    00:00 Introduction
    01:42 Storm the Camp is a good scenario.
    04:14 The warband system sucks.
    06:39 Ingold is better than Hurin.
    09:29 Angmar is perfectly balanced.
    12:29 Legendary Legions should be for narrative play only.
    16:15 Value of a hero shouldn't be whether it can make its points back.
    24:42 Trolls need a buff.
    28:33 Profile stats should max at 12.
    30:24 Heroic Channeling sucks.
    33:46 Shooting should be better.
    37:37 Durin is a great hero.

    00:00 Introduction
    00:59 The game isn’t balanced
    07:30 Armies should have weaknesses
    11:32 It’s worth spending Might to kill warriors
    16:45 Elite armies are overlooked
    21:08 Heroic Strike is overrated
    27:25 Special Strikes are not well designed
    29:17 Fight Value is overrated
    30:50 The Forsaken is the best
    32:04 Isengard is the best
    33:37 Alliance Matrix isn’t needed
    35:00 We need less supplements
    36:46 Rangers of Ithilien was overnerfed
    38:59 Bring back Volley Fire
    40:59 Skill is more important than a good list
    43:16 Not everything needs a profile
    45:36 Azog/Bolg shouldn’t be F7
    47:08 Suladan is fine
    49:24 Knight of Umbar doesn’t suck
    50:48 Glorfindel & Rivendell suck
    52:46 Isengard Berserkers should have Burly
    54:08 Siege engines should be banned
    55:50 Maelstrom deployment should alternate
    57:30 Mounted heroes suck
    01:00:39 Veto system limits army variety
    01:03:04 Lower point games are more fun
