War of the Ring

On a recent sojourn in the Grim North of England, we managed a game of War of the Ring.


The set-up.


The Fellowship elects to attempt a military victory and the Ring never leaves Rivendell. Saruman sets up in Orthanc and the hordes from Mordor advance towards Minas Tirith.


Minas Tirith falls, under the gaze of Aragorn (who is subsequently killed).


A nasty moment for the forces of Sauron as Angmar (the Fellowship player only needs 4 victory points as opposed to 10 for Sauron) falls to the Elves.


The Witch King flies north and retakes Angmar to the relief of Sauron.



We eventually called it a draw, late in the evening as we did not have time to finish it. A great game though, to be played again.
