Second Edition Expanded Game

What if the Keepers of the Elven Rings had used their Rings of Power to challenge the might of the Dark Lord? What if the Balrog had risen out of Moria to bring fire and fury to the lands of the Free Peoples? What if the Council of Elrond had decided differently regarding the Fellowship of the Ring?

With Lords of Middle-earth, the first expansion for the War of the Ring Second Edition boardgame, players may explore these possibilities, together with many other ones, to create fresh gaming opportunities and new strategies.




What if the Shadow had sent the Corsairs of Umbar farther north in an attempt to strike at the Grey Havens? What if the Great Eagles had come to the aide of Helm's Deep?


With Warriors of Middle-earth, the second expansion for the War of the Ring Second Edition boardgame, players will directly control these powers in their struggle to dominate the fate of Middle-earth.
