Middle Earth Tour: Angmar Awakened

Welcome to the latest article of the Middle Earth Tour Project, where we showcase some new, โ€˜nicerโ€™ 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 →

Month in Review: April 2021

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 Nรบmenor

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 Nรบmenor →
