The War of the Ring
has begun...
The WAR OF THE RING is a grand strategy board
game that allows its players to immerse themselves
in the world of J.R.R. Tolkien's THE LORD OF THE
RINGS and experience its epic action, dramatic
conflict, and memorable characters.
As the Free Peoples player you command the
proud hosts of the most important
kingdoms of the Third Age. From the
horse-lords of Rohan to the soldiers of
Gondor and the Elven lords of Rivendell,
you lead the defense of the last free
realms of Middle-earth.
Face the evil minions of Sauron on the
field of battle in a desperate attempt to
delay their onslaught, while you lead
the Fellowship of the Ring in the Quest
for Mount Doom.
As the Shadow player you lead the hordes of the
Dark Lord and his most powerful minions as they
try to bring darkness to Middle-earth. Legions of
Orcs, Trolls, Wolfriders and the dreadful Ringwraiths
await your command. Hunt the Ring-bearer and
bring the precious Ring to his Master, or crush your
enemies with your unstoppable armies.
This is your chance to forge the destiny of an age...
