I have gotten the other AI players to come to my aid on various occasions, but the Bishop always has some dramatic excuse.<br /><br />"It is with a tear in my eye that I must inform you that my troops are currently undergoing a rigorous exercise regimen and will not be available for quite some time."

It glitches out within at least a minute. The only time I was ever able to get it to work for any extended period of time was over dialup between a 166 Mhz Win95 box and a 333 Mhz Win98 box.<br /><br />I wish someone would patch that up one of these days.Lee Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16318611726967198747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5958630519986783831.post-83810443113704659982012-12-24T07:36:50.464-06:002012-12-24T07:36:50.464-06:00I dusted off LoTR2 this summer and became so obses...I dusted off LoTR2 this summer and became so obsessed with it that I had to have my wife hide it from me.

I was extremely disappointed when Lords of the Realm 3 was released, so sad that the series had to end like that... <br /><br />If only they'd reboot the LoTR 2 gameplay in a Lords of the Realm 4 or something.
