That was useful. I thought he was a little generous with his scoring and then in the end it still ended up being only a C. Well done. |

Thanks for the review, looks like I will buy just the new rule book. |

Well it's on my wish list for Christmas and the models alone make it worth the $$, at least when you look at GW's retail prices for the models by themselves. I already have the old rule book with model stats
I wonder if they'll port to the new game? I'll shell out for the rules I think so I can have the latest version. I know, it's GW BUT the current rules have been in place since 2003? 2005? So it is high time for an update. But I'm keeping my old blue book because I love it so much. But I don't see myself partaking of this new range, at least not at retail price. I'm going for discounted retailers, Ebay, and other places if I want any of the other models. GW's prices are just too rich for my blood and heroic 28mm just isn't my scale any more. However LOTR is one of my all time favorite games and I'll follow at the end of the crowd and nibble a bit. |

I hope that isn't what the Goblin King looks like in the movie. Why is he bigger than a troll? |

Excellent review Armand. I have so much unpainted lead, including all of the previous strategy battle games. I also have many of the plastic sets. Since I don't find anything about this set that is especilly exciting or attractive, and the price is so high, I believe I will pass. |

Excellent review! I look forward to a review of "the big book" when it comes out. Like many here, trying to decide if I need to shell out more money or if I can get by with a lot of my LOTR stuff. |

Thanks for the link! I posted my comments over there, but I'll say it here as well: They truly stink for not giving us a painting guide in the boxed set, and for having the gall to charge $25 USD for an ipad version of a complete painting guide. All of my LOTR miniatures were painted using the excellent, and FREE, online painting guides, and some of the guides in WD. I like my miniatures to look like the GW painted examples, and it burns me that I was not provided with any guides. That's GW for you, I guess
