The Final Battle

July 2005·pp. 108–109

THE SHORT VERSION

The surviving Last Alliance confronts Mordor on the rocky slopes of Mount Doom. Sauron enters after the first turn on a successful priority-phase roll; Good must kill him while Evil must eliminate Elrond, Gil-galad, Elendil and Isildur. A campaign reinforcement table rewards armies that preserved their strength in earlier battles, and heroes permanently lost cannot return for the finale. A separate equal-points version specifies hero and bow limits for replay with other forces.
