I saw this last time I was in the store and it looked great, but I passed on
it in favor of a game based on Tolken called "War In Middle Earth". Could
someone tell me what Lords' is like when actualy played? War' has very
impressive graphics and digitized sounds, and is a quite enjoyable blend
of adventure and wargame. Battles between people (and not armies) can be
"viewed" on the ground level. Very impressive. It is a bit glitchy, though.
From what I can tell, it is a very faithful following of the Lord of the
Rings trilogy. I have found only 2 diferences so far. However, there are many
diffenent approcahes to winning available.
