At the beginning of such maps, there's a huge difference. Do you break through the Fairy Dragons with a Titan and Genies for a bag of gold, which will give you an important army and a daily gold increase (shaman spells, the beginning of Way Home), or do you think, "No, playing with the random healing of Genies is nonsense"? In Lord of Rings, you definitely need to gain exactly 1 experience point for each Spawn of Evil to summon all the demons, and if even one of them messes up, you have to restart.
In LotR, only the first game week is played in such a strict mode; in Way Home, it's about three weeks until you capture the tower in the upper left corner of the map. After that, you can move in different directions.
