DESCRIPTION

Set in Middle-earth around the time of the Fellowship, The Lord of the Rings: Tactics allows players to guide the forces of good (or evil) to victory, through a series of turn-based, RPG-style battles. With victory, the player's characters grow stronger and gain new powers. Elevation and other environmental factors can affect the outcome of each attack, promoting sophisticated strategic planning. Unlike many earlier games of the tactical RPG style (such as Final Fantasy Tactics or Tactics Ogre), The Lord of the Rings: Tactics features a system that applies the moves of all opponents at the same time, leading to faster-paced play and more unexpected outcomes. ~ All Game Guide
