    LOTR: battle for middle earth gets a bit tedious single player

    Act of War is good if you liked C&C: Generals.

    find that offensive.
    Surely the "nerdy"ness level is on a par with visiting a computer hardware forum.

    I played DOW and it was suprisingly OK. I'm neither a RTS or a warhammer fan but the demo was amusing so I played the game. Probably the higest quality game of it's type in terms of production values and some really nice character animations. RTS is still RTS but warhammer looks and plays better than ever before. Maximum respect to those who can paint the figures so brilliantly but for those that cannot DOW is the way forward.
