THE
RETURN OF THE KING $40.00 ($60.00 CAN)
The
Battle of Helm’s Deep is Over – The Battle for Middle-earth has
begun! Following on the releases of The Fellowship of the Ring and
The Two Towers games, The Return of the King mirrors the events
of the forthcoming film of the same name. It will take players through
the key events of the movie such as the fighting at Minas Tirith,
the battle at the Black Gates of Mordor, and the culmination of
Frodo’s quest to destroy the Ring. Just as the film raises the action
to new heights, the action in the game also rises with the inclusion
of new rules, warriors, and scenarios.
The
Return of the King adds greater depth and detail to the previous
games with 12 new scenarios that allows players to re-create the
events of the third film. The 176 page, full color rulebook also
includes a comprehensive forces section that gives players all
the information you need to field warriors from any of the films.
From older characters such as Isuldur to newer ones like the Mouth
of Sauron, from the noble High Elves to the brutish Mordor Trolls
and the horrific Shelob, players will now be able to draw on an
incredible variety of characters, warriors, and monsters for their
armies. New rules also cover using banners and musicians in games
as well as special combat tactics such as firing massed volleys
at the enemy. The rulebook also includes The War of the Ring,
a special section presenting an additional 5 scenarios covering
the great battles raging throughout Middle-earth plus a new character
to use in them.
Exciting
New Miniatures for the Game: Over the coming year, Games Workshop
will be releasing many fantastic new models to support the game.
From Aragorn the King to the twisted Gorbag, from the Knights
of Gondor to the Mordor Uruk-hai – players will see a wide variety
of new miniatures adding extra depth to their armies. New warriors
such as the Eastlerlings, monstrous characters such as Shelob,
and heroes such as Denethor will be arriving to bolster forces
on both sides.
The new game itself will come with great new plastic models, including
24 plastic Mordor Orcs and 24 Warriors of Minas Tirith, each force
armed with a variety of weapons. Players also get new plastic
scenery, evocative of the unique appearance of Middle-earth as
seen in the motion pictures. Future issues of Games Workshop’s
monthly hobby magazine White Dwarf will feature painting and modeling
advice along with new scenarios and gaming material to further
expand the game.
With the release of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
tabletop battlegame and associated releases, players are seeing
but the third installment in The Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle
Game. Though this film brings the epic trilogy to a conclusion,
these releases are only the latest for The Lord of the Rings Strategy
Battle Game! Coming months will be seeing even more via White
Dwarf magazine and new supplements, taking the action even farther
in scope. Players can be assured that they can look for many years
to come of miniature gaming in Middle-earth!
