Having escaped the Dungeons of Mount Gram, our heroes continue their journey that leads them Across the Ettenmoors. An area whose danger lies in being exposed to the forces of nature, but also in the Trolls and Giants that inhabit it. Luckily, there are some safe places to be found to shelter our heroes. While … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Across the Ettenmoors
Welcome to the latest article of the Middle Earth Tour Project, where we showcase some new, ‘nicer’ Locations in Middle Earth that may help, rather than hinder, your Quests within LOTR LCG. This time, we have journeyed back north to Arthedain to join forces with the Dunedain Rangers as they protect the unsuspecting folk who … Continue reading Middle Earth Tour: Angmar Awakened
After having made our way through The Wastes of Eriador in the last article of this series, we now have arrived at Mount Gram. There, our heroes have been captured, split apart and thrown into the dungeon, from which they need to find a way out. While this sounds like a tough premise, Escape from … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Escape from Mount Gram
After a "short" break (I planned to have this article ready on Halloween 2020) we advance in our Angmar Awakened nightmare series to another great quest. The Treachery of Rhudaur was already fun with multiple players, but it always used to be a little less fun while playing only one deck. Since it came out, … Continue reading Nightmare The Treachery of Rhudaur
Deadmen's Dike is the quest that I remember as my first really big stumbling block in the game. I started this game with the Ringmaker Cycle and first Saga boxes in addition to the core set, and while they have some difficult scenarios, you can tech for them and have some powerful player cards available. … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Deadmen’s Dike
On a cold day of November like today, I'm happy to not have to go outside in the Biting Wind and instead can Make Camp in my armchair, playing some Lord of the Rings and continue this deckbuilding series… and imagine how my heroes are out there in the cold of the Weather Hills, fighting … Continue reading Deckbuilding: The Weather Hills
This is the conclusion of the Angmar Awakened cycle and a strangely controversial quest. It has been one of my favorites ever since I first played it, as it was thematic, interesting in its mechanics, and already pretty challenging. The Nightmare version, as always, makes it even more thematic and bumps up this quest's difficulty … Continue reading Nightmare The Dread Realm
Across the Ettenmoors used to be a quite enjoyable quest when it was released. It used fairly interesting mechanics and had a pretty distinctive feel to it, but it was quite a bit too easy. The nightmare deck changes that, and by how much I'll explain in this article. Nightmare Across the Ettenmoors Found in: … Continue reading Nightmare Across the Ettenmoors
It has been a while, but being locked down by the corona virus I’m returning to the Deckbuilding series. With a lot new powerful player cards, especially the contracts, there are a lot more possibilities to build interesting decks designed to beat specific scenarios! I am returning to this series with the Lost Realm and … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Intruders in Chetwood
As of current writing, Lord of the Rings: The card game has over a hundred quests available for play. This game is not easy, and even veteran players will face frequent losses if they don't bring A-level decks. But over the years, some quests have gained reputations for being especially difficult. We all remember the … Continue reading The Battle of Carn Dûm
