J.R.R. Tolkien's War in Middle Earth Simultaneously a medieval war strategy game and a roleplaying game, this one covers all of Middle Earth pretty definitively. Play alternates between overhead maps where the player controls strategic forces in real time, and scrolling wilderness screens where combat between characters and monsters can take place.
