Month in Review: July 2021

Is it just me, or are these months going by super quickly? Maybe this is because we didn't get a lot of new things in July, but it did seem shorter than usual. Oh well, it means that Con of the Rings will start a lot faster in that case ๐Ÿ™‚ In this article, I … Continue reading Month in Review: July 2021 →

Bi-monthly Poll: July 2021

After 2 months, I finally can conclude this poll. Last month I did not finish it for a few reasons, but I think that everyone now has had plenty of time to fill in their favourite archetypes. I will be slowing down these polls to just 1 per 2 months, as that will lighten the … Continue reading Bi-monthly Poll: July 2021 →

The City of Ulfast

With the assault on Dorwinion now behind you, you start to find the man responsible for the siege. This leads you to the city of Ulfast on the shores of the Sea of Rhรปn. But finding one person in a city isn't easy, especially if you want to avoid getting found. That's because the City … Continue reading The City of Ulfast →

Month in Review: June 2021

We're halfway through the year already, and luckily, things are starting to open again here. I will be receiving my two vaccination shots in the coming 2 months, which might be late but better than never. This should allow me to travel again after the summer, just in time for the third edition of Con … Continue reading Month in Review: June 2021 →

Announcement: Epic Multiplayer Helm’s Deep

TLDR: Someone remade Helm's Deep so we can suffer all at once! Join here on Saturday 21:00 GMT to see me try my best to beat it! I was approached by community member, co-writer, and all-around great guy Purple Wizard to join in his latest Epic Multiplayer scenario.

The LOTR: LCG Calendar

During the holidays, you might get more people together to play the game with but might struggle with deciding on what quest you would like to play. After all, there are so many quests out there and just playing Encounter at Amon Dรฎn for the 40th time is dull. So I decided to get a … Continue reading The LOTR: LCG Calendar →

Month in Review: May 2021

Another month has passed, and we are starting to see signs of the approaching summer. While I personally donโ€™t have any plans for the summer, I hope we can get the holidays back in time for Con of the Rings later this year! The past month has been a relatively quiet one on the blog, … Continue reading Month in Review: May 2021 →

Monthly Poll: May 2021

With the poll on our favourite mats being quite a success, I couldn't wait very long to post the same question to you all, but for the alt art heroes this time. The Fellowship 2020 kit did give us 5 new entries for this poll, so you all had enough cards to choose from. While … Continue reading Monthly Poll: May 2021 →

Nightmare Flight from Moria

Rounding out the NM Khazad-Dum pack, the final quest from the box gets a major overhaul with this Nightmare version. The original Flight from Moria was, in my eyes, the weakest quest from the Deluxe box because it could either last just 1 round or take forever to clear if you got unlucky with the … Continue reading Nightmare Flight from Moria →

A 'quick' update then on me going back to my usual storage About 1.5 years have passed since my latest update to the storage solutions. Last time I got back from Con of the Rings with a lot of stuff, this time I have … Continue reading Storage Solutions 4.5 →
