Starcraft is far more ripoff Warhammer 40 000, Aliens and predator.
About lotr. Are you sure that Tolkien was first with all all those fanatsy creatures? I red somwhere that lots of stuff from the fantasy fiction comes from D&D.
Antodias is HARDLY like Gandalf. Antodias is just a random mage who no one cares about. Gandalf was like... Pwningful
And grunt being a ripoff of normal orc... Just no. The grunts are OBVIOUSLY ripoffs of your simple barbarian axemen, or footmen, or just basic foot units. You can't say that a footman was a ripoff of a normal orc because they both used weaponry. At that, the normal orcs in LotR were far better armoured
And Kodo and Mumakil... No again. Mumakils were freaking elephants with too many tusks that was designed to rip through enemy territory. Kodos were just large reptiles who were kept around mainly for moral

Dnd originated in 1970 only. Actually, dnd is only about 30 years old...lotr originated with books in the 1930s I recall with the hobbit.
...... most of tolkiens stuff was altered versions of various myths, legends and so on he just gave them new names a few tweaks and a bakround, stuk in some obsenly long description of something (im talkin 20-30 pages 4 aragorns name) 16 magic rings and 2 gay hobbits and BANG instant classic witch nightmare things is the base of wc3...... i got skills
well if yous are trying to get techincle warcraft was probly just based of starcraft's old fasion times (some history of starcraft that blizzard didnt give a f*ck about)
Anywho, it has bits of Warhammer, bits of Tolkein and bits of random mythology

LOL! Then I must be a rip-off of Sauron. I like to conquer them all and I have a huge army with dangerous attacks (yes, I sometimes live in a fantasy world).
Nightmare, WARCRAFT IS BASED ON LOTR! - and several other things, such as Dungeons and Dragons and The Chronicles of Narnia. Blizzard wasnt creative enough to make an original idea, so they just combined the main ideas of these different creations, and they made Warcraft.
