A great RTS game for all players. There are many modes you can have and the campaigns are long and breath-taking! There are many game types for example Skirmish, Campaign, Online Multilayer and you can make your own maps.
The campaigns are based on the films, "The Lord of the Rings".

There are 4 civilisations: Mordor, Gondor, Rohan and Isengard. The graphics are very detailed and it has clear sounds, some of which have been taken from the film. There is a basic guide for starters and newbies of this game type. There are a few difficulties, Easy to Hard. The Map Maker is also a great and fun thing to do. Make your own maps and post them online or play Skirmish with them. It's really great fun!

This is a brilliant game which never gets boring! And if you are considering to buy it, I would suggest to do so!
