How do I recruit Ologs?
I managed to make one flee and when I jumped on his back I could only stab him. Then when I hopped off I killed him :(

If you mean dominating them there is an unlock in the consume skill tree. It allows you to dominate ologs with consume. But for captains its the same as the orcs.

Huh, I must have just gotten unlucky then thanks :) A second question are they ever equipped with anything other then the mace? The picture ingame shows one with a flamethrower and I would LOVE to get one with that :P

The first answer is wrong. You have to stand in front of them and just hold in the brand button (b on Xbox controller) you can't grab them to brand

I've seen a few uruks with hook weapons as well. I'm wondering specifically about ologs though :)

Thanks for the clarification. But the consume skill is still true OP, makes it a lot easier in battle when you can just push a button.

Very true. Especially if you dont use the might upgrade where you lose all might if your combo breaks. That way you can pocket a combat brand and just beat up on the olog until he is broken

Ok I know am retarded to respond 3 years later but the Olag with a flame thrower I actually got as a captain the Olags name is Ur-Lisak the Destroyer found him in Nurnen.

i've had quite a few Ologs join my cause, one even betrayed me, cheated death, shamed into losing his iron will and rejoined me. They can be tricky because they are a lot bigger in stature and size when fighting. i even stealth killed one Olog captain from a ledge with a big drop below, i'm surprised middle earth didn't shatter in two when the Olog landed below.

That one Olog that betrayed me had a harpoon launcher on his back that he'd use to bring his enemy to him, but most of the time it is useless because the target is moving around.

To get a flamethrower, you need two things:

1. For a NON-TRACKER olog to generate with that canon-looking device on his back (trackers get a harpoon, which more or less functions like a larger version of the Machine Tribe grapple-hook)

2. For that same olog to have FIRE weapons.

3. (Bonus) Try to work it so that he also has a gang of ologs and an elite gang. You now have three-to-four flamethrowers on the field of battle.
