Untold War of the Ring Module
The fifth game is up and running. The storyline follows the Untold War of the War of the Ring: the battle for Mirkwood with the Silvan and Sindar taking on the might of the Dragon Lord, the battle for the Misties, and Bain and the Northmen's valiant efforts in the North. In addition we've replicated the battle for the Gap of Rohan between the White Wizard and Rohan. A mini-game lasting for 13 turns, played on a restricted map with improved starting characters, makes for an intense battle. Also featuring a new, team-based victory points system which allows comparison between teams in different games.

Setting up in a Game
Gunboat and Grudge and other variant games cost more to start up with, check
the house rules for full details.
When I get all 25 nations into the game I will allocate you your choice of
nation from the list of nations that you have sent me - please send multiple
nation choices as this helps to get everyone their 1st or 2nd choices - if
too many choose only 1 nation the system falls apart. All nations are
potentially available until I set up the game.
Descriptions of the type of game follow - please check this when contacting
me with regards playing in that game. When joining with allies please tell
me so that I can help out. You cannot join 1650/2950 games as Neutral with
an aligned or Neutral ally. 1000 - some rules apply for joining with allied
Neutrals please ask (you are usually Neutral Team and not allowed to change
allegiance).
Up to 2 nation game: You can play one or two Aligned nations, or one Neutral
nation.
2 nation game: You must play two nations.
Note please ask for variant games we can try to get you opposition for them
if you are interested - mostly Grudge teams though - if I get 10 players for
any single type of game then I will put it up for general availability below
and push it, always check the rules for variant games;
