The Lord of the Rings: Strategy Battle Game

A tabletop miniatures wargame set in Middle‑Earth that stages skirmishes and larger battles between iconic peoples and characters from the books and films. Players collect and field painted plastic and metal miniatures organized into forces, then take turns moving models, resolving shooting and close combat, and managing command, courage and special abilities through structured movement, shooting and fighting phases. Advanced rules cover magic, wargear, cavalry and siege warfare, while scenario rules and fortress/siege mechanics support narrative and objective‑based encounters. The core rules consolidate previous editions into a comprehensive rulebook for army building, modeling and play.
