Avoid "War in Middle Earth".  It has really pretty graphics, but is 
virtually unplayable (due to the most tedious, unwieldy user interface 
I have ever seen).  A friend of mine bought it, and among a group of
5 Amiga users (and Tolkien fans, I should note), none of us thought the
game worth playing.

Sorry to be the bearer of ill tidings.  :)
