It's my birthday soon and I may be getting battle for middle earth 2 on pc, I was just wondering what it's like, and how similar is it to age of empires 2?

Thanks. I may do it another day, as it's saying it'll take 11 hours to download, maybe on a weekend perhaps.

I have Battle For Middle Earth 2. It's a very cool game. The coolest thing is probably the fact that you can create your own hero and give him special abilities. And he will gain these abilities as you play and he will get stronger as you gain levels. You can also play with a hero from the films or books.
The downside is that you have to choose a colour for your army, and this can look very stupid (red warriors of Minas Tirith or blue wood elves for example).

Yeah, its a great game, alot more variety than the first one, and generally more to do. War of the Ring is a cool feature, as of course is the create a hero (although they tend to become way to powerful). The Expansion comes out soon (Rise of the Witch King) which should be great Roll on 24th November!

Age of Empires dude, the best RTS series ever! You can't say you haven't heard of it!

Ah, Age of Empires ;D
Yeah I have heard of that, but I thought MoM meant some sort of map design program ;D
I don't play AoE, I'm playing Dawn of War (and BFME2) and two strategy games is enough ;D But AoE is indeed a great game.

DoW rocks! I don't actually have it, but I've played on it quite a few times at my mates, and I really want the Anthology, so I might see if I can get it for Xmas.

I was really disapointed with BFME it is really restricted compared with AOE or stronghold.
