One of my favorite things is how the music would change depending on whether you were having a little skirmish or a full-on invasion. And it would even recognize when you were charging with the Rohirrim and play their theme. Plus, summoning a squad of angry hobbits on top of a grounded Nazgul was one of the funniest and most satisfying moments.

Sooooo many hours were spent in skirmish mode, playing co-op with a buddy against 4 (or 6, I can't remember) other CPU controlled factions, reaching our respective unit command limit and pitting our armies and powers against each other, Tom Bombadil landing the killing blow on the Balrog by dancing into it.
*sigh*
Fun times...
Large battles? Got it. Quick and dirty fights to the death, fighting tooth and nail to keep your resources defended while destroying theres? Check. Custom maps of doom? Of course!
Goblins best faction ever, even more so for the "patch" I made for it! And if you guys didn't know, you can still get games on Gameranger, and Gamereplays.org has the unofficial patches that they use for clanwars.
