war of the ring - Dark Wolf - 31-07-2011
i would like to learn how to play he big battles for lord of the rings with the big units as i only know the scenorio stratedgy one.

Same here, definitely interested in looking at War of the Rings at some point. Hopefully my Elf Cavalry will be a tad more effective in the larger game...

did you and simon play a game of war of the ring a few times or just the stratedgy as they were in war of the ring pallets
RE: war of the ring - Stuart - 01-08-2011
We just played strategy, but we were using the movement trays from War of the Rings for convenience.

lol funny. lots of soldiers of a stratedgy game...
a balrog. there like unbeatable. played against a balrog once and he mauled elendil and then galadriel untill finally after 20 numenoreans and 10 galadhrim had been slain i through my isildur in and killed it then the survivors got masacred by orcs and moria goblins so i lost pritty badly.

I think I managed to take just a single wound off Simon's Balrog - and it took about 5 turns to do that.
RE: war of the ring - Dark Wolf - 02-08-2011
lol that us nearlly worse than me! ye stuff like balrogs and nasty dragons really get on my nerves. though i think trolls are pointless as with aragorn i can take out a trolls 3 wounds easily with aragorns 3 attacks as i can use his might to buff it and use wizards to buff it back up to full.
Battlehosts - Stuart - 03-08-2011
In addition to the core War of the Rings we could also consider the Battlehosts expansion at some point.
There's an intro on the Game Workshop site.

i would be up for a 3 way war of the ring one week if you me and simon want to have a game.
