    The other guides are fine but they don't seem to have picked up on the fact you actually get a branded warchief as part of the story missions as said around 15 or 16, it's a queens mission and can use him any time you want to get this.

    One thats complete and you have the branded warchief simply go to his mission marker on the map it will be a blue skull icon as opposed to the red one, highlight him in the army menu if you can't find him, Go there press RB to start the mission, there is no mission, all it will do is make him appear and he won't be hostile as he's branded, grab him with RB, A to dominate, Y to command choose Riot achievement unlocked.

    IN YO FACE 86Can this be done after I'm done with the story?

    Runner7922This worked fine. Just to confirm:
    - You can cause the riot by attacking a captain, not just a warlord as indicated in the description.
    - You can still do this after you complete the main story.

    Step 1: Find and fight a Warchief (Must have "Command" unlocked from Main Mission progress)
    Step 2: Weaken him until he "surrenders". (Do not use executions when he is in low health, he must stay alive!)
    Step 3: When he surrenders, choose "Dominate" then "Command"
    Step 4: In the Sauron Army screen, choose another Warchief (unbranded) and "Riot" to attack him.

    I'll Just like to add to these great guides that you can even command a warchief to riot against a captain and still get the achievement. I had all 5 warchiefs branded and took a gamble with a captain and it popped.

    UnwiltingI'm so glad this guide is here, because I had all warchiefs branded too. Saved me some hassle.
