Start recruiting men there and also one Eorling Axemen unit in Helms deep just in case Isengard closes up on you. Theodred, the governor, is a decent general and can potentially become incredibly valuable if you play your cards right. You must also begin mustering men in the east by Woldberg. Send Theoden and his army towards the west and try to seize the Isengard city. Your frontline should look something like on the screenshots below. It is turn 5 and time to become offensive. I assume one of your generals received one of the traits mention above? if so then good job! If not then its always another time. Its the city closes to Isengard and if both of you have better roads constructed, you can actually reach Isengard in one turn, or if one of your generals have improved movement points. You also have enough money to construct a landclearance in Foldburg. Recruit a couple of units if you feel like its needed, and do so in your frontline cities. Dont raise the taxes if you only have 1 unit/general there, because then they might riot and you will end up with nothing but dead citizens and we certainly dont want that! Move your diplomat and Theoden as well. Remember that you do not get it every time. This can increase your income drastically. By doing this your general can earn traits such as Trader, Skilled Bureaucrats, Architect and Taxmen. Your dirt roads should be finished next turn, so before you end your turn, raise the taxes in those cities to very high. Now, this turn I am going to give you an important tip. There is not much more to do this turn so end the turn again and you should now be on turn 4. Move Theodens army further towards Gineard and send your army from Helms Deep to Foldburg to support your frontline.
Send out your general from Gineard and have him make watchtowers in the west. Rohan does not start its campaign with a diplomat and if you wish to maintain a stabile economy you must establish trade agreements, even sometimes with your enemies. It is your safest city and home to more than 2600 inhabitants. You will only have about 2300 if you did what I did, so I suggest you construct a Bowyer in Aldburg. Move King Thengel and Lord Theoden`s army towards Gineard where they will combine their forces with the ones already garrisoned in the village. Send your spy to Isengard and end turn! Turn 2 is up. If you want to raise taxes in the other cities then you can do so if you wish, but some of them actually have a chance of upgrading to the next level within 50 - 60 turns. Raise the taxes in Edoras because it is already a huge city and will not grow fast enough to reach the next level. I start by moving my units towards the west where Isengard will without doubt soon invade you. Giving you more tradeable goods as well as a faster way between your cities. In Entwade and Woldberg I begin the construction of roads. They are quite powerful if you wield them correctly. In Edoras and Hornburg I construct a barracks because you can`t have your armies consisting only of cavalry. The third option, which is also my favorite, is to mix option one and two. That is why you must always have an army ready to face the enemy. The second option is to make your kingdom insanely rich, thus enabling you to defeat the mighties of enemies, but beware! If you only construct economical buildings your plan might backfire because Isengard will take advantage of your lack of military.
The first option is to go all in for recruiting units, making your kingdom a military powerhouse, though remember that it can cause your economy to be crippled. At turn one you must choose one of three ways for Rohan. It can work to blitz Isengard in the beginning of your campaign, but remember that you must NOT only have your armies consist of cavalry only. This very reason is caused by too much focus on war and creating huge armies. If you have ever played Rohan, you must know that you will sometimes have your economy drop drastically. They are the generals you will be using most of the time because of their ability to win nearly all battles.
You start with several generals, including both King Thengel and Lord Theoden. It is a mighty realm with several strong cities, the most powerful of them all Helms Deep and Edoras. What you see infront of you now, is your kingdom.
