Among all the battles that took place at the end of the War of the Ring, I feel this one has flown under the radar a bit. The battle at Erebor between the armies of Dale and the remnants of Durin's Folk against Sauron's eastern armies was hard fought, and victory came only at the … Continue reading The Siege of Erebor
It has been a hot minute since I last did one of these overview articles. I took a break in August, and when the end of September rolled around, I was busy playing games at Con of the Rings. So I will recap a bit of the past three months in this article, and look … Continue reading Month in Review: October 2023
To conclude the Lost Realm box, we change our enemies from Orcs to Undead. In the regular version of this quest, you are swarmed with ghosts and reanimated corpses, and I can inform you now that the Nightmare version of this quest does not change that a lot. So, with Halloween around the corner, be … Continue reading Nightmare Deadmen’s Dike
After having missed the previous 3 editions of Con of the Rings, I have finally made the trip to the GameZenter again for a weekend of LOTR LCG and meeting up with community members I hadn't seen in 4 years. In this article, I share everything that my jetlagged brain can remember of the weekend, … Continue reading Con of the Rings 2023: Experiences and Memories
Playing the game is fun and all, but after having played it for several years, you would be forgiven if you thought that it felt a bit repetitive to see the same player cards over and over again. And while I always advise you to step out of your comfort zone a bit and try … Continue reading Alt Arts
I am quite unfamiliar with this quest, to be honest. It never grabbed my attention during any progression playthroughs, and I even gave the original analysis to a fellow author in order to cover this quest in greater detail. But I suppose I have to face this quest once more in a more difficult variant! … Continue reading Nightmare The Weather Hills
With Con of the Rings at the end of this month and the pre-registration for Lure of Middle Earth opening on September 15th, I feel that this time is as good as any to talk about what to bring to conventions and what to prepare yourself for. While the usual convention advice is applicable, there … Continue reading Convention Preparation
It has been a while since I have made a Nightmare article, and since another author will be taking on the Ringmaker cycle, I will skip ahead and move on to the Angmar Awakened cycle. This should be in everyone's recent memory since this was the first cycle that received the repackaged treatment. As a … Continue reading Nightmare Intruders in Chetwood
""The Dead are following," said Legolas. "I see shapes of Men and of horses, and pale banners like shreds of cloud, and spears like winter-thickets on a misty night. The Dead are following.""Yes, the Dead ride behind. They have been summoned," said Elladan." - The Return of the King, The Passing of the Grey Company … Continue reading The Passing of the Grey Company
It's been a busy month concerning LOTR LCG. We have gotten our hands on the two expansions for the Dream-chaser cycle, and discovered quite a few new things inside those boxes. It's still not enough for me to buy everything again, but it will at least help the newer players to expand their cardpool and … Continue reading Month in Review: July 2023
