Has anyone played this ???  the graphics are amazing, and its so much better than The Third Age game on the console, even if it is a PC based game

BUT, Im stuck! trying to defend Rohan, either the West or the Eastfold!  I spend all my time trying to defend my castle, and never seem to have any resources available to either find or destroy enemy camps!

Any tips ???  anyone......  pleaassseee..... :D

When the enemies come to attack, have pikes in front, archers behind (upgrade with fire arrows) and when you have killed a few off and they get close, take out the archers.  They are the trickiest.  Then move on to everything else.

I have that game. I find that it's so much easier to play as the good side. I mean, the evil side don't have walls around their bases.
Gondor's the best, especially with Gandalf leading the charges on Shadowfax.

I've completed the Good Campaign, but twas a while ago. And I really can't remember that level. I tried loading my old campaign, but couldn't find my old load state to go and have a look. :(
I found that the best thing to do in selecting places to go was to pick the one that gave Resources, then Command Points. 

By the way, are you playing as Gondor or Rohan??
If you have the choice, play as Gondor and build at least 3 farms, and build a fire throwing trebuchet either side of the gate, and then every other space.
If you're playing as Rohan, place all of your archers by the gaps in the walls of the base.

I'll try and have a go on the level again.

Tis definitely worth getting, even if it is a little frustrating at times.

*Thinks back to the Black Gates mission. There was so many of them, wave after wave of them.

Either your game's preowned or you have a case of hacker.

Just went back to Battle For Middle Earth this afternoon. Conquered Helms Deep no problem. With the number of troops of orcs I had, they were queueing up to get in through the gates for AGES. Scored Total Victory on that one. Twas great. Plus, I managed to get in and out before all their reinforcements and such. Marvelous  ::)

No, don't give up. :o
Tis good, honest. I know it takes a bit of getting used to what the good forces to use are, but you should stick with it. What you need with Rohan is to have archers standing in the gaps of the walls, about 2 or 3 groups to each gap, have a main group of normal Rohirrim, and have a a small band of Rohirirm Archers. Then just move all the Rohirrim down to the enemy base so that you're within firing range for your archers to attack. And if anyone moves towards you, Charge. Although if a troll comes at your horses, RUN back to the rear of your base (making sure the troll follows you) and your archers and towers will take it down. And make sure you heal everyone with the fountain/pool before going into another battle.
Actually, I should probably take my own advice aswell and finish it for th EVIL campaign aswell.
