The game doesn't work... it's just a folder with two .siz folders that do nothing, even after unzipping the download. Waste of time/effort. Oh well... maybe some other site actually has a game file for this that works.

One of the most underrated strategy games of all time, Impressions' Lords of the Realm II is in my opinion the best game designed by David Lester, prolific designer and founder of Impressions.
This mediaval empire game improves on the already superb Lords of the Realm in numerous aspects, adding both complexity and replayability. Your objective in LOTRII remains the same as it was in the first game: The king in mediaval England is dead, and it's up to you to fight the other nobles for the throne and succeed him.
Again like the first game, you are put in charge of both the strategic level (i.e. making decisions for your entire kingdom), and tactical (i.e. taking control of troops in combat) - although you can have the computer handle the combat for you. At the strategic level, you view the action from the attractive isometric map, where you can move armies, adjust economic parameters, manage your resources, and engage in diplomacy with other noble houses.
As in the first game, your success in the game hinges on proper resource allocation and maximizing farm output. Each county in your empire has a fixed amount of arable land, which you can use for farming wheat or raising cattle to feed your peasants. Sufficiency in, or surplus of, food supply helps increase population, which in turn will increase taxes and the size of your army (recruited from peasants). Some peasants must also be assigned to gather other useful resources, build castles, and produce weapons of war. You can also hire mercenaries at the mercenary guild, but they are costly and not always co-operative.
When armies clash, the game switches to a tactical real-time battle mode, which looks similar to Mindcraft's Siege series, and is quite fun to play. Armies consist of peasants, archers, macemen, swordsman, crossbow troops, pikemen, and knights. Each type of troop has its own strengths and weaknesses, although an army of knights usually is practically invincible. What should prove more interesting to an armchair commander than simplistic open-field battles are the sieges, because you must decide how many siege engines, catapults, and battering rams to use, and where to position them.
The computer players are reasonably challenging - they are very easy to beat in the first turns of the game, but become worthy opponents in the later stages. Advanced options such as a hidden map, advanced farming and army foraging, and others make the game more complex, and help increase the replay value. In addition to the standard campaign play, LOTRII includes a nice custom scenario builder and a few multiplayer modes including DirectPlay support.
On the downside, there is no variety in terms of victory conditions -you simply must conquer every county to win. This rigid condition, coupled with the level of micromanagement required for each county in the later stages, makes the game tiresome toward the end (especially when you are clearly going to win, but must first tolerate the tedious process of crushing the last counties of the last enemy). Also, more castle types would have been nice (although you get those in the Siege Pack add-on).
All in all, LOTRII will please fans of the first game, as well as anyone who likes turn-based/real-time gameplay based in the medieval period. The game is not very original, but it is still a lot of fun and surprisingly replayable. Highly recommended to anyone who likes strategy games.
And if you like the game, make sure to download the Siege Pack expansion pack also on this site. Two thumbs up!

Envision the Lords of the Realm series as a sort of proto-Total War. Indeed, that rather modern series owes more than its fair share of tricks to LotM, a strategy game evenly split between turn-based empire-building and close-up battle management. You manage your empire in LotM on a county-by-county level using the world map. You move armies and supplies, build an economic infrastructure or engage in diplomacy.
Each county has a set amount of arable land, which you can use for farming wheat or raising cattle to feed your peasants. Ample food means your peasants will be happy and healthy, and consequently, population will increase. In addition to raising food, you’ll need to put your peasants to work gathering resources and building weapons. Those peasants are lucky to live under your banner, so don’t hold back on taxing the hell out of them. In times of war, you can hand them weapons and send them off to die. Yes, abusing the peasantry in LotM is fun.
Mercs are another method of building up armies. Mercenaries show up at your county centers, and are a great way to wage war without mucking up a county’s economy. The problem is, mercs are costly, won’t work together and never seem to show up when you really need them. When two armies meet, you’ll enter the real-time battle mode. Open field battles tend to be fairly simple affairs. Armies consist of peasants, archers, macemen, swordsman, crossbow troops, pikemen, and knights. As in real-time strategy games, each unit has a counter-unit.
Gameplay is fairly solid, with enough basic strategies to keep you entertained for quite a while. Do you concentrate on conquest right away, or attempt to build a strong economic base first? Do you attack the opponent directly, or burn his fields and slaughter his peasants in order to destroy his economy? Counties need constant attention, and different counties tend to present different problems. However, late in a game this can present a managerial nightmare when you have too many counties to look after.
Sieges are yet another unexpected feature. When an army lays siege to a castle, you’ll first decide how many siege engines, catapults and battering rams to build (sounds familiar?). These may take several turns to put together, during which time the opponent can send an army to break up the siege. Assuming he doesn’t, battle begins and you’ll need to breach the castle walls, fill in the moat, bust down the gates, and fight your way to the inner keep. Archers and boiling oil on the castle walls will make this an unpleasant experience, to say the least. Take the castle and you’ve taken the county. Take every county, and you’ve won the game!
