The Hunt for Gollum

February 2005·pp. 104–105

THE SHORT VERSION

Aragorn and Gandalf pursue Gollum while Sauron’s servants converge through uncertain reinforcements. A hero must defeat the fugitive without killing him and drag him off the board, but entering combat forces the captive to be released, making a safe extraction more demanding than simply finding and winning a fight with him.

Other news covers Sharkey and Worm, Forge World’s Griffon, the forthcoming role-playing relaunch and historical card-game expansions, alongside new hobby resources and preparation for the War of the Ring campaign.

Night on Bear Mountain

With the caravan’s Ogre guards away settling an argument, Gnoblars descend on the wagons to steal anything useful. Attackers earn plunder by remaining at a wagon and can escape voluntarily with it, while random game length represents the guards’ approaching return; captured loot supplements ordinary victory points rather than replacing the battle entirely.
