Has anyone ever come up with a computation on figure costs from scratch. I see here as well as other lists that have variants and created figure classes and...
Here you go, I think some of the points have to be adjusted to be in line with more recent editions:  http://membres.lycos.fr/l01c/lotrcostcalc.html  Sam ...
I take the cost of Mr. Average Warrior 3/4+ 3 3 1 1 3 = 5pts & Hero 4/4+ 4 4 2 2 4 2/1/1 = 40pts and work from there, generally 1 point of stat increase costs...
... this is actually what caused me to finally give up in my LOTR variant. Without costs the system isnt balanced. Without it being a balanced game, there's no...
Hi there. Just a quick question - what are the differences in the rules for the three games? I'd guess only LotR has magic and HS and OW have firearms, but is...
... Aside from some rewriting to accommodate for 'period flavor' (initiative is called 'the drop', for example) there are few out-and-out rules changes. One of...
... I'd say that LOTR is the best starting point for you as this includes armour and ancient weapons. Its also the first system and so is more accurate and...
Thanks for the information. I actually really enjoyed Mordheim's campaign rules so that's a plus for me, but I suppose I don't really need ship to ship rules...
I have a friend of mine that plays Legends of the Old West and he is not impressed with the Alamo's massed combat rules. I personally haven't seen them. I...
AS you mention Star Wars, it wouldbe remiss of me not to direct you to my page for the SW SBG: http://foxwig.com/swsbg.aspx I never finished it, but it's got...
Ah yes, the forces of Morgoth and Sauron were ever fearful of the seas as they were ruled over by one of the Valar; Ulmo, and assisted by the Maiar; Osse. ...
... it ... expansion ... From what I've heard/seen on the net, 'war of the Ring' does seem to be based on the Alamo rules - I wasn't really my thing so never...
This is a long stretch, but has anyone created any stats for a playable demon lord or demonic minions that would fit the scope of the game? Wish to bring...
You can get stats for demons from LOTR, just use the Balrog or Ghulavar as your template, and tweak it to suit your needs. For their stats just go to GWs...
GW's big-battle LOTR game is looking good for a bit of Romanising 9or your current favourite subject) for larger games. I'm not a fan of 30 strong unit games...
I think that 8 strong is just a contubernia ;-) You could use a factor of 10 to have a Century as a unit. I'll have to read the rules first to decise if they...

... I must admit to being a bit excited. I have played big games and have hankered after rules to support them. There is an unofficial LoTR adaptation of the...
Well I will give you some insight on the games since I wrote LotHS and there are a few playtesters of the game here (Dave S). LotHS is based more on LotR than...
... Whilst there are inevitably a lot of similarities and consistency between LoTOW and LoTHS you have to see them as independant games. They both share a...

I wish to add that these rules are rather versatile once you get the general meaning of them. I have used both LOTOW and LOTHS figure stats and ran a game...

I was trying to do a variant of GOMC1 and it uh...failed. The core troop choices were actually really easy to figure out. The special characters you could...
