I know this is not in sequence, but I had to jump (to) the shark! The Drowned Ruins is, for many players, a moment in the cycle where they can take a break, slowly build up their board state, and then rush through to the end. In the original version, nothing is stopping you from … Continue reading Nightmare The Drowned Ruins

QotW: The Siege of Erebor Results
With not everyone having received their copy of the Ered Mithrin campaign box last week, we decided to extend the waiting period before we would begin with this cycle for QotW. Instead, we went for the Erebor stand-alone scenario that was created by AleP last year. It is a recent quest and also takes place … Continue reading QotW: The Siege of Erebor Results
QotW: The Caves of Nibin-Dum Results
We've made it to the end of the Core Set + Dark of Mirkwood campaign! This also marks the first month of the QotW project, which I have enjoyed a lot. By the looks of things, so have many of you, as new entries keep flowing in with each quest. For this week, you were … Continue reading QotW: The Caves of Nibin-Dum Results
QotW: The Oath Results
We are getting close to the Ered Mithrin cycle, but wanted to give players some more time to receive their campaign box. So we continue with the campaign from the Core Set into the Dark of Mirkwood scenario expansion. These two quests aren't the hardest of them all, but can still leave some space for … Continue reading QotW: The Oath Results
Yearly recap 2024, first half
I know I promised not to do the monthly reviews anymore, as there wasn't too much to talk about, aside from the 2-3 articles I released. Remember the times I would do 10 articles a month? Man, those were the days. Instead, I wanted to recap the first half of 2024, see what it brought … Continue reading Yearly recap 2024, first half
QotW: Escape from Dol Guldur Results
We've already reached the end of the Core Set this week! The challenge for the past 7 days was to play Escape from Dol Guldur and report back with your findings. This is a quest that many players have (rightfully) skipped in the early days of their time with the game, so it is good … Continue reading QotW: Escape from Dol Guldur Results
Nightmare The Fate of Nรบmenor
Moving on to the next quest in the NM Grey Havens pack, we leave our ships behind and investigate the island of Numenor. This quest comes with double-sided locations so that you do not know which location is which based on the front of the location. Since Nightmare cards have a different layout with dark … Continue reading Nightmare The Fate of Nรบmenor
QotW: Journey Along the Anduin Results
After the success of this project with Passage through Mirkwood, we led our campaigns to the river, where the difficulty increases and more challenging obstacles need to be overcome. Still, I believe this is the most played quest during the entire game's life, since the difficulty is average and players often use this quest to … Continue reading QotW: Journey Along the Anduin Results
QotW: Passage through Mirkwood Results
Last month, Autumn proposed an idea on the COTR Discord server to host weekly playthroughs of the same quest by the community. We could then share our victories, defeats, and epic moments along the way. To have more people join in, we also included some challenges from my Field Guide for more experienced players to … Continue reading QotW: Passage through Mirkwood Results
Ultimate LOTR LCG expansion review
Strap in; this is going to be a long article. For years, I have been busy reviewing products and quests for LOTR LCG, but I have never done an article on every single expansion, reviewing both quests and player cards. In truth, this article borrows a lot from Ian's New Player Buying Guide over at … Continue reading Ultimate LOTR LCG expansion review
