The first and obvious thanks go to J.R.R. Tolkien, who wrote The Lord of the Rings.

Thanks to Roberto Di Meglio, Marco Maggi, and Francesco Nepitello for the excellent game design that is "War of the Ring".

Thanks to Werner Randelshofer, someone I don't know who wrote the free Java splash screen code.

Thanks to Twanvl, who wrote Magic Set Editor, a free templating program I used to make the event cards.

Thanks to David Morse (MrWeasely) for a multitude of improved images, including the colored figures and characters and the action dice symbols.

Thanks to Kristofer Bengtsson (Veldrin) for the map image.

Thanks to Rafael Brinner (Rafamir) for the hunt tiles images and also for writing the “How to Play a Game” section.

Thanks to Ralf Schemmen (Uthoroc) for the Elven Ring and political marker and track images.

Thanks to David Morse and Eugene Hung (eyhung) for tons of suggestions, feedback and help with testing.

Thanks also to everyone else who gave feedback; there are a lot of you!

Finally, thanks to all the War of the Ring players who discuss strategy. That is what we need a program for.
