Act 4 is very hard :(

Act 4 is very very hard , legendry orcs with level 55 minimum is requied , also act 4 has 10 stages :( .

Its quite easy actually. I get tired of repeating always the same actually... it gets kinda... repetitive lol.

Get as upgrades
Best wall
Iron Gate (switch to flame spitters if they field Ologs)
Shield Units
Dragon (the one behind the gate that spits fire at gate attackers) Graug is also okay-ish but it wont last that long.
Toxic Towers (usually warchiefs are more affective to Toxic than to Fire or Curse as far as i can tell)
Spikes on the wall (prevent those pesky pals to run up the wall !)
Toxic mines if you got that far (i dont even unlocked it and its superb easy lol)

So, if the fight starts i hope you got the Summon Dragon ability unlocked from Carnan questline, otherwise the usual Dragon of the enemy will do the job - mount a dragon and ASAP go for the Graug Towers of the enemies, sometimes you barely manage to kill them but DO NOT LET THEM HIT THE GATE even after their ballistic backpack is gone !! Kill them !

Afterwards fly ASAP left and right to look for Ologs or possible Olog Warchiefs (most dangerous because they will after a time knock down the wall !) And try to subdue them !
After you manage to hold the first and second line without a wall break and subdue'd almost all of the chiefs the other ones will start to get slaughtered outside of the walls by their own men.
After you subdue'd the first 2-3 it gets quite easy because they are usually strong. If you dont want to bother with someone and dont have time to kill him simply "break him" so he leaves the battlefield. Also ALL weaknessess are unlocked so always CHECK them. Abuse them.

Frankly, if you can keep the fight outside of the walls it gets SUPERB easy, yet sometimes a bit difficult to do so if they field alog of ologs.


Also, if somehow your caged dragon gets free - mount him and use him against the enemy before he burns your units !!

Hope that helps a bit :)

One ending in after act 3 and act 4 have 10 stages also 2nd bonus ending

Its super easy. I just level the orcs the same level as i am (takes maybe 1 hour max for every orc in my fortress) and then just play the game.

act 4 is about 50 % of the game.

it is more of a thing you do after you finish the main game rather then a part of the main story however

[Derrame]

just keep tryng and dominate and recruit every single captain you find

[LegTheFish]

thing i hate is later on 95% of the orcs are lvl 61-65 so you cant recruit any of them without shaming them first wich ruin all of there stats most of the time.
make sure you got decent roster of orcs goin into shadow wars
