Great game, seems a lot more complicated than original Risk with the bad guys having quite the advantage. Great map! There are no extra pieces.
Rating:  -
First let me say I gave this game 3 stars and not 4 or 5 just because of the bord, so if the MAP bord is not as important to you this game is a 4 1/2 game.
For a good description of this game I would recomend the review titeled "If you like Risk you?ll love LOTR Risk" by matt_mn . He explains it very well and gives you an idea of how the game is played and what is nice about this game .
Cons:
MAP:
-some of the teretories are very small that it is hard to have 4 'soldiers' on them and still see if that terretory has a strong hold or a power point (a picture on the terretory usualy indicates that)
Instructions:
- Certain instructions in the manual are not very clear. Example:
1- in a 3-player game does each player place 1 leader or 2
2- Missions: if you capture a terretory with a power site, but you did that without your leader, can you move your leader later (in the other turns) to that point and still have a mission that mensions to capture a power site with your leader be completed??-- the reason why this is a bit confusing is because you can do that at the first turn of the game, but no mention if you could do that throughout the game.
Summery:
great game, with even more strategy than regular risk. Bord can be improved or made a bit larger for easier reading. And I guess some instructions are not clear enough that you might have to make some rules at the begening at the game.
Hope this helps.

I bought a LOTR Risk (not trilogy) board as it was much cheaper and was very annoyed that it didn't have Mordor and Gondor on it - it only tells you this on the instructions, INSIDE the wrapped box. There was also a leaflet inside it with the Expansion Board advertised on it, but all sites say that this is OUT OF PRINT! Following this, I decided to draw my own but I am still longing for that Minas Tirith game!

I really liked this game and i got it because i love LOTR. It takes a long time to play but if you can find someone patient enough to play it with you then it is a blast. It used a lot of stratigy and made me think.

I grew up playing the original Risk game with my father, brother, and cousins. It has been a sort of institution in my family for years. That being said I might like this game version more. Maybe because I did play the original version so much or maybe it is because I fell in love with Middle Earth after seeing the movies but to me the addition of mountains, rivers, leaders, and strongholds changed the whole dynamic of the game and made it seem less chance based and even more strategy oriented. Troop movements and army formations must now take into account bridges and passes. Attacks must factor in leaders and strongholds.
If I had anything negative to say it would be that some of the color contrasts make it hard to tell what "continent" a province belongs to and I must agree with another reviewer that cheap marketing tactics have created two versions [FOTR/Towers and Trilogy] so definitely get the trilogy version if you are a LOTR fan or else just get the cheaper version.
