I'm going to give you a strategy to use with the Uruk Hai since I made the original troop list.
Uruk Hai scouts: They are the single best unit Isengard has to offer. They are only worth 1 MWE, but they have an insane advantage over enemies. Each one carries a sword and a bow made from spring steel and yew. Since Uruk hai are stronger than the average man they can fire volleys with greater range than enemy men or even elves. This is ridiculously powerful if used correctly.
If you ever have an army that you need to deal with that's marching, or out in the open, send in a force of Uruk scouts during the night. You can position them in range, but out of enemy range, and use their stealth bonus to prevent enemies seeing them. Then you can rain down and kill hundreds of enemy soldiers. When they start pursuit, you can turn and run using the scout's mobility to get them away from their enemies and get into an advantageous position. Then you can turn back around and fire another volley, all out of range of the enemies. They also have swords to use if they need to.
Their main weakness is Cavalry, as seen in the Two Towers when Ugluk's band of scouts are slaughtered by Eomer's horsemen. They also are fairly weak armoured, so open battlefield combat is not very advantageous. But as far as striking from the shadows and harassing enemy armies, they cannot be beat. You can also use them to lure opponents into traps using the hit and run tactics I described.
Basically, they are the best thing you can use against infantry, especially Bree which is very infantry heavy. I hope you can use them well, I'm very excited to see what they can get done.
Anyway, cheers, and I hope you find this helpful!
