lost. To make Isengard rely a bit less on rams, the following changes were done:

Version 6.0 BETA8 (27/01/2019)
General:
Because of the recent gameplay reworks including auto training, captains rework, Isengard heroes buff and many others, the game seems to be more forgiving for Isengard whereas one big mistake from Rohan can cost the game.
Most wins by Isengard are earned from big losses for Rohan in earlier stages and then won in the 5-15 minutes-before-Gandalf range.
Most games won by Rohan are already over when Rohan had successful holds on the outer walls and then executes a smooth retreat, conducting to high upgrades for Rohan and a lot of archers remaining.
While the balance seems good, the longer games allows for more Rohan mistakes which tips in favor of Isengard. To retain the balance but make the games shorter:
- Gandalf time is reduced to 30 minutes down from 35 minutes.
- Bomb timer is reduced to 8 minutes down from 11 minutes.
- Gates life are reduced to 90 000 (-10%) for main, hall and cave. Keep remains at 50 000. This may give up to a minute back to Isengard.
New Hero for Isengard! Mirhúk the Slayer (Dark Green):
- Agility based
- Can switch between bow and sword
- Bow has a short range and slow attack with high damage
- Sword has a fast attack and 50% chance to parry
- Skills:
- Assassinate (sword only): high damage life steal + bleeding damage and slow for a duration.
- Morgul Arrows (bow only): Damage over time added to arrows
- White Hand Banner: A banner with a damage aura (60 seconds span life and cooldown; no mana cost)
- The Four Slayers(ult): Three slayers join Mirhúk in the fight (60 seconds span life)
Balance:
- Mauhur Call of the Wargs is now over 20 seconds up from 15 (same damage overall). This will leave more time for defenders to react.
- Troll damage reduction reduced to 22 from 25 (-12%). In conjunction with Troll Regeneration, the damage reduction made the troll a bit too resistant to be handled by a restrained number of archers in the later stages of the game.
- Haldir can now use any skill but Elf Swiftness in Archer form.
- Legolas' Enemy Weakness now deals 20/30/40/50 bonus damage and costs 3/4/5/6 mana (old values were 10/20/30/40 and 2/3/4/5). This should help sniping specific units faster such as crossbowmen which can be difficult to deal with when Rohan has only a few archers remaning.
- Crossbowmen collision size up to 20 from 15 to match other archers.
Bugs:
- Troll should no longer damage himself with Swipe.
- Fixed Dark Aura disabled learn icon.

- Blood Thirst (ult): Increased attack speed and AoE damage on hit for a duration.
Balance:
- Removed 3 banners, moved the others around a bit to make them more disputable.
- Bombs will now damage gates as well as units.
- Bombs now deal less damage.

Gameplay / Balance
- Reworked elves upgrades, which are now different than Rohan:
- Elves warriors and archers now start out with the same armor (1, changed from 3 and 0)
- Archers and Warrios have a common armor upgrade (+1 per level)
- Warriors have a shield upgrade to increase their base armor (+2), and unlock a damage reduction ability (-3 damage / 50% chance) with 3 levels of upgrade.
- Rohan/Elves gold base per upgrade is higher, but gold increment per level is lower, amounting to a slightly higher price overall.
- Reworked the Rohan Captain.
- Now banners are at the former captains spots and give Proudness (damage aura) and Resilience (armor aura)
- New unit: King's Guard, strong warrior.
- Rohan Strength Aura: higher health regeneration.
- Can restore a broken banner for 150 gold.
- Reworked the auto train feature (which was not really working):
- Now activates only for uruk hai swordsmen.
- When a swordsman is trained, another is queued every second.
- Auto train stops when the player cancels the production or trains another unit than swordsman.
- Removed critical strike / evasion to some units for less floating text and to make more sense. Example:
- Rohirrims and Warg Riders don't have evasion anymore;
- Rohan militia and Uruk Swordsman don't have either anymore.
- Added "Wide Slash" to Aragorn to replace "Stunning" : Aragorn slashes an area before him, damaging, stunning and knocking back enemies in the area.
- Climbing Down a ladder will now play an animation instead of teleporting the unit down.
- Berserkers are very good when buffed and dealing AoE damage, but end up being a waste if they are not properly buffed. To make them less of a binary unit, their balance has been changed.
- Cleaving Attack down to 8% from 10% (-20%).
- HP up from 550 to 660 (+20%).
- Warg Riders feel too well rounded and have no weakness in the end game.
- Armor type changed to medium (extra damage from melee attacks).
- Base armor down to 7 from 10. Armor Upgrades now give +3 armor up from +2.
- Bounty up to 6 from 3.
Bugs:
- Bounties were not activated if a player slot was empty.
- Fixed replacements names on the scoreboard.
