Bard’s Family: Bain, Sigrid & Tilda

Bard’s three children become a resin set for Middle-earth games. Bain’s determination to protect his sisters is placed within the family’s descent from Dale’s rulers and the fighting in Lake-town, rather than presenting the children as conventional experienced warriors.

The Blood of Heroes

Two linked games connect Guilliman’s advance through a Chaos-held spaceport with the Crimson Fists’ last stand on Rynn’s World. The first battle’s result determines when Primaris relief arrives in the second, whose players are deliberately kept ignorant of that timing.

The Chase

Radagast’s sleigh distracts the Hunter Orcs while Thorin’s company races across rocky ground to the Hidden Valley. The distraction ends if the company attacks or the wizard leaves, and returning Orc reinforcements stop only when the first Dwarf escapes; the Good side must save enough companions without sacrificing Radagast.
