Expanding the story with the campaign focusing on the northern parts of the war during the Third Age, the game scrapped Rohan and Gondor and instead merged them into the Men faction. The sequel of the famous Battle For Middle Earth 1, Battle For Middle Earth 2 and its expansion Wrath Of The Witch King, brought in a few changes in the mix, some for better, others for worse. Replayability: 7/10.В Despite it being a great game, once you have played the campaign there is no reason to play again, and the skirmishes are fun but can get rather boring, since you cannot effectively replicate the great sieges of the Third Era.

It is fun, engaging and can make even playing skirmishes fun, and also double as stress relief. Gameplay: 10/10.В The camp system offers a variety of different gamestyles and a unique mechanic I have not seen before in any RTS. Even if this game managed to bring most CPU's to their knees back in the day, today it still is impressive for an RTS. Graphics: 9/10.В Both games have similar graphics and animations, and they both hold up even to this day. Music: 8/10.В Great music, great soundtrack, very lord of the rings-esque. But how does it fare in the fields of the Tussle? Easy to learn, a joy to watch, this is a fan favorite for many, many reasons.

It offered four factions, Gondor, Rohan, Mordor and Isengard and that camp system we talked about on the other article. The original big guy, Battle For Middle earth appeared with an amazing campaign, that allowed you to carry your armies through each mission in a sort of 'RISK' style campaign.
