Something weird keeps happening in my Battle for Middle Earth game

And it happens in both the good and evil campaigns after only a few minutes of play, making it impossible for me to move on to the next level.

In the good campaign, after finding the third treasure in the mines of Moria, all my characters of the Fellowship drop dead, out of the blue, with no enemies in sight.

In the evil campaign, when the Ents atttack the walls of Isengard, all my forces drop dead once the Ents break through the walls, also out of the blue.

It's not an incident, i've tried restarting the campaign, and tried both levels several times, but it keeps happening again and again. I've played this game several times before in the past, and no noteworthy bugs have been reported, but now, apparently for no reason, i can't play the game anymore, because my characters and armies spontaneously die after a few minutes.

Does this sound familiar to anyone ?

They are most likely dropping dead from boredom of the crappy game... go play Rome again instead...

Seriously BFME I and II suck. As any game that ever comes out and has something to do with EA.

Qutie frankly, I think campaign is crap. But skirmishes once in awhile are fun [img]smile.gif[/img]

As strange as this may sound, i think the game got corrupted by a windows update, the same thing is happening with BfME2, and also on my brother's comp. A fresh reinstall solved the problem, but it's weird nonetheless.
