                       Gandalf Walkthrough (4) 
                      Level 25: Rohan - Plains 
                        ------------------------ 
                        Difficulty: Medium 
                        Quick Hint: Explore; Follow the paths 
                        Starting Location: Top (NW corner) 
                        Ending Location: SE corner 
                        Shrines: SW corner (Forge) 
                      Detailed Guide: 
                        Upon entering the level, start going down until you can
                        turn left. Keep going left until you reach the West edge
                        of the level. Go down until you hit a wall or see a dirt
                        path. If you go down to the wall, walk to the right along
                        the wall. If you notice the path, start walking on it.
                        Either way, pause when you reach a gap. Go throught the
                        gap and go left until you reach the west edge of the level
                        again. Go down. When you are stopped by rocks, walk to the
                        left until you can go down through them. Turn left if you
                        want to use the shrine, otherwise, just walk right to
                        reach the end of the level. 
                      ---------------------------------------------------------- 
                      Level 26: Rohan - Plains (Version 2) 
                        ----------------------- 
                        Difficulty: Medium 
                        Quick Hint: Exit the level 
                        Starting Location: NW corner 
                        Ending Location: SE corner 
                        Shrines: None 
                      Detailed Guide: 
                        Walk down along the western edge of the level. When you
                        reach a long wall, start walking to the right along the
                        wall. There will be a rock or two obstructing your path,
                        but keep your eye on the wall until you see a gap which
                        can be identified because it is between two large rocks.
                        Walk in between the rocks and turn left. Keep going left
                        until you reach the western edge of the level. There, turn
                        and start going downwards until you encounter another long
                        wall. Start walking to the right along the wall. Walk
                        fairly close to the wall, because if you walk close
                        enough, you can avoid alerting some the Crebain on your
                        path. Keep going right until you reach the end of the
                        level! 
                      ---------------------------------------------------------- 
                      Level 27: Rohan - Eastemnet South 
                        --------------------------------- 
                        Difficulty: Medium 
                        Quick Hint: Find the Rohan soldiers 
                        Starting Location: SW corner 
                        Ending Location: SE corner 
                        Shrines: Top (Forge) 
                      Detailed Guide: 
                        Obviously, the only path you can take at the beginning of 
                        this level is up. Be VERY careful though, because 5 crows
                        will be on this path, and you should tread carefully as
                        to not alert them before you can kill them with some well
                        aimed magic attack. Keep going up until you reach the
                        very top of the level. When you do, walk to the right
                        until you reach a river. Walk down along the riverbank
                        until you see a large bridge across the river. Cross the
                        river on the bridge. Start following the river up. If you
                        go all the way to the top of the screen, you will reach
                        a shrine. If you don't go to the shrine, turn to the right
                        from the river when you see some dirt to the right of you.
                        If you go to the shrine, you can come to this point by
                        going southeast from the shrine until you hit a wall. Go
                        down. You may start seeing Rohan soldiers helping you
                        fight. Make your way down to the Rohan leader: 
                      Cutscene- 
                        Rohan Solider: Halt White Wizard, you are not welcome
                        here! 
                        Gandalf: Eomer of Edoras, I am sent by your Uncle. 
                        Eomer: My Uncle's orders have no sway here. He is
                        corrupted! 
                        Gandalf: No longer Eomer. Saruman's influence has been
                        severed. Theoden is himself again! 
                        Eomer: How do I know you speak the truth? 
                        Gandalf: You will not until you see for yourself.
                        Unfortunately, Saruman's approaching armies makes
                        this an urgent matter. Your Uncle needs you at
                        Helm's Deep. 
                        Eomer: Helm's Deep!? What is happening? 
                        Gandalf: Saruman is hoping to enslave all of Rohan. His
                        armies are moving as we speak. 
                        Eomer: Yes, we have seen the signs already... We will
                        follow you. 
                      ---------------------------------------------------------- 
                      Level 28: Helm's Deep - Hornsberg 
                        --------------------------------- 
                        Difficulty: Easy 
                        Quick Hint: Enter Hornsberg 
                        Starting Location: SE corner 
                        Ending Location: NW corner 
                        Shrines: None 
                      Detailed Guide: 
                        Welcome to Helm's Deep. Follow the darker paved path to
                        the northwest. You will eventually see a bridge and two
                        guards and enter a cutscene: 
                      Cutscene- 
                        Guard: The White Rider! You have returned. 
                        Eomer: He is not alone. 
                        Guard: Eomer! Quickly, Orcs have broken through the Gate! 
                        Gandalf: Keep the Orcs out of the Keep. I will find the
                        others. 
                      Continue towards the building and go across the bridge,
                        and enter the door. 
                      ---------------------------------------------------------- 
                      Level 29: Helm's Deep - Battlements 
                        ----------------------------------- 
                        Difficulty: Hard - Very Hard 
                        Quick Hint: Destroy ALL the ladders 
                        Starting Location: NW corner 
                        Ending Location: SE corner 
                        Shrines: None 
                      Detailed Guide: 
                        Go down the stairs and go right until you see and talk to
                        a guard: 
                      Cutscene- 
                        Gandalf: Soldier, where is the ranger, Aragorn? 
                        Guard: He's with the Elf and Dwarf, protecting the breech! 
                        Gandalf: Then we must keep this enemy at bay ourselves! 
                      Now comes the difficult part. You have to go back and
                        forth across this wall destroying ladders until you have
                        destroyed all of them. Some won't spawn until you have
                        destroyed another. The best stragety is to just go back
                        and forth down the wall killing all the enemies and
                        ladders you encounter. Watch out for explosions that hit
                        your character, as they can cause tremendous damage.
                        When you have knocken down all of the ladders, you will
                        enter another cutscene: 
                      Cutscene- 
                        Gandalf: The Orcs are falling back and regrouping! Hold
                        this wall and wait for me to return. 
                      Exit the level by going to the far right of the level and
                        going down the stairs. 
                      ---------------------------------------------------------- 
                      Level 30: Helm's Deep - Breach 
                        ------------------------------ 
                        Difficulty: Medium 
                        Quick Hint: Defend the breach 
                        Starting Location: Stairs 
                        Ending Location: SW corner 
                        Shrines: None 
                      Detailed Guide: 
                        You start this level on the same stairs you ended the last
                        one on. Go down the stairs, where you will immediately
                        encounter a red colored hero creature. Go down the stairs.
                        Look to the right. Enemies will begin coming in through
                        the breach. You want to kill them all, but it may be hard
                        because enemies will also come from other areas to attack
                        you. If you aren't close enough to the breach sometimes no
                        enemies will spawn. Don't try entering the breach, because
                        that only results in an explosion and a loss of health.
                        When the breach seems to have stopped producing enemies,
                        and you have killed everyone in the level, Gimli will
                        appear near the breach: 
                      Cutscene- 
                        Gandalf: Gimli! Where is Aragorn? 
                        Gimli: Back in the glittering caves, Gandalf. Orcs broke
                        through! 
                        Gandalf: Hold fast, Gimli. 
                      After this cutscene you can exit the level at the west
                        edge of the level.
