Most regular units also have abilities of their own. A similar layout and control system is used, and the player gets to control hero units with special abilities. The game plays much like Warcraft III with added features, some previously used in Battle Realms. The game is licensed by Tolkien Enterprises, as are other book-based (as opposed to film-based) Tolkien games such as The Fellowship of the Ring and The Hobbit (2003). War of the Ring is unrelated to the films by Peter Jackson. Tolkien’s fictional Middle-earth, it expands upon the events of the War of the Ring as told in his fantasy novel, The Lord of the Rings. The Lord of the Rings: War of the Ring is a 2003 real-time strategy game (RTS) developed by Liquid Entertainment and published by Sierra Entertainment, a subsidiary of Vivendi Universal Games.
