Shoutout to Birdman137 for taking on this Nightmare quest and making the ultimate sacrifice of doing the Nightmare Nin-in-Eilph scenario overview next. Your efforts are appreciated! -Durin's Father When Daan asked if anyone would be willing to help review the Nightmare quests for the Ringmaker cycle, I knew I wanted to help out. I’ve done … Continue reading Nightmare Trouble in Tharbad
It's time to crack the final cycle of Nightmare scenarios on the blog. Hopefully, I manage to finish the NM Ringmaker cycle before the end of the year, though I won't be keeping to a strict deadline. I hope to finish a scenario per month. That way, 2027 will allow me to tackle (NM) Hobbit … Continue reading Nightmare Fords of Isen
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 LOTRLCG. This time we head west to Rohan and Isengard to explore some iconic Locations from ‘The Voice of Isengard’ Deluxe set, and then up to Enedwaith … Continue reading Middle Earth Tour: Ringmaker
With another month coming to a close, it is time to look back at the poll that I have had up on the blog for the last 30 days. This poll asked everyone what their top 2 scenarios from the Ringmaker cycle are. The cycle is a little controversial, as the Time mechanic wasn't well … Continue reading Monthly Poll: June 2020
After having built a deck to beat each scenario of the Ringmaker-cycle, I want to give an overall summary of the decks I have built and some general deck building strategies for this cycle . I will start with a list of all the decks in links to their articles: The Fords of Isen: Watchers … Continue reading Deckbuilding in the Ringmaker-cycle
With the Antlered Crown, this series comes to the final quest of the Ringmaker cycle. We meet once again with the Dunlendings after 3 quests without them for a final battle to conclude the narrative about the Dunlending civil war. I think two things are necessary from my deck to defeat this quest: High willpower … Continue reading Deckbuilding: The Antlered Crown
It has been a while since I published my last article on this series, but now I finally found the time to return. Celebrimbor's Secret is my favourite deck testing scenario and I play most new decks I build first against this one. Because the quest isn't very well known for this, I will first … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Celebrimbor’s Secret
With the last two quests being pretty tough, we move on to one of the easier quests of this cycle. While I find easy quests often too boring (like Into Fangorn), I have good memories of Trouble in Tharbad. The mechanic to get your threat down to zero is something unique and allows unusual deckbuilding … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Trouble in Tharbad
Coming back from my summer holidays I continue with the deckbuilding series, this time tackling The Three Trials. It's one of my favourite quests from the entire game, being not just a great boss fight but having also great replayability thanks to the different combinations of Guardians, Barrows and Trials. I will build for the … Continue reading Deckbuilding: The Three Trials
With Into Fangorn we come to the final quest of the Voice of Isengard-deluxe. While this is in most cycles the hardest one (like Escape from Dol Guldur or Siege of Cair Andros) here it's probably the opposite. The community difficulty rating of 4.3 is significantly lower than those of the other quests. This doesn't … Continue reading Deckbuilding: Into Fangorn
