“Believe not that in the land of Gondor the blood of Númenor is spent, nor all its pride and dignity forgotten. By our valour the wild folk of the East are still restrained, and the terror of Morgul kept at bay; and thus alone are peace and freedom maintained in the lands behind us, bulwark … Continue reading QOTW Recap: The Siege of Cair Andros
Many great trees grew there, planted long ago, falling into untended age amid a riot of careless descendants; and groves and thickets there were of tamarisk and pungent terebinth, of olive and of bay; and there were junipers and myrtles; and thymes that grew in bushes, or with their woody creeping stems mantled in deep … Continue reading QOTW Recap: Into Ithilien

“Dire deeds awake, dark is it eastward. Let horse be bridled, horn be sounded! Forth Eorlingas!“ The Two Towers, J.R.R. Tolkien Cycle: Print on Demand scenario The very first GenCon, later Print on Demand, quest released for The Lord of the Rings LCG in September, 2011, The Massing at Osgilliath offers plenty of opportunities for … Continue reading QOTW Recap: The Massing at Osgiliath
When you read the flavor text before and after this scenario in the rule sheets, you learn that our heroes actually do get nightmares from the base scenario of that quest. It is not often that they are disturbed by things, but the memory of Minas Morgul under the full moon haunts them a bit … Continue reading Nightmare The Morgul Vale
Out of all 50 Nightmare packs, I think this is one that you should save for last. Not because it is worth the wait but because it is going to take some time to defeat the quest, and you'll be pretty burned out by the time you achieve that feat. The base scenario is already … Continue reading Nightmare The Blood of Gondor
When the Against the Shadow cycle was first released, many players were stomped by the great difficulty of the scenarios compared to previous cycles. But then, along came Encounter at Amon Din: an easy scenario that most players are able to beat in under 5 turns without too much trouble. It still ranks as one … Continue reading Nightmare Encounter at Amon Din
I have made it no secret that this is one of my least favorite quests in the game. It punishes players hard for playing cards, having resources, and also not having resources. In multiplayer, the quest can start with 30 points of Archery at the start of the game, and the switch to Siege questing … Continue reading Nightmare The Drúadan Forest
This quest is one of the community's favorites thanks to its high replayability with the different Plots and Villains. The quest was so popular that the designers tried their hand again with Danger in Dorwinion, which is a spiritual successor. But this quest also comes with a Nightmare mode, building on the original version with … Continue reading Nightmare The Steward’s Fear
The final quest of the Heirs of Numenor Deluxe is also often deemed the most difficult. And that is saying something, as the other two aren't considered a walk in the park either. But the Siege of Cair Andros is a different beast altogether. You have to defend 3 locations from being destroyed, and if you can … Continue reading Nightmare The Siege of Cair Andros
