Hello, all! Found Big_Hagar's stats conversion for WAB to LORT among the messages. IS the LOTR: Fellowship edition of the rules enough to run Viking raids,...
... The Fellowship rules do not include rules for cavalry, but that shouldn't really mater to you, but the rules have changed a fair amount, no reason why you...
... I can hardly remember the changes to be honest, I'd not say they are better, just slightly different in the way they handle things and stat changes. For...
And the Courage test for 'On Your Own' is void. (Probably because of the 'remove model failing C test - change) I like the original version better for small...

Thanks for the information! Small skirmish is the intent. As in: less than 20 figures per warband/player. Good news: there's a LOTR (modified) game at...
... Auxilia spears, yes, as this means that if they (and legionairy's) can keep formation they should be able to handle the Celts, but once the fight developes...
At Historicon, I ran a skirmish game using the Napoleonic variant and the Alamo company rules from LoTOW. Extra people showed up and we let them in. This...
Thanks for the report. I thought the Alamo rules might work well for other eras. Glad to know it works. Jon Christenson To: LOTRvariants@yahoogroups.com From:...

Ahoy! I uploaded the 1.1 version. I made up some point cost, but I still didn't have the chance to test the game. A PDF would be nice, but I think it's a long...

Hello everybody I've been a rather silent member of this group, but I come out of the shadows today with a question: is there a LOTR variant suitable for...
Hi Xavier, those rules should meet your requirements, if you need stats for any specific personalities, just select a hero from LOTR that you imagine him to be...
Thank you for your answer. I think we are going to have a try at playing with that LOTR variant, maybe using some ideas from the Cry Havoc series fan community...
