Like LotR, for instance? :) BTW, how did the warfare scenes in Troy compare with TTT and RotK?
Hey, do you remember Marvel's fantasy/SF magazine Epic? I found some back issues of that at an antique store today for $1 each--some stories by Moorcock and Ellison in them, not a bad find. Also found back issues of the Weirdworld, Deadly Hands of Kung Fu, and Marvel Preview magazines, along with Adventure Comics featuring Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes #336 (from 1965) and a 70s DC horror comic called The Witching Hour.
Very similar, actually. There were overhead views of the soldiers running that looked like they were generated by the same software as the battle scenes in TTT and ROTK.

Yes, I remember Epic, and all the other titles you listed. Even have some in my collection, somewhere...
