About this product

Product Information

Amid chaotic, constantly changing battles of swords and sorcery, players lead their forces in a desperate struggle to save Middle-earth. Built on EA's Command & Conquer: Generals engine, The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth is a real-time strategy game set in the world of the Peter Jackson trilogy, based on the novels by J.R.R. Tolkien. It focuses on large-scale warfare instead of individual characters or the quest of the Fellowship, and is designed to re-create the epic battles featured in the three films. Familiar hero characters become available, however, and their powerful influences can turn the tide in a close battle. Four different factions are featured -- the riders of Rohan, the armies of Gondor, the forces of Saruman, and the legions of Sauron -- and each relies on a different type of resource to develop and replenish its forces. The game includes two separate single-player campaigns; one has fans leading the forces of good against the orcs and goblins of Mordor, and the other allows them to guide the forces of evil to claim Middle-earth for their dark master.

  • Battle foe Middle Earth

    I have an incomplete set; added this set and works perfectly. Purchased better video card with 4gb for other games and B for ME set-up...full speed options. Graphics blew me away, played other games...WOW!

  • Love the game

    I owned it years back and decided to buy it again. The graphics aren't amazing but they're still good for their time. Sad that online play is no longer supported but still fun single player
