One of the best things of this game is that it can dive deep into passing mentions of places and characters that were in the books. This cycle is a prime example of this, since we don't know much about Harad from the books. It has led us to the great jungles that were only … Continue reading The Black Serpent
Another month is over, and what a month it has been for the community. Not only did we get a lot of new cards spoiled to us, but most of the community finally got their hands on Wrath and Ruin. This in turn meant that the community was thriving with discussions on the new cards … Continue reading Month in Review: November 2019
With the Antlered Crown, this series comes to the final quest of the Ringmaker cycle. We meet once again with the Dunlendings after 3 quests without them for a final battle to conclude the narrative about the Dunlending civil war. I think two things are necessary from my deck to defeat this quest: High willpower … Continue reading Deckbuilding: The Antlered Crown
The Crossings of Poros is to me a legendary quest for more than one reason. Release was incredibly delayed in Europe, and we had to wait months to get the pack compared to our friends in the Americas. It had a spectacular misprint, forgetting to add a unique symbol to the hero of the pack … Continue reading The Crossings of Poros

It has been a while since I published my last article on this series, but now I finally found the time to return. Celebrimbor's Secret is my favourite deck testing scenario and I play most new decks I build first against this one. Because the quest isn't very well known for this, I will first … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Celebrimbor’s Secret
It is a common theme in this game to break into places we are not supposed to, and yet each time, the scenario feels different. Whether it is Dol Guldur, Carn Dum, or this fictional Orc Stronghold in the Ephel Duath, the mechanics make the settings fresh to attempt each scenario individually. Today's article looks … Continue reading The Dungeons of Cirith Gurat
We leave behind the deep and dangerous forests of Mirkwood and handed over the unpredictable Gollum to King Thranduil. Now the whole new adventures await us, far away from Mirkwood forests. The White Council sends us to the Mines of Moria, to find Balin, who establishes there a colony of Dwarves. However, since that time nobody … Continue reading Player card review: Khazad-Dum
With the year coming to a close soon, it is time to look at what October gave us in terms of LOTR LCG content. While the community thrived with Con of the Rings being a big part of the early weeks of the month, FFG dropped the ball and didn't release any new articles to … Continue reading Month in Review: October 2019
