This was a very special month for the game and its community. On the 20th of April, the game turned 10 years old! This is a great milestone for any game to reach, and I'm happy to see that the game's community is still so strong. We are still seeing new players appear in groups … Continue reading Month in Review: April 2021
Monthly Poll: April 2021
We are steaming along with 2021, and April is almost over. During this month, I posed the question on what quest you liked least of all. Much like the February poll, I took my poll entries from previous cycle polls, and this time took the quest that was the least favourite. Putting all 9 quests … Continue reading Monthly Poll: April 2021
Wrath and Ruin
This cycle is keen to revisit past quests and fix what was broken with them. In today's episode, we get Assault on Osgiliath 2.0. Not only the mechanics are the same, but even in the announcement for this pack, FFG mentioned that you are defending "the ancient capital of Gondor". Last I checked, Dorwinion wasn't … Continue reading Wrath and Ruin
Deckbuilding: Escape from Mount Gram
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
Storage Solutions IV
I have been hard at work figuring out the next part of my storage solution as many of you might know. While the previous solution worked great, it had some glaring problems that became apparent as I started to collect the NM packs. Because of the fact that the boxes no longer fitted the NM … Continue reading Storage Solutions IV
Month in Review: March 2021
March has been a month of highs and lows for me. On the one hand, I have gotten a crazy amount of new expansions in this past month, and am nearing completion of my Nightmare collection. Just 4 packs remain at this point. I also received the components of a Fellowship kit, allowing me to … Continue reading Month in Review: March 2021
Monthly Poll: March 2021
Some say this is enough playmats, they are wrong It is time to close another poll and look at the results! I quite enjoyed this month's poll, as we got a ton of reactions and discussions about what playmat is best. I also received my copy of the Balrog playmat this month, which is looking … Continue reading Monthly Poll: March 2021
Player card review: Heirs of Númenor
After the epic battle with Durin's Bane, you finally escaped the mines of Moria and came out to the daylight. It is a relief for you to feel the fresh air instead of the musty smell of death. You look around yourself and spot the army of Orcs and people marching by them. Those are … Continue reading Player card review: Heirs of Númenor
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
Nightmare The Seventh Level
The Seventh Level is one of my testing quests (I test a lot against Dwarrowdelf in general) and particularly for my combat decks. The classic Seventh Level has always been a quest that pushes out a ton of enemies. It requires you to do well against them, while also making enough progress to get through … Continue reading Nightmare The Seventh Level
