Hello all. I think LOTR is a fine system and open to a lot of use in other formats, even 40K- my applause to the fine people working on this- but I have to...
I was/am baffled by the Courage stat in LOTR. Rick and Alessio go the sensible way with ranged attacks by listing the number you need to roll equal to or...
It may not be but that sounds so confusing, I just memorise the chart and do not need to look up any results unless its some rarely used combination. If the...
The Couarge test was probably only made different from WH due to it not being allowed to be the same as WH due to the New Line licence, this is also true on...
Hello Bruce- I believe your doing away with the STR vs DEF wound chart in place for a base "7" d12 roll is fantastic! One of my gripes with teaching someone...
Firstly, thanks all for the responses- both positive and negative. If you don't like/have d12's but are interested in a chartless approach to determine...
Maybe this is just me, but I don't know what all this buys you. There's the old adage, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". Well, the "to wound" table is simple...
... The system using d12s has two merits that I can see: 1. No table needed 2. Finer grained than the offical system; if you have a Str 1 higher, you get a (1...
I have to agree with Mickey, the way the wound table works is just not that difficult to learn. One issue that you have not addressed with the d12 roll is that...
Using a D12 for damage can speed up the game (it does for us). Roll the D12 at the same time as you roll the D6s to see who wins the combat. Of course, this...
I seem to have opened a decent can of worms with my last posts about using a d12 to wound. It's great reading all the comments- both positive and negative. We...
I still find the argument against because of the need to have a bucket of D12s viable. As it is you need D6s to hit and then you have to go into your dice...
... I thought this list was about LOTR variants, not Warhammer variants? LOTR is a skirmish game - unlikely to be more than a few archers shooting at the same...

... a warband based skirmish game. Essentially small (or not so small) bands of either Scots or English borderers would engage in cattle raiding, thievery and...
I've played the Border Reivers scenario from Wargames Journal using LotR rules and it worked well. There are stats in the files section here for Conquistadores...
More Reiver Rules are always welcome I moderate Steel Bonnets which is a reivers gaming group so post away and I will put on our group regards Karl ... the ......
The only thing to change really is Bills and Halberds are Known as Jeddart Axes And I would add in a Latch - hand held Crossbow Dogs were Sleuth Hounds and...
Hi all! These mostly colour plates of various historical nationalities would make an excellent painting guide... and now they are a mouse-click away! ...
