you have to buy the upgrades you unlock with the experience points. you do this in-game with mana.
this is why it says "upgrade ......... maximum level"
this along with the repetitive gameploay is why its 3/5.

Words fail to describe just how BORING the first stage of this game is. It's so mind-numbing that it's completely turned me off from even trying to finish it and playing the 'real' game. You'd think for a tutorial stage it would be short, but no. You have no XP, no upgrades and you're forced to just SIT there while you send lame squires out to get killed and HOPE to god you can make progress on the enemy castle before he produces 6 more units and kills you all easily. Awful. Awful. Awful. I'm only giving this an extra point simply because it is a playable game.
-2/5

After starting the first mission the "help" page vanished when I was in the middle of reading it. And what's with the one color, squiggly image buttons? The last game had such a nice interface.

the arrow controls could use some slowing down, so im not overshooting. just too touchy. fix upgrades, and the glitches so i can play this and enjoy it. 2/5

I think the aiming keys are too responsive...it's hard to aim if you barely press it and it moves down a lot. Otherwise I think it's better than the original...stil a few things that could be improved like people before me said... 4/5

needs to have an autosave and a autofire option. Simple strategy for each level becomes pretty boring and repetitive. Holding down A, click and hold right mouse click, move cursor away and press escape gets you an autofire as long as you dont click somewhere so use hotkeys. Maybe even a fast forward button, a bit too long. Nice game if the gameplay could be tweaked.

The first one was awesome, I hope this game is better. I just played it and I think, it sucks. Better then the last in graphics.

@christiger; no, LoTR did not originate the concept of orcs/elves/dwarves per se, but the modern conception of such creatures does, in fact, have it's origins in Tolkien's work.

I've bought upgrades, nothing changed in the game. (Still 2 arrows, still only quire available, etc.) The auto-fire trick of Epic War (1) does not work. :-(

Now if you don't decide to remove the in battle building upgrading another idea I just had is you could add a seperate gathering gold system or something. It's just everything costing mana makes the gameplay far too slow.

great improvement on the first!
siege engines are great idea and building lvl makes it more balanced, but it sucks that u cant tell how much building upgrades cost until you can buy them and it is a bit slow
4/5!!!
