During the Vengeance of Mordor cycle, the developers introduced a new card type that not only influences the way you play your deck, but also influences the deckbuilding process itself. These new Contract cards limit the players in some areas, like restricting certain cards from your deck, but grant you benefits in other places. The … Continue reading Fellowship
With the shortest month of the year almost behind us, it is time to reflect on the past month and see what it brought the community in terms of expansions and articles from this blog. We got our third expansion of the Vengeance of Mordor cycle, and the Doomed archetype got revitalised with the release … Continue reading Month in Review: February 2020
To take a break of the 'favoutire scenario of cycle X' trend, I made a poll for the short month of February where players could vote for their top 3 weapon attachments. And with the month coming to an end, it is time to share with you the results on what weapons should remain according … Continue reading Monthly Poll: February 2020

It is a custom for the third quest of each Deluxe box to be the most difficult of the three. Look at Escape from Dol Guldur, Raid on the Grey Havens, and Deadmen's Dike as examples. The Wilds of Rhovanion Deluxe's third quest has you explore the mines of the Iron Hills, where rumour has … Continue reading The King’s Quest
Content is just coming out of FFG at a rate that we haven't seen in a long time. With January giving me 2 APs, we are already on to the third in the cycle. We received a lot of spoilers for this pack though, so not many player cards were new. Still, they will try … Continue reading First Impressions: The Challenge of the Wainriders
With the new Wilds of Rhovanion Deluxe box taking a lot of inspiration from the original Core Set scenarios, a reworked version of Passage through Mirkwood was inevitable. The quest is the first one that any new player plays when they dive into this game, and it has a reputation of being the easiest quest … Continue reading Lost in Mirkwood
A new year, and its first month brought us quite a lot of new content. Not only did I finally receive two new expansions for the game (last one was way back in July), but we also got more news articles from FFG. The blog also did good, although I did a lot of preparation … Continue reading Month in Review: January 2020
At long, long last I finally got my hands on this first Adventure pack of the final cycle. While the pack was originally scheduled for the end of Q3 and would have been available at Con of the Rings, it took well over 2 months longer to finally find its way into my collection. But … Continue reading First Impressions: Wrath and Ruin
With the hero's tournament almost a month behind us, it is time to wrap up the next monthly poll that I had running on the site during the month of January. This poll required you all to make the difficult choice of what two Shadows of Mirkwood cycle scenarios you liked best. For most of … Continue reading Monthly Poll: January 2020
