War of the Ring 2E: Deluxe Game Mat

Manufacturer: Ares Games

War of the Ring (2nd Edition) is widely recognized as the best strategy board game based upon the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and the ultimate gaming experience set in Middle-earth. The War of the Ring Anniversary Edition, produced in a limited number of copies, included a larger game board, and players have been asking for a similar board to be offered as a regular product.

Ares Games went a step further, and it is now producing the official War of the Ring Deluxe Game Mat, a giant neoprene playing mat (laser cut, 128 x 88cm size) with an enlarged playing area, for easier gameplay, printed on high-quality, foldable material. This beautiful mat features the amazing John Howe's depiction of Middle-earth created exclusively for War of the Ring.

The game mat provides a gaming surface similar in size to the Anniversary Release game board 50% larger than the normal board included in 2nd Edition. With this deluxe game accessory, players will have a durable game board with even more room to maneuver the 205 miniatures used in the game.

This game mat measures 128 x 88cm (50.4" x 36.6").

This is not a stand-alone game. This is an accessory for War of the Ring (2nd Edition).
