It is the best bfme game because it has more units, spellbook powers, heroes, hero abilities, factions than bfme 1 and 2. Also, the graphics are very good, especially for a 2006 game.

I have played this game on and off since it's release and wish to write a review here to maybe inspire a new generation to try out this game, in a time where RTS game are practically dead.I have played many of the top RTS games like Starcraft 2, C&C, Warcraft 3, Age of Empires 2, 3 and a few others. This is my favorite, by far. The game has an incredibly high skill ceiling, yet is still alot more causal that other RTS games. Not to mention there is a plethora of custom made game-modes like tower wars to enjoy if you are not into the competitive online experience. Graphics, while old have aged beautifully thanks to the artstyle. Sound design is probably the best in gaming, you can't beat it and let me xplain. The game features actual sound files from the Jackson lotr trilogy itself, which is one of the best and highest budget movies ever made. The sound overall holds extraordinarily high quality, and the soundtrack (also from the movie) is the best in movie history (therefore also in gaming history) in my opinion. All the incredible sound effects makes you completely immersed in the game. Gameplay is also incredible. It features 7 different factions, with unique themes that stays true to the lotr books. If you download the 2.02 unofficial patch (developed but a passionate community of fans), the game is very well balanced and has incredible variety for an RTS game. It also has a great single player experience with a great campaign and fun skirmish games against the AI on various beautiful maps from the lotr universe. This game is abandonware at this point, but can be downloaded for free on gamereplays and be played online on gameranger. I HIGHLY reccomend trying this out, one of the best games ever made imo, and it's now free, so what can go wrong?

-A FEW WORDS FIRST
One of the absolute best RTS games of all time easily. I have played this game from release all the way to this day and I won't stop, I always go back at some point. (Little tip, go play around with the Ini file of the game and mod it yourself for a better experience). (All these below are always according to the games release date, not now) -GRAPHICS: 10/10

Лучше первой части, теперь возможно строиться где пожелаешь, а не только в определенных местах! А еще можно создать своего ГЕРОЯ! В общем обязательна к прохождению!

Жаль, что не сделали продолжение, но вроде будет переиздание от фанатов, что ж, ждём.

Arkadaşlarla multiplayer oynaması çok keyifliydi. Sürekli elf olup gümüş okçu basardım. Yapılmış en iyi lotr oyunu olabilir.

Играется довольно бодро даже по нынешним меркам, единственное что поначалу сильно бросается в глаза это лок на 30 фпс, из-за чего некоторые анимации выглядят сыро. Чуть позже конечно немного привыкаешь, но все равно такое ощущение, что схалтурили и не доделали. Новая фракция, герои, магия, 8 новых миссий, пройдя которые можно узнать немного лора вселенной Толкиена. Правда мне все-таки вторая часть чем-то понравилась больше, возможно из-за финала, который в дополнении вышел просто наискучнейшим, такое ощущение что это просто кастомная миссия сделанная каким-то фанатом в редакторе карт.

Excellent expansion to the base game :) Especially because of the campaign which is from Evil side - Witch King and his minions :)
