| Special Features |
- Every feature in The Lord of the Rings, The Battle for Middle-earth II has been expanded, from a new single player campaign to new units for each of the original game's six factions.
- Explore a never-before-seen period of Middle-earth history. Witness the Witch-king's rise to power and Angmar's invasion of the great kingdom of Arnor-a story only glimpsed at in the books and never visualized in the movies.
- Innovative new units bring a higher level of strategy to the battlefield. Scout the enemy, assess the situation, then use the Thrall Master to summon entire hordes to fight your foes, or enlist the Sorcerer to cast devastating spells using the souls of his acolytes as currency.
- Adapt your strategies to face challenging new campaign missions, featuring Control Point, Competition, King of the Hill, and Hold Out mission types.
- The innovative hero creation tool reaches a new level of depth and strategy with the Create-A-Hero Cost system and new hero assets.
- Play an enhanced and expanded War of the Ring mode, including new army persistence-the units you build up in Battle Phase skirmishes carry over onto the Living World map, allowing you to deploy them to other territories across Middle-earth.
| Review |
After more than a thousand years of peace, a dark tide has risen in Middle-earth. The Witch-king is gathering a massive army of evil minions in the land of Angmar. His aim: to wage war against the Men of Middle-earth and avenge Sauron's defeat at the Battle of the Last Alliance. In this first expansion pack to The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II, take control of the forces of Angmar in the first major war of The Third Age. With everything a player could want from an expansion pack-a new single player campaign, an enhanced Create-A-Hero feature, a new faction, and much more-you now have more control than ever in your battle for Middle-earth.
