  • This is Part 12 of our complete Lord of the Rings Conquest Walkthrough, featuring Rise of Sauron The Sacking of Minas Tirith.

  • Conquest Campaign

    The Lord of the Rings: Conquest features two campaigns in its single-player mode. One focuses on the Armies of the West and follows the major events of the Lord of the Rings films. During this campaign, players get the chance to control many of the major protagonists from The Lord of the Rings, including Gandalf, Aragorn and Legolas. The other campaign focuses on the armies of Mordor in a hypothetical scenario in which The One Ring was never destroyed and Sauron never defeated. In this campaign, players can embody the evil wizard Saruman and even Sauron himself. The campaign mode can be played co-operatively with another person on a split screen and takes approximately ten hours to complete.GameSpot: The Lord of the Rings: Conquest Impressions (July 15, 2008)

  • Objective 1: Capture the Courtyard

    1. Choose the Mage to start this level.
    2. Your squad includes a Troll. Stay behind it as you head up the stairs and into the courtyard.
    3. Watch as the Troll butchers any Gondorian in its path. Use firewalls and lightning to clear out any stragglers.

  • Objective 2: Steal the Crown of Gondor

    1. Keep moving ahead, with the Troll in front of you. The classic mage strategy works best here: use firewalls to kill distant enemies, and unleash a shockwave when enough of them get close. Hit enemies with lightning while your special abilities are recharging.
    2. Press forward until you reach a circular room. The crown is on a pedestal in the middle of the room.

  • Objective 3: Deliver the Crown to the Nazgul

    1. Move through the hallway to the next outdoor area. Break the barricade on your right with a firewall, then let the enemy come to you in this area. Keep your allies safe with healing power and stop the enemy surge before continuing forward.
    2. If you spent enough time in that last area, it should be easy making your way down the pathway, then back up stairs to where a Nazgul is fending off some humans. Use a shockwave to clear a safe path, and simply approach the Nazgul to deliver the crown.

  • Objective 4: Rally at the Stairs

    1. Leave this battle behind and follow the yellow arrow through another building. A door will open on the other side, revealing the rally point and a group of friendly Orcs.

  • Objective 5: Clear a path for the Battering Ram

    1. From from the rallying point to the yellow objective arrows. Charge straight into the skirmish between your allies and the Gondorians and unleash a shockwave.
    2. There are three barricades ahead that you can destroy with regular attacks or firewalls. Take care of the first one with a firewall before things start to get hairy.
    3. From here, it's business as usual. Use magic attacks when possible, otherwise hit your enemies with lightning and weak X attacks. Destroy the second barricade when you're able to push back the enemy far enough.
    4. The last barricade is right in front of the gate. As you reach this area, one last push of Gondorians will come out of the room next door. Place your firewall so part of the flaming ring touches the barricade, setting it on fire, and the other part hits some of the enemies coming outside.
    5. Continue fighting near the gate. As enemies come out of the small room, send firewalls inside to burn them, and use shockwaves to break up larger crowds. Meanwhile, your fellow Troll will bust open the door.

  • Objective 6: Destroy the White Tree

    1. Take control of Saruman when asked if you'd like to play as a hero. He has the same basic abilities as a Mage.
    2. Head inside and upstairs. The white tree is in the middle of this courtyard, and you'll have a moment to approach it quickly and hit it with a firewall before the enemy comes rushing in. Retreat once you've done this.
    3. A massive battle will break out between the Orcs and the Gondorians. Move around to avoid most enemies, and use shockwaves to keep yourself safe if they draw near.
    4. Keep hitting the tree with firewalls as they recharge. It takes roughly four hits to destroy the tree.

  • Objective 7: Capture the Throne Room

    1. Leave this battle behind and head into the throne room. A group of Gondorian Captains are inside.
    2. Stay in the capture circle, but keep moving around it to stay as distant from the captains as possible. Hit them with firewalls and shockwaves.
    3. You'll have a few soldiers with you that can capably fight the captains hand-to-hand. Keep them alive as long as possible by healing with LB.
    4. Even when you kill the captains, they will occasionally respawn. Don't give up, and hold your ground. If they knock you down, roll out of the way as you're getting up by holding left or right on the thumbstick, then heal yourself as soon as possible.
    5. When the meter at the bottom of the screen fills with red, your mission is complete, and you'll earn the "Fall of Minas Tirith" Achievement.
