War Is Upon Us!

THE SHORT VERSION

The team turns its developed Battle Companies into larger armies as the War of the Ring approaches. Harad gains a Mûmak and Easterling allies, Isengard adds Saruman and specialist Uruks, Gondor prepares Boromir and a bolt thrower, and Mordor and Dol Amroth seek heavier support, preserving their campaign histories while confronting ordinary army-building restrictions.

Conquest of the New World

Marco Colombo’s return triggers a scramble for Lustrian wealth in this complete campaign using the new Lustria system. Armies hold linked territories to generate Plunder Points, but special locations alter spells, initiative, equipment and hazards, making the map a set of strategic choices rather than a purely decorative route between games.
