Interesting (if not a necessity) expansion for War of the Ring. Neat variants for those who,unlike me, have played this to death.

Great expansion! It seems to be not intuitive when you read the rulebook, but in game it works perfectly. Edit after third game: Truly masterpiece, like the whole game!

Balrog was a disappointment. He's as useful as a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest. I guess he'll keep the elves from attacking Moria, but he's not much of a leader outside of that. It seems too easy to take him out. I would think you would have to sacrifice Gandalf the Grey to do so, but that's just me. Every time his die came up with the Balrog symbol, that was just a wasted roll (after he activated). I like the new minis, though, and the alternate bad guy additions are pretty cool. Interesting cards.
