This game is so amazing I had to show it. Its a mod for a game called Mount & Blade
The mod for it is called The Last Days
Basicially it puts you in a 100% accurate map of LOTR and is based off of Tolkiens books rather than the movies. All the locations, maps and sieges are all made accurate.

The Good:
Beornings
Lorien
Mirkwood
Dale
Erebor *Cough* Thu *Cough*
Rohan
Gondor
Rivendell
Iron Hills
The Bad:
Mt.Gundabad
Moria
Isengard
Dunlanders
Mordor
Haradrim (Yes you get to ride an Oliphant)
Rhun
Corsairs/Umbar
Khand
Dol Guldur
Hardest Faction: By far Gundabad, you are isolated with Elven scouts roaming 24/7 and tribal orcs everywhere
Easiest Faction: Lorien, scouts protect you constantly, you get good starter gear and everything is very close to eachother.
You start off as the lowest rank possible and work your way up.
(THIS GAME IS UNFORGIVING IF YOU LOSE IN BATTLE THEY USUALLY TAKE EVERYTHING)
Handy Tips: Go to the TLD options and turn on NPCs always accessible for Town Menu
Save ONLY when your inside citys, this prevents file corruption
Requirements: Not a super computer but a decently good PC, You need Mount and blade which is 10 dollars, Combat is kind of wonky but if you install the Warband port it fixes it (another 10 dollars is needed for that)
Installation: Drag your TLD folder into the Mount and blade MODULES folder and take a certain file in the TLD folder (look on guide) and drag it into your original Mount and Blade folder
