A Look at the New Edition of the Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game
Games Workshop have published a significant update about the new edition of the The Middle-earth Strategy Game.
As detailed in the update, the new edition focuses on the characters and events featured in the forthcoming anime fantasy film The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim (due for release in December, 2024). Also, the core mechanics of the game have not seen any major changes, with GW preferring to refine and streamline rather then rewrite the current rules. The update also promises a greater focus on narrative armies, with battles and storylines from the books and movies becoming 'a key part of the gaming experience.'
Two supplements will also accompany the release of the new edition: Armies of The Lord of the Rings and Armies of The Hobbit. As you would expect, each focuses solely on the characters, creatures, and armies from each respective trilogy.
See the Games Workshop website for more details.
