THE LORD OF THE RINGS - THE BATTLE FOR MIDDLE-EARTH COLLECTOR'S EDITION PC GAME & DVD
The Battle for Middle-earth II is a real-time strategy computer game published by Electronic Arts, based upon the fantasy book The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien and its live-action film trilogy adaptation, directed by Peter Jackson and released by New Line Cinema. It is a sequel to The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth, from the same company. The game was released on March 2, 2006. A special collector's DVD edition is also available, containing additional promotional material, maps and unique unit skins. The game also has an expansion pack called The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth II - The Rise of the Witch-king.
The most important new feature is the 'build anywhere' style. Players cannot build on uneven terrain or in trees. Players start with two builders and can use them to create any structure they can afford. This allows more freedom and faster troop production. The Citadel that was the center of a base in the first game has been removed, and replaced with a fortress. The fortress is much more important than the citadel, as it can be upgraded with many defenses, including up to 6 catapults, arrow towers, walls, and faction exclusive upgrades that can branch off it. However, these walls can not have troops sitting on top of them. While this was considered in production, it was decided they were too bulky
