Interview With Pandemic’s Sean Soucy Reveals "Vehicles" in LotR Conquest

We have known that the new Lord of the Rings title Conquest was going to be like Battlefront only with orcs. We have been given information regarding which battles from the movies and the books will be playable, we know which classes we can play, we know that we can choose between being evil and good, and we know that it will contain both a hearty single player campaign as well as multiplayer.

What is interesting though, is the news regarding “vehicles” for the game. Over on Crispy Gamer, Paul Semel got to sit down and chat with Pandemic’s Sean Soucy and here is a little tidbit Sean let slip about being able to move around in Conquest:

“Horses, wargs, playable trolls and ents, catapults, siege towers and battering rams are just some examples of the kinds of things the player will have at his disposal in the game, but the battle is set in the air as well as on the ground. We’ve got fel beasts swooping down from the sky and carrying off soldiers. Eagles come to the aid of the forces of good to attack the orcs from above……..The “vehicles” we’ve got in the game end up adding quite a bit to the gameplay and are very satisfying in their own right. “

I guess this means that if we decide to play “evil” we get to be a goblin and ride a warg. How flipping cool is that! Watch out Legolas, I am coming to bash your pretty face in.
