Stronghold 3 and Lord of the Rings: War in the North would be two games right up your alley. Stronghold 3 is due September 2011 and War in the North is November 1, 2011

Another game you and your friend might want to try (Turn based strategy) is Frozen Synapse. You go head to head and instead of taking turns and reacting to what your opponent did, after you both submit your orders you get to see what happens in real time.

I would have to say Baldur's Gate, Neverwintehr Nights.. Both suck for lan play (at least for the official campaigns).. The extra character is always "tacked on" rather than being a actual part.. While at the same time certain mechanics such as pausing for Baldurs Gate which was a must to do most itmes is poorly done.. Where my friend and I constantly broke each others pauses and what not...

That being said.. Borderlands.. Its a FPS.. But with rpg elements and quests, along with a Diabloesque loot system.. Not to mention hilarious dialogue and story, especially with the DLC's..

Another fun lan game would be Sins of a Solar Empire.. And you only need one copy to boot for both of you to play..

Dawn of War 2's campaigns can be quite fun with friends as well..
