Today is the 20th birthday of The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II. Published by EA on March 3, 2006, it is set in Middle-Earth during the War of the Ring.
It features Good and Evil campaigns with nine missions each, massive RTS battles, and heroes like Aragorn and the Witch-king. You can command six factions: Men of the West, Elves, Dwarves, Goblins, Isengard, and Mordor.
It didn't introduce new features but followed essentially the same formula as other popular RTS games of its era. You build your base, research upgrades, build an army, and try to destroy your enemy. Done a gazillion times... but why reinvent the wheel if it's a proven concept? For LOTR fans it was certainly worth it, and given the success of the movie trilogy, it made a lot of sense to profit from the hype.
