Shadow of War: How to Recruit Orcs to Your Army

Shadow of War brings back a lot of the same gameplay mechanics we all loved in Shadow

of Mordor.

With that in mind, dominating and branding of Orcs is definitely back and it allows you

to recruit Uruks into your ranks!

Let's go over two ways you can recruit some Captains to bolster your army's forces.

With the first way, you're going to have to find out where an enemy Captain is hanging

out.

This can easily be done by heading over to the pause menu and selecting the Army section.

From here, highlight the captain you'd like to hunt down and select them.

This makes them a mark on your map, and you can easily find their location.

Once you have one of these Captains in front of you, it's time to bring on the pain.

Hurt them until a "broken" icon appears above their head.

It's green and flashes to let you know that it's time to dominate.

At this point, you're going to want to hold the button to do so.

This can be Circle on PS4 or B on Xbox One, depending on what you're playing.

Hold it down until it's completely filled, at which point Talion will grab onto the Uruk's

head.

Choose the "Recruit" option, and you'll have your very own Captain.

If you grab onto an orc that's a higher level than you, you'll need to shame them to make

them lose a few.

At this point, it would be rinse and repeat to get them to join your ranks.
