Warriors of Middle-earth, the new expansion for War of the Ring, brings a whole new level of strategy to all players of the award-winning Lord of the Rings boardgame, with many fresh and exciting gameplay possibilities to explore.

Many folks and creatures played a part in the War of the Ring: the mysterious Ents, the Dead Men of Dunharrow, the Great Eagles of the Misty Mountains, the Corsairs of Umbar, the Wild Hillmen of Dunland, the Giant Spiders of Mirkwood and Mordor. Warriors of Middle-earth gives new depth to the deeds of these combatants - previously featured in the game only as Event cards - now making them an essential part of the game, complete with unique figures and special abilities.

As the Free Peoples player, you can now muster the Ents to free Rohan, or even send them to protect Lorien or Gondor; storm the lands of the South leading an Army of the Dead; fly with the Eagles to the rescue of the Fellowship or to relieve a siege. As the Shadow player, you can sail the dark ships of the Corsairs along the river Anduin or the coasts of the Western Sea; lead a horde of Dunlendings to take Edoras or put the Shire to the torch; let giant Spiders crawl out of the darkest recesses of Middle-earth to terrify your enemies...

With new special dice, two decks of Faction Events, and new figures, Warriors of Middle-earth greatly expands the options of both Free Peoples and Shadow, and makes every War of the Ring battle even more challenging and fun.

Great Expansion

Average rating of 4 out of 5 stars

This is a great expansion because it introduces new mechanics to the game. You've got 6 new factions and each one works differently. The previous expansions change character cards or the starting state of the board, but this one introduces new mechanics to use in support of existing factions. Like Corsairs move shadow armies along the coast. Dead Men build a huge army and sweep across the board while losing units. This expansion might end up being my favorite of the three that are out currently.

Great expansion to help tell the story

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

This is a really cool expansion that adds some extra depth to the base game, which is already a fun game to play. This add on helps recreate the feel of the original storytelling.
