In The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-Earth II, the sequel to the critically acclaimed RTS game The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-Earth you now have the chance to experience all that Middle-earth was meant to be.

The Battle for Middle-earth II will introduce players to depths of the fiction never before explored by EA. With all new content from J.R.R. Tolkien's original fiction, delve deeper than ever before and engage in new battles that go beyond the award-winning movie trilogy. Wage war in the North and assume command of the most storied civilizations in all of Middle-earth history -- the Elven and Dwarven armies -- or fight on the side of Evil with heroes and creatures that have never been seen in The Lord of the Rings films. Defend or overtake never before seen lands such as Dol Guldur, The Misty Mountains, and Mirkwood as you unleash powerful new weapons and abilities - summon dragons, cause volcanoes to erupt, or bring down a cataclysmic lightning strike.

But beware, with greater power comes greater adversity. Your enemies, commanded by a powerful new AI system, possess a greater tactical edge and more powerful spells. Will your armies have the fortitude to persevere?

1 of 5 Very picky about video cards Monday, July 31, 2006
A Gamer from omaha, ne  

This game is extremely picky about the video card it will work with. It will load and go into the game start but then crash. Guaranteed to work with only TWO video card sets. These are NOT cards that come with most PCs, so be ready to purchase and install a video card if you have anything but a special gaming system setup. EA does state the required chipsets but for non-tech type shoppers it is NOT plain enough that this game will not work with 98 percent of systems out there.
