In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them,
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows Lie
Enter the world of Middle-earth with The One Ring, the official tabletop roleplaying game based on the works on J.R.R. Tolkien.

This beautifully illustrated, full-color hardcover manual presents Middle-earth as it was twenty years after Bilbo Baggins' remarkable disappearance and unexpected return. The great events narrated in The Lord of the Rings are sitll fifty years away, leaving plenty of room to narrate stories worthy of an epic.
Now in its second edition, The One Ring comes wiht updated and revised rules, a new visual style, and a focus on the land of Eriador - the Lone-lands west of the Misty Mountains.
Among its key features are:
• Rules for travelling across the land (Journey), facing frightening foes (Combat), and meeting the personalities of Middle-earth (Council).
• Thorough advice for the Loremaster on how to bring Middle-earth to life, including rules for magical treasure, the Shadow, and the Eye of Mordor.
• In-depth information on six Patrons - individuals sponsoring the adventures of the Player-heroes - inlcuding Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf the Grey.
• A bestiary containing a spread of adversaries, from the lowly Orc Soldiers and Highway Robbers, to monstrous Cave-trolls and Barrow-wights.
• Rules to create your very own Nameless Things - unknowable beings from the dark corners of the world.
• A complete Landmark adventure, The Star of the Mist, with extra support for new Loremasters, in the form of tutorial advice throughout.

Amazing RPG
If you want to play an RPG in the world of Middle-Earth, look no further. This is THE book that will get you started and going for a long time. The mechanics work well for the settings/theme. You could use other systems to play in the world of Lord of the Rings but this system is specific for the theme and so lends itself perfectly to what the game tries to achieve. There are plenty of references to rules and ideas to help GM get started with creating an adventure. The number of classes and options for player characters are abundant and well crafted.

Enter Middle-Earth
I’ve been going through the book ever since I got it, and it is incredibly well made. The mechanics can feel like a lot, but I can already feel myself picking up the finer details a bit more. The authors were very thorough on building out especially traversal and council mechanics that it can really feel like stepping into Middle-Earth and exploring.

A new RPG favorite in the best fantasy world ever created
This has replaced dungeons and dragons for me. The story and characters take front and center. The rules are robust enough to allow any play style but easy to learn and get going. The art is fantastic. The story is truly epic. I can’t recommend enough.

Beautiful Book
This book is just nice to look at. There is more than enough art in the book to really get you into the setting and all of it is gorgeous. The book itself is a nice size and well constructed. Out of all the rulebooks I have (Of which there are many between GW titles, Battletech, and Bolt Action) this is probably the nicest one I own. The price isn't bad either. I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking into roleplaying games.

Excellent base for adventuring in middle earth!
I really like the system for Heroic Culture (hobbit, elf of Lindon, ranger of the north, etc). It seems that focusing on this as opposed to the class (calling in this if I remember right) for abilities etc. Allows a LOT more customizable character roles. There are not combinations that would seems counterintuitive or contradictory really. I was able to make a dwarf that has a hammer and healing which I love that combination being easily interesting for stories. Although the world information is set for Eriador I can absolutely see using the system to send people adventuring in Rhovanion, Gondor, etc

Excellent rulebook for an great roleplaying system
There's a lot to be said about The One Ring 2e. First of all, the book is beautiful, with excellent art, and seems to be of very high quality. Second, the RPG system itself captures the feel of Tolkien's work better than I could have hoped for. Everything, from player characters designating an heir to take up adventuring when they retire, to the way the Shadow can drive a character to madness, to the rules for characters to take an extended break for Yule feel like they were pulled directly from the Lord of the Rings. Third, the dice system is simple enough for anyone to pick up and play, but has enough flexibility to allow for dynamic storytelling. The One Ring 2e is an excellent tabletop roleplaying system. Anyone who wants to go on adventures in Middle Earth will not regret picking up this book and giving The One Ring a try.
