Into Ithilien has always been a roadblock for players. For those that are playing progression mode, this was the next biggest challenge after Escape from Dol Guldur. The scenario introduced a bunch of new mechanics, a split path to tread down, and the infamous Mumak enemies that would come back here and there during the … Continue reading Nightmare Into Ithilien
I promised in my new year's resolutions to complete the Nightmare Heirs of Numenor cycle this year, and with 2 months having already passed without an article on that, I thought I might as well get started on fulfilling this promise. So today, we kick-off the cycle with Peril in Pelargir. It is a quest that is … Continue reading Nightmare Peril in Pelargir
With the previous two articles in this series being rather short, we leave that behind us now, as the quests now come with dialogue and an ending. Because of that, I will now be adding a "completed" section for each quest if it is applicable. The narrative in this one is a lot stronger than … Continue reading Flavor text: Against the Shadow

Every once in a while, the developers give us with a scenario that has some special mechanic that really flips the normal phases of the game upside down. The Blood of Gondor is such a quest. Not only does this quest give players a ton of enemies, but the enemies might engage players when they … Continue reading The Blood of Gondor
This article will contain spoilers for the conclusion of the narrative of the Against the Shadow cycle. If you haven't played this quest yet, go in blind and come back in order to not be spoiled by the big surprise.

This quest is one of my most hated quests in the game. It requires a very specific build, and even then, you might stall after 3 turns as the new Prowl keyword takes away most of your resources. This quest is also one that can absolutely ruin players by dealing a lot of Archery damage … Continue reading The Drúadan Forest
