A long-extended Party

You hear it often that this community is the best there is on the internet. For those that need proof of this, I present you with the AleP (A long-extended Party) project. This idea was spearheaded by Seastan back in September 2019 when it was announced that the game would go on a hiatus after … Continue reading A long-extended Party →

LOTR LCG: Art-icle

There are often moments on podcasts where the hosts are discussing cards and take 5 minutes to gush over the art on an audio podcast. While that format doesn't work well with art, I'm happy that the blog format of this site works a lot better. So let me take this time to highlight some … Continue reading LOTR LCG: Art-icle →

Month in review: November 2020

Hang in there, 2020 is nearly over. I know the year has been rough for many of you, myself included, but brighter days are on the horizon. And that includes the game! Not only did a large wave of reprints hit stores around the world this month, but we also got our first sneak peaks … Continue reading Month in review: November 2020 →

Journey Along the Anduin

The next article fit for a remastered version is this Core Set classic that is still enjoyed by players to this day. Journey along the Anduin is one of the most played scenarios by the community, and deserves a proper in depth look. If you would want to read the original article from 2.5 years … Continue reading Journey Along the Anduin →

Monthly Poll: November 2020

With the ninth cycle of the game introducing the new Contract card type, it was only natural to have them all compete in a poll. With most people having access to the final AP in November, this was the ideal time as many people would have had enough time to play with all of the … Continue reading Monthly Poll: November 2020 →

Storage Solutions: Marc Lommert

I got contacted by another member of our community with a storage solution article this week. This solution is one for a larger collection, and includes storage for alt art cards as well. For those trying to find suitable binders, Marc has a short comparison in the article as well. I am still accepting storage … Continue reading Storage Solutions: Marc Lommert →

LOTR LCG Challenges

After some time playing the regular versions of the quests, you might become bored with the game. You have played each scenario and have solved the deckbuilding puzzles that they pose to you. While it is difficult to imagine you being burned out with nothing to play while we have 9 cycles, 8 Saga expansions, … Continue reading LOTR LCG Challenges →

Month in Review: October 2020

Thanks to the second lockdown (personal at least), I have had quite a lot of time this month to work on the blog behind the scenes. It allowed for a rush of articles near the start of the month, as I had time off from work. This was also the time where I received the … Continue reading Month in Review: October 2020 →

Monthly Poll: October 2020

These months keep flying by, and October is almost behind us. I hope everyone is still staying safe and will continue to do so as we enter the darker months of the year. But with the month nearly over, we can look back at the poll that has been running for 30 days. In this … Continue reading Monthly Poll: October 2020 →

Vision of the Poll-antir 3

It is that time again where I grow a little anxious about the blog and would love some feedback. I have done some of these polls in the past, but with quarantine keeping me indoors and with all of this year's loot taken care off, I had some spare time to fix a poll for … Continue reading Vision of the Poll-antir 3 →
