The preview introduces forces for Arnor, Angmar and the Grey Company, including Arvedui, Gûlavhar and Bûrhdur, and explains that the book combines linked scenarios, army lists, profiles and hobby material rather than merely presenting a new miniature range.

Welcome to Wargaming

A newcomer’s introduction explains collecting, painting and playing as complementary parts of the hobby before comparing the three main games. Ranked regiments and manoeuvre define Warhammer, loose squads and vehicles shape Warhammer 40,000, and individually moving warriors with finite heroic resources distinguish The Lord of the Rings. The guide also explains points values, supplements, clubs and events so that a first collection can develop into a playable army.
