best strategy game 2004 ?

the new lord of the rings one with the command and conquer engine in it looks pretty hot

the new add on for rise of nations should be pretty good

Oh yeah rise of nations is all good

meh still addicted to Farcry..

Has anyone finished the last level on farcry?

ive almost finished it (tho i cheated once just so i could see what happens)

(normal difficulty)

Looking for a new strategy game too

yup.

took me ages to get through the volcano crater.

The machine gun and sniper rifle are your friends.

There hasnt been much annouced strategy wise for this year.

Bring on E3!

Yeah taking out the machine gun dudes first is a wise idea then just keep running so you dont get hit by the rockets then throw a few grenades over the tanks at the guys ... but i always run out of life and one of the left over fockers gets me (when i do actually make it there).

Any tips?

hope this helps, and hope it aint to much detail.

get the machine gun (the para like one) and sniper rifle from the armoury before you go out.

Use the sniper rifle to take out the machine gun guys (easiest to get them before they start moving)

Use the machine gun on the big guys, aim for their head.

I didnt move far from the door until they were all dead. Thats about the best cover you get and if you keep the big guys below you, rockets hit the edge of the ledge.
