Flavor text: Ringmaker

After the long article detailing the story of the Against the Shadow cycle, we learned that our heroes were moving to Rohan. And that is exactly where this story picks up again. This hinting at the next cycle will continue in these stories, and eventually, those links will become stronger and stronger after the Dream-chaser … Continue reading Flavor text: Ringmaker →

Month in Review: September 2021

What a month it has been! Not only for the community as a whole, which got flooded by new content and news but also for me personally. September was the month in which I would send out hundreds of notebooks to community members that supported the blog over the last year, but I wasn't prepared … Continue reading Month in Review: September 2021 →

Player card review: Encounter at Amon Din

No rest awaits you after fierce fighting Woses in Drรบadan forests. You approach the burned village near Amon Din. Everywhere you see dead bodies, both Orcs and humans. The remaining survivors call for help - Orcs plunder their village and kill everyone who crosses their path. Your mission is not simple - apart from fighting … Continue reading Player card review: Encounter at Amon Din →

Beleg’s Storage

I am not going to lie; I stole most of these ideas from Durin's Father and others in the community. I won't bore you, more like terrify you with my OLD storage solution. Anyway, I still want to share my thoughts on storage because I cannot buy 10 plus Ultimate Guard boxes, although I would … Continue reading Beleg’s Storage →

Encounter Set Review: The Hunt for Gollum

Gollum is hiding behind the bushes in the Anduin Valley and is carefully watching the heroes, who are searching for him. Gollum is completely motionless; he doesn't want to be caught. And WE will keep Gollum hidden before the eyes of these foolish heroes. Meanwhile, the heroes discover the new sign of Gollum and fix their eyes … Continue reading Encounter Set Review: The Hunt for Gollum →

Deckbuilding: The Wastes of Eriador

The Wastes of Eriador has always been my favourite quest from the Angmar Awakened Cycle and Lost Realm Deluxe box. Given that this is, together with Ered Mithrin, my favourite cycle, it ranks pretty high on my list of overall favourite quests. This is just one of these quests where theme and mechanics work so … Continue reading Deckbuilding: The Wastes of Eriador →

Three Player Quests

When the number of players are discussed for this game, solo and two player modes are the most commonly discussed, and while four players is always the goal to be achieved. But three is often the exact numbers of players needed to strike a balance between playing with your friends and the scenario accelerating too … Continue reading Three Player Quests →

Month in Review: October 2020

Thanks to the second lockdown (personal at least), I have had quite a lot of time this month to work on the blog behind the scenes. It allowed for a rush of articles near the start of the month, as I had time off from work. This was also the time where I received the … Continue reading Month in Review: October 2020 →

Monthly Poll: October 2020

These months keep flying by, and October is almost behind us. I hope everyone is still staying safe and will continue to do so as we enter the darker months of the year. But with the month nearly over, we can look back at the poll that has been running for 30 days. In this … Continue reading Monthly Poll: October 2020 →

Monthly Poll: August 2020

Since so many new players are joining the game these days (seriously, it's like every day I see a "Hi, I'm new" post on the forums, welcome all!), I decided to poll a common question that is asked to the community. It concerns what to buy after you buy your first Core Set. Since we … Continue reading Monthly Poll: August 2020 →
