About the Game
The Lord of the Rings: Conquest puts players right in the middle of the most famous battle of the Third Age including the assaults on Helm's Deep and Gondor and the battle at the Black Gate.

Story & Setting
The multiplayer mode also allows up to four players to play together through the campaigns and features three additional game modes: In "Conquest", similar to Battlefield 2142 , the goal is to capture flag points on the map in a pre-determined order and once all points are held by one team, the game is over.
Gameplay & Core Systems
But each of the classes requires energy to perform the more powerful attacks which is gained by simply killing enemies. Besides the usual weaponry a class carries like swords or daggers, players can also find and use catapults stationed on the battlefield or get on the back of a horse to get the advantage and thin the enemy horde just by sprinting through it. After choosing a class, players are dropped at the first spawn point of the current map and is then required to help his allies to help fulfill different objectives depending on the game mode and map. While in single player the heroes on both sides are called when needed and fit the current map (like the Gandalf and the Balrog in the Mines of Moria), in multiplayer the best player of one team is automatically chosen once his team has reached a certain percentage of points needed to win.
