Other games (cough, Dungeon Keeper, cough) have tried to turn the RPF around and have you take the role of the villain instead of the hero, but none of them have been nearly as engaging. Nice balance of evil mayhem and flat-out humor - whether it's killing cute, cuddly halflings or your minions putting pumpkins on their heads as helmets. Speaking of minions - is that the coolest game mechanic ever? I think it might be.

I know i'm not alone when i tell you that i LOVE hearing the miniors say "FOR THE MASTA" "TREASURE".
I love the mechanics but it got to be slightly frustrating in the elf forest when you have to move them up roots while avoiding water. I lost so many reds that way. oh well, I would've sacrificed them for my health anyways
I had to run home to Mississippi - i've been forced to stay a few extra days and i'm really looking forward to getting back and playing this. I'll try the online portion when i get back.
