Lords of the realm II

Lords o the Realm II in my opinion surpases the next game Lords o the realm III and even have an edge over Medieval Total War II: 1. in siege scenarios in Total War one cannot place troops in the buildings (castle) so the flag is on the market, unlike Lords II where only foot troops can capture the stronghold. 2. in agricultural aspect it cannot let you choose the form of agriculture crops or cattle so the dairy variant is nonexistent...as a matter of fact only in Stronghold I`ve seen something better. 3. Buying / selling food, resourses, weapons, etc. is another aspect that make this game similar to Stronghold, but unlike Stronghold wals fell only under siege weapons (it is silly how soldiers destroy walls and gates with their weapons), and having only five tipes of castles spares of the time of designing them - similar to MTW II.

LotR 1 is one of my all-time favorites. My whole family played the heck out of this. Even my Mom and sister love this game. And there's a lot to love: strategic dot warfare, resource micro management, sending hate mail to the other nobles; you can even design your own castle! And the cows moo when you click em! It's a game with tons of replay value, as you can become King all over again on the alternate map. LotR 2 is a solid game as well. Even though you can't design your own castle. :( This bundle is worth triple the price GOG is selling it for, easy.

Suprisingly good and highly addictive turn-based strategy!

Lords of The Realm is very addictive and suprisingly pleyable game. It first I had few doubts about this 'historical simulations' but soon realized that I was wrong... Maybe game isn't on top of my favourite classic strategies list butit's quite high. Basicly we can say that game is ancestor to later 'Total War' series and simillar to titles like "Defender of The Crown". Story takes place in medieval England. Your aim is to be the “lord of the realm” by vanquishing your five competitors: Knight, Countess, Baron, Bishop and Earl. The game is turn based and each turn consist of one season in which you can raise armies, manage your regions, trade, build a castle or a myriad of other things. You get a small report each season which will tell you what the weather is like or any other unusual occurrences like wolves becoming a pest or a high birth rate. Your job is to allocate workers to a series of tasks like farming, tending sheep or cattle or gathering resources. Your regions also need to be kept happy, health, fed and well guarded against the opposition. If any traders are in your region you can also find out some rumors and trade with them. Once you are satisfied with the way things are looking you end your turn and wait for your opponents to make their moves. The most intense part of the game is the battles where you can take control of armies and wage war against your enemies. You can also lay siege to castles and while all of the combat in the game can be left to the computer you'll be missing out on a big part of the action if you do so. The battles look rather cool with hordes of little guys killing each other but it's still not what you'd call state of the art. The game definitely looks more functional than impressive. The audio fares slightly better with some appropriate tunes and plenty of nice sound effects. Everything is controlled via the mouse and after a few hours of playing you'll know your way around the multitude of game screens. I'm quite sure you won't regret any of those 6 bucks spent for game. If you like little more 'realistic' kingdom sims this game is 'a must have'! See you on the battlefield...

Great value for great games.

I will admit that I played Lords of the Realm II and have hardly played the original. That said, this package is a great deal. The first, second, and the expansion gives you plenty of gaming goodness. Lords of the Realm combines the best of real time strategy gaming and turn based strategy. The economics and base building are all dones in the turn based part of the game. Battles however are fought in real time. One may also "auto-calc" battles if you get bored of fighting them all the time (a nice feature). The economics are complex enough to give you plenty of options, yet not so complicated that you have to get too involved. Food may be grown or purchased and encourages your people to multiply. People can be assigned to gather resources or drafted into the millitary to form armies. You win when you have eliminated the other nobles. Wood metal and stone are used to build castles and weapons. Though most RTS gamers will find the real time combat simple, the unit variety is good enough to allow you to do plenty. Seige weapons allow you to better assault castles. The best part of these games is they feel very strategic. Almost like chess. The turn based nature means you can plan your actions carefully. I've spent hours at times on one turn working my strategy down to a science. Players of Battle for Wesnoth will love this game. It's a better version of the same game.

By your command

Lords of the Realm is a true classic strategy game that kept me hooked for ours. Thankfully, it offered the possibility to play with some friends via "hot seat" ... something gamers today do no longer know. And it still is a good and challenging game, depending on the difficulty setting you choose. The pixel graphics are still nice to look at and the sound effects might be a bit scarce (although I have an polished CD version even with music and voice - too bad they didn't use that one here), but the point of the game, become king of England and defeat the other players, is still a lot of fun and one of my favorite games of all times. I love this one, and even if the second part was not included here (which I never played), it's still worth the ridiculously low price. Every penny of it.
