Question to devs about balance and few suggestions
I play for Dol Guldur. On day 56 the situation is next: Gondor had already taken East Osgiliath from Mordor and after that destroyed Umbar. Is it intended to be so? In earlier builds of mod usually Mordor and allies pressured on Gondor.

Regarding Dol Guldur's concept. Most troops of Guldur have same names as Mordor troops and it causes problem in quest 'Dispatch scout party' because for example orc of Mordor does not recognized as Dol Guldur unit so player is limited to use only snagas and trackers to complete this quest. It would be logically to rename orc of mordor to orc of guldur, warg rider of gorgoroth to rider of dark hill etc. Concerning rank names it would be nice to change them as well on more appropriate for this faction like: 'Gaoler', 'Dungeon Overseer' etc also it would ve great to create a shield with Dol Guldur insignia and add 'Dol Guldur War Party' to differentiate this faction from Mordor.

And the last: can you rename 'Champion of Arnor' to 'High Swordsman of Arnor' as it was earlier?

It is the randomness of the game, this time Imrahil launched an assault on East Osgiliath who succeeded. So at this point the game is going to be totally different.
Gondor will no longer be on the defensive, but will be aggressive. So Umbar subsequently fell due to his isolation.
You have an extremely rare course, so take advantage ^^

It is not randomness. I ran TLD campaign half a year ago and situation with East Osgiliath was the same but it was acceptable. In current build Imrahil's fresh army consists around 330+ troops (Gothmog's host max is 200+) and few other Gondor lords have around 180+ troops each host. With such numbers and quality of soldiers the outcome is predictable... The only way to prevent pitiful end is to hang out with Mordor all the time while filthy elves deal heavy pressure on my northern allies. If I played for Good on this run there would no sense to aid Gondor because in current build it is OP and able to destroy Mordor and allies without any help.

It absolutely is.

Just because in your one game, Gondor gained some slight footholds does not mean Gondor is overpowered. I played a game a couple weeks ago where West Osgiliath fell and 3 Gondorian lords had perma-died by the 50th day, and the forces of Gondor were "Weak" while the forces of Mordor had lost 0 lords and were "Very Strong".

Hm, that's strange. Did you play with nightly patch installed?

The gondor has lost 100% in all my games, I have never had the case where the gondor is taken over the mordor ... Why always the others !!!!!

I am playing with the latest version of the mod.
